I have a Netgear wireless router (WGR614) with two machines hooked to it. One hardwired with WinXPHome (with modem) and another wireless (laptop, w/ NetGear WG111)). I also only have a dialup connection, so am not using the WAN Broadband port of the router. I have Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) working between the two and can fileshare. Everything in that regard is cool.
In order to get this to work, I'm using ICS and have DHCP on the router turned off and the router IP set to 192.168.0.254...out of the range of ICS automatic settings. Now I want to use VNC so that I can see the modem computer from the wireless laptop. The modem computer has an IP of 192.168.0.1 and currently the laptop is 192.168.0.212. The VNC Service is running on the modem computer. When I try to run the VNC client on the laptop, it takes about 20 seconds or so and reports back "Error connection timed out (10060)" or something close to that. I searched the archives on this list and could only find similiar questions but concerning access from the internet WAN. Doesn't seem like anyone is having any trouble like me...? I read about port forwarding, but don't know if that applies to me, or how to really set that up. I would appreciate any help you all could provide. Thanks!
