    Fluke concept not able to understand
    Hi everyone read this with patience.

    V have a 190 kbps cable modem in our office and what I have done is. Using 2 nic cards in one of our system I have shared the internet using internet sharing concept that too after struggling using FREE PROXY as it was timing out daily. So for that reason I used internet sharing concept. Now the problem is I have connected about 5 systems and 1 laptop using internet sharing . When I remove the laptop connection and plug the LAN wire to a stand alone system and configure it . Its showing that it has LIMITED or LESS CONNECTIVITY . Do anyone have idea how to solve this issue or set the proxy easily by other means or solutions help me .
    Thank u :( :confused:

    What a convoluted way of sharing your connection.
    You need a SINGLE Router as this setup is overly complex.
    Now the exact type you need depends on your internet connection, either Cable or DSL.
    Here's a coupld of How-To's for networking
    Wired networking Guide
    Wireless Networking Guide
    Should give you some more ideas.

    Remember the KISS Principle.

    When I first got my Cable connection at home I used WinProxy to do it the way you are doing it. At the time a broadband router was over $100. When I switched to a router, my connection became more stable, faster and more secure.

    Now you can get a wireless one for around $50. Doesn't make sense not to get one.

    I think that's a kit that uses electrical wiring instead of ethernet cabling.
