    I have a very small home network (2 computers) and i want to share the connection .

    The one with the internet connection is set to 192.168.0.1
    The one without is set to 192.168.0.2

    They are connected via a cross over network cable.

    I set up the network with the network set up wizard and i said the computer that has the internet connection has to share it and on the other computer i said it was to connect though another computer.



    Now what do i do?
