How to setup Internet Connection Sharing

Internet Connection Sharing with Windows XP

ICS and ICF allow a home user to share an always-on connection with security and without buying a license for expensive firewall software. Even a dial-up link can benefit from ICS and ICF, providing network address translation, addressing, and name resolution services for all the computers on your network plus security.
Setting Up Internet Connection Sharing
You will need to designate a Windows XP computer as the host. This computer must have two network adapters, one for your internal network and one for the Internet connection. Before attempting to enable ICS, verify that the host computer has a working connection to the Internet through the network card connected to the cable modem or DSL line, or on the network connection associated with the modem. The easiest way to enable ICS is to use the Network Setup Wizard, by following these steps:

1. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to Communications, and then click Network Setup Wizard.
2. Click Next until you see the Select a connection method screen.
3. Click This computer connects directly to the Internet, and complete the wizard to install ICS.

This method has several advantages in that the wizard automatically detects the connection to the Internet, configures Internet Connection Firewall (ICF), bridges multiple network adapters connected to your home network and creates a log of information about the configuration named nsw.log in the Windows folder.
Turning on ICS manually is almost as easy as using the wizard except that you need to create the bridge for multiple network cards before enabling ICS. (See an earlier column, Building Network Bridges for more information on how to use the bridging capability in Windows XP.) Then take these steps:

1. In Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections and then click Network Connections.
2. Click the local area network (LAN) connection or the dial-up networking connection that you want to share (that is, the one that connects to the Internet), and then, under Network Tasks, click Change settings of this connection.
3. Disable Client for Microsoft Networks and File and Print Sharing for Microsoft Networks by clearing the check boxes shown in Figure, This step is extremely important. Never leave these items enabled for any network card that is directly connected to the Internet
   
4. Click the Advanced tab, and select the Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection check box.
5. 

1. You can enable or disable the allowing of other users to control the connection—users don't need to be able to control the connection to use it.
2. Under Internet Connection Firewall, select the Protect my computer and network by limiting or preventing access to this computer from the Internet check box for this network card, unless you have another firewall between the computer and the Internet. This is very important.
3. Click OK, and Internet Connection Sharing will be enabled.

Note: You must have administrative rights to enable ICS. After enabling ICS, verify that Internet connectivity is still functional on the host computer before testing the client computers. Remember to leave the host computer on all the time or turn it on before the other networked computers, so the client computers can request an IP address from the host.

The song is so legendary among these children are considered potent create cheerful atmosphere increases. Apparently, the influence of the song that has dragged Scorpie Ryan, 29 years old, for the collection hobby model trains.

Although she was not originating from the train engineer's family, especially state officials associated with the train, but his love of this world thrive. There's always the curiosity to pursue the value of tradition in the train. From there, historical knowledge and human capabilities can be sorted one by one.
"Actually, I met (this hobby) by Uncle. He was indeed a heavy hobby collecting toy trains, "said the man was familiarly called Yopie. Through his uncle's hobby, Yopie admitted fascinated with the collection of model trains.
Previously, no Yopie occurred if there are producers in the world specially made replicas of real trains. The design is very similar to the original. Like the twin forms only. Even down to the detail that is very small.

"From the start I did like the train (the fire). But I did not think, if there are miniature really like the original. Usually it is called train-keretaan was carried away. Do not use rail and yes normal form, "the story of the early interest Yopie with this unique hobby.
Because fell in love at first sight, Yopie followed his uncle's footsteps. Since September 1993, he decided to pursue this hobby. From there he did great massage story behind making this train. Including the original railway history.
Now, Yopie has collected a locomotive (train head) of 17 men followed the car around 50. "Ah, my collection is not just how. There was a lot less. After all I (do) with my uncle said, "said the father of two children was lowered.

It Is
Unlike the Yopie, Antono Yuwono (40) admitted penchant for collecting miniature train just came to me. Flows are. He did not remember for sure, what made him in love chasing the mini train line.
"What I remember the first Bandung, there are shops whose name Sarinah Bandung. The store was large but only one floor only. In it, there is a train layout. Well, if you want to run the train, we must pay, "said the bespectacled man had started the story. Apparently, the toy train that has attracted the attention of young Antono. He was impressed with the toy train that moves on the rails. Sweet memories of long tails.
"What a coincidence, my son loved her little time to train. Yes, I bought a train at regular toy stores, "continued Antono. The effort to please the little disappointment was fruitful. Antono upset with the forms of this train. "Tracks just ordinary plastic. (Form) wheels, too casual. No one istimewalah. "In fact, he did not regard it as a replica rail genuine. There was no bearings or ballast in it.
From this series of disappointments, it Antono more curious. Parahyangan University architecture graduates are starting left-right questions. Try to find out any information about the true model trains. Finally, the search effort that reached the top. Walking in a popular mall in Jakarta, Antono find a hobby shop that sells a variety of model trains. What is clear, it's not a replica grade category mediocre. Dicinta top side dish arrived.
From there, Antono likes collecting miniature model trains. One by one, bought the train set. Nothing seemed already tens train filled the house. Then, satisfied him? "No, I keep this hobby seriously and not play games. Search information still do. The difference is, I find out the story behind the making of history in the train (the fire) and other relevant information, "said business development director of PT. Modernland it.

Learning History
Just so you know, Antono also fond of historical value in a train. For him, like a miniature train is not only seen from a unique design but also related to the history that accompanies.
According Antono, railways face is always adjusted to the ability and human knowledge in his time. That is why, the form of railway history always reflects the nuances, so have a different artistic value from time to time. "From there it was obvious how humans developed the technology. See the models train times before the First World War and after the Second World War, penampilanya very different, "said Antono.
In addition, the excavation of history is important impact in this hobby. Everything useful that we do not feel trapped in choosing a miniature. "Hobbies are the same as hobbies (collection) others, because if you want to be lived not inexhaustible. We might just buy a home, "he said, smiling Antono. So, that's why we must be clever in choosing. Do not let it be a collection of worthless goods.
Yopie any Antono agree with this. Extensive knowledge not only useful when selecting, but also affects the arrangement of the train on the tracks, assembling a miniature train should not carelessly. Must know the rules.
"Train (fire) is arranged according to their respective era. Proverbial, it locomotives Argo Bromo must pull passenger coaches. There's no history that was interesting loko Jabotabek train car, "explained Yopie.
Yopie words, people who are classified as a true collector, understands the rules. They were very careful in preparing a series of collections of model trains. Moreover, a miniature train manufacturers sometimes release a series of train separately. Could lokomotifnya first on the market, then followed by a carriage. Or vice versa.

Emperor Train
Of the many collections that, Yopie model trains Emperor Wilhelm II (1890 - 1905). Train replica of the German Empire in the 19th century to early 20th century that includes a special edition. The objects were made in limited quantities.
Märklin (read: Maerklin) the manufacturer, released in 1996. This is the second series.
"His first series, copied from the prototype used a train of King Ludwig II in the mid-19th century," said Antono who has this special train.
When the model trains of King Ludwig II superior in detail, the train German emperor is interesting because luxury. Look carefully at the contents of the miniature cars.

In addition to prioritizing the interior details, design Märklin train is in accordance with the actual shape. Complete with a dark green color, color trends in accordance with the railways in those days that tend to dark.

There are about 30 pieces of cars and locomotives owned by Wilhelm II's. One of them, locomotive named, Dampflok Class S10. Originally, this cab Schwartzkopf engines manufactured in 1911.
In addition to collecting model trains, Antono also built a railway urban landscape in one corner of his house. Complete with miniature buildings, warehouses, trees, equipment and image station people in the past.
