Sharing the Internet with DialUp Connection

How to use Internet Connection Sharing

To use Internet Connection Sharing to share your Internet connection, the host computer must have one network adapter that is configured to connect to the internal network, and one network adapter or modem that is configured to connect to the Internet.

1) On the host computer

On the host computer, follow these steps to share the Internet connection:
  1. Log on to the host computer as Administrator or as Owner.
  2. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
  3. Click Network and Internet Connections.
  4. Click Network Connections.
  5. Right-click the connection that you use to connect to the Internet. For example, if you connect to the Internet by using a modem, right-click the connection that you want under Dial-up.
  6. Click Properties.
  7. Click the Advanced tab.
  8. Under Internet Connection Sharing, select the Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection check box.
  9. If you are sharing a dial-up Internet connection, select the Establish a dial-up connection whenever a computer on my network attempts to access the Internet check box if you want to permit your computer to automatically connect to the Internet.
  10. Click OK. You receive the following message:
    When Internet Connection Sharing is enabled, your LAN adapter will be set to use IP
    address 192.168.0.1. Your computer may lose connectivity with other computers on
    your network. If these other computers have static IP addresses, it is a good idea to set them
    to obtain their IP addresses automatically. Are you sure you want to enable Internet
    Connection Sharing?
  11. Click Yes.
The connection to the Internet is shared to other computers on the local area network (LAN). The network adapter that is connected to the LAN is configured with a static IP address of 192.168.0.1 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0

2) On the client computer

To connect to the Internet by using the shared connection, you must confirm the LAN adapter IP configuration, and then configure the client computer. To confirm the LAN adapter IP configuration, follow these steps:
  1. Log on to the client computer as Administrator or as Owner.
  2. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
  3. Click Network and Internet Connections.
  4. Click Network Connections.
  5. Right-click Local Area Connection, and then click Properties.
  6. Click the General tab, click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in the This connection uses the following items list, and then click Properties.
  7. In the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog box, click Obtain an IP address automatically (if it is not already selected), and then click OK.

    Note You can also assign a unique static IP address in the range of 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254. For example, you can assign the following static IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway:
       IP Address      192.168.0.2    Subnet mask     255.255.255.0    Default gateway 192.168.0.1      
  8. In the Local Area Connection Properties dialog box, click OK.
  9. Quit Control Panel.

3) To configure the client computer to use the shared Internet connection, follow these steps:
  1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
  2. Click Network and Internet Connections.
  3. Click Internet Options.
  4. In the Internet Properties dialog box, click the Connections tab.
  5. Click the Setup button.

    The New Connection Wizard starts.
  6. On the Welcome to the New Connection Wizard page, click Next.
  7. Click Connect to the Internet, and then click Next.
  8. Click Set up my connection manually, and then click Next.
  9. Click Connect using a broadband connection that is always on, and then click Next.
  10. On the Completing the New Connection Wizard page, click Finish.
  11. Quit Control Panel.
When you now start Microsoft Internet Explorer, the client computer will try to connect to the Internet by using the host computer's shared Internet connection.

Configure WiFi Settings N97mini

First up, we need to find out if you have a Wi-Fi access point for your network. If yes, then you need to find out the security access settings (if security is enabled) and second, if this is a DHCP network or you have to manually configure the settings?

Your choices will be (after you log on to the network):

  1. If Wi-Fi access point is DHCP enabled, then your phone should automatically acquire an IP for use on the network and you are good to go.
  2. If the Wi-Fi access point is not DHCP enabled, then you need to get the IP for your phone. (we will address the manual configuration later when we configure the proxy)

OK. So far so good. Now, if your phone got an IP automatically (as per pt. #1 above) then you would look to set your proxy settings. While people who need to assign an IP manually, need to follow an extra step as follows:

  1. Open your Menu ( this is done by pressing the menu key on your N97 mini) and then to “Settings”
  2. Under “Settings” Go to > “Connectivity” > “Destinations” and finally to “Internet”. (phew!!! that was looooong!!!)
  3. Now, select the access point from the list that you want to configure. Let’s call it “Planet3” (in this example). Now, open Planet3 settings by clicking on it two times (like you double left-click on your PC).
  4. You will now see the settings for the access point. That’s good. Now, click on options button at the bottom left of the screen and select “Advanced Settings” from the list. This will take you to the advanced settings.
  5. In Advanced Settings, You will now see four settings, namely IPv4 settings, IPv6 settings, Proxy Server Address and Proxy port number.
  6. For those whose phone already has an IP set by DHCP, please set the proxy server and proxy port here and then just click OK or Back and close the settings screen and return to the Home Screen and you are finished and ready to use your network at work. For those whose phone needs manual assigning of an IP, please go to next step.
  7. For setting the phone’s network IP manually, click on the IPv4 settings option in the Advanced settings from step 5.
  8. Now, click on Phone IP address and set the IP that you got from your network administrator. Click OK and then set the network DNS by going to DNS addresses and then setting your primary and secondary DNS (if any). Click on OK and exit and then return to Advanced settings menu and set your proxy address and proxy port if you haven’t already done so. That’s it!

There you go. No one told me how to do it. I found out and now I share the same info with you people. Hope you liked it! Please share your comments and don’t forget to tell your friends about this blog! ;-)
