I have a windows 2000 desktop with aol on it. I have a laptop with windows
XP and a wireless accesspoint that connects them. I want to enable the
internet connection sharing so that the XP laptop will use the W2K modem to
dial into aol. I know this is an unusual thing to do but just understand
that this is how things need to be done. Usually when you want to enable
this setup you select the connection under dial up connections right click,
properties then there is a tab and checkbox for enabling sharing of this
connection, however I do not see the aol connection in the dial up panel. I
know it works with other service providers. Is there a way to get aol to
show up in that panel. Is there something I am missing. I am not the
foremost authority on ICS so I am looking for advice or things to look for.
Thanks in advance!!
