I have a PII 350 PC running Windows 98SE connected via a 10/100 PCI Fast ethernet card, to an Olivetti Laptop which has a 10 base PCMICA network card, and running Windows 95. I use a crossover CAT 5 cable. The computers are able to share files and printers. I installed ICS on the PC.
The problem is the client olivetti can cause the PC to dial an intenet connection, but can not access web addresses. Nor will it access web addresses if the internet is connected from the Host PC first. Any suggestions as to how to resolve this would be appreciated.
The properties for the network neighbourhood show:

I’ve installed ICS several times now with no difference.
