Enabling Internet Connection Sharing for Windows Me

1Before you begin, check if you have a working Internet connection and if your home network is working properly (if you have one)

•Check the Internet connection by opening a web page with your browser.

2On the desktop, double-click 'My Network Places' and then double-click 'Home Networking Wizard'.

> The Home Networking wizard will appear.

3In each screen, click Next to continue the wizard until it is finished.

In the wizard you need to select 'Yes' (you are using Internet on this computer) and select 'A direct connection to my ISP using the following device:' and choose the network adapter you use to make contact with the Internet from the list.

4In the next screen, select 'Yes' when asked 'if you want other computers on your home network to use the Internet connection on this computer'.

Choose the network adapter that connects your PC to the SL400i.

5Follow the instructions on the screen, and enter:

-a computer name (unique for each computer, e.g. STUDY or MOM)

-a workgroup name

(the same for all computers in the network, e.g. HOMENET)

Note: these names are not the SSID or network name.

You do not need to share your files and printers

You do not have to make a Home Networking Setup disk. > This concludes the wizard.
