Problems with WinGate: - after it was installed, it changed some of my network settings, and every time I went to the Control Panel->Network, Windows reported an error. If I changed anything, it would change back after restarting. - I couldn't shut the computer down or reboot it. It would just sit there with the wallpaper displayed (wallpaper, it didn't even get to "Windows is shutting down" screen) - even when running, the connection from the other computer worked only about 50% of time - Windows was very unstable when WG was running - couldn't get it to autodial (it always detected that the 'default' connection was deleted and new connection was added at startup) I also tested some other software, but found WinRoute the easiest (and more importantly, working :) . At that time I was using Win98 FE. BTW: don't you have ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) in XP? I'm on Win98 SE now, and I use ICS which comes with Windows. Extremely easy to set up (even easier than WinRoute) Cc> This is going off on a tangent now; do/have you used Tiny's firewall Cc> on your network?
