Ok, I got my home network running just fine. I also got my ICS running great too. But here is my question. Is there any way to set my computer to dial-up the Inet when my Wife's computer requests it? Right now she has to activate the connection on my comp then use hers to do what she wants. I am running Win98se on both comps and dial-up connection (unfortunately I guess our town is too backward or not important enough to get anything but 56k). Thanx for all those helping us Network Newbies.

Should be a checkbox to check for that in the ICS options. I can't remember where it is though since I haven't run anything but Win2K in forever.

It's in the access properties on the sharing PC somewhere. I do remember that...just don't remember where exactly. If you use the Help function and look up Internet Connection Sharing it should tell you where.
