How to: Share your Internet with any Device (Windows 7 Version)

WILL PROBABLY NOT WORK WITH NINTENDO DS AND WII. There are exceptions, but dont ask me why some work and some dont.

I have promissed this Tutorial for some time now, so here it is. For all the Newcomers and I would suggest to watch the Windows XP Version also since it contains way more information for starters.

Windows XP tutorial:    • How to: Share your internet with any ...  

Important: DONT SKIP THE IP CONFIGURATIONS SINCE WINDOWS IS TO STUPID TO DO IT PROPERLY AUTOMATICALY! (SAME GOES FOR MOST DEVICES)

Important parts:

Ip configuration of the computers:
Comp1:
IP: 192.168.0.1 (means that the computer is first in the network and in charge)
Subnetmask: Appears automaticly and has to be same on both comps
!THE OTHER FIELDS LEAVE BLANK!

Comp2:
IP: 192.168.0.2 (means that this Computer is secound in network)
Subnetmask: Got to be the same as on Comp1
Standardgateway: 192.168.0.1 ( Tells the computer to connect to the internet throug Comp1 IP)

DNS Server: The DNS Server is the adress server of your Internetprovider.

To get the DNS Server you got to connect with the Intenet on Comp1. Then go Start - All Programm - Accesoirs- Command Prompt

In the black window that appears you enter: ipconfig /all
That gives you all the current network configurations including the ones of your internet connection.Search there for the DNS Server adresses (It should be 2, but 1 should also work)

!!!DONT FORGET TO OPEN UP THE IP´S IN YOUR FIREWALL SETTINGS!!!!!
(If you dont know how, look in the manual)
