How to share ADSL Internet access-Implementation of multi-host ADSL Internet access sharing |

There are two ways to achieve Internet sharing: "software Internet sharing" and "Hardware Internet sharing. "Software Internet sharing" is to set a computer as a proxy server, which can be shared by gateway or proxy server software. Commonly used proxy software includes Wingate and Sygate. However, this method requires a computer to be on to allow the entire network to access the Internet. "Hardware Internet sharing" means Internet access is shared through the routing function of the ADSL modem or shared by a separate router. Because the price of a router is much lower than that of a computer, we recommend that you use "Hardware sharing "...... There are only three steps for ADSL Internet sharing: 1. Single-host dial-up Internet access. 2. multi-host network interconnection. 3. Use a proxy server or route dial-up sharing. |

When talking about Internet sharing, you may first think of common tools such as Wingate or Sygate. But the principle of personal installation is to install as few software as possible, so here we will talk about how to use "Internet Connection Sharing" in win2003 to achieve ADSL Internet sharing. You may be familiar with the implementation methods in win200 0 and WINXP, since the implementation methods in win2003 are significantly different from those in the former, this article only introduces the implementation methods in win2003.
Method 1:
1. Hardware preparation: Two NICs must be installed on the server computer, one connected to the ADSL modem and the other to the Intranet computer or hub. To save costs, you can connect two machines (servers and clients) to a cross-line connection. Of course, if there are more than one client, you need hub.
2. Create an ADSL dial-up connection.
3. Because win2003 does not configure the client computer for ICs by default, You need to configure it to allow the client computer to access the Internet. The configuration method is as follows:
1) insert a Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition or Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition disc.
2) When the "welcome" Screen appears, click "execute other tasks" and then click "Browse Cd content ".
3) in the "Support/toolsfolder" directory, find netsetup.exe and double-click it.
4) follow the instructions on the screen to restart the machine.
In this case, the bridge is enabled by default.
4. For client computers, after "Internet Connection Sharing" is enabled, the IP address (for example, "Local Connection 2") connected to the Intranet on the server will be automatically set to "192.168.0.1" by the system ". If the IP addresses of other computers in the intranet do not belong to this CIDR Block, the communication may be terminated. Therefore, you can set the I P address of the client computer to the automatic retrieval mode, so you do not need to specify a gateway to achieve Internet sharing.
Method 2:
Of course, this is a very standard installation process, but in the actual installation process, you may have configured ICS and not enabled the bridge. You can also configure the settings for sharing. The setting method is as follows:
1. In the "Network Connection" dialog box, right-click the ADSL connection icon, select "properties", open the "properties" dialog box, and go to the "advanced" tab, select "allow other network users to connect to this computer" in "Internet Connection Sharing.
2. Select the local connection to the Intranet computer or hub from the "home network connection" drop-down list (for example, "Local Connection 2 "). Keep the default settings for other options, and click OK.
Summary
In actual use, it is found that the server startup speed of method 2 is much slower than that of method 1, which is not an order of magnitude at all. Therefore, it is recommended that you use method 1 for configuration. as to why there is a big difference between the two methods and whether the installation is incorrect, I have not found any reason for my learning, and I hope you can give me more advice!
