The hardest thing I ever wrote was just a fun project. It was intended to be a screen saver and was written to run under dos of all things! At the time 640x480 resolution was HiRes and nobody did any real 3d graphics mapping in that res. My screen saver …

Sure Darren, How 'bout this. Engineer a secure network design with an internal LAN of say 100 users, that all need Internet access through a shared T1. The situation: The network has one Exchange server, 1 FTP server, 2 Citrix servers, 1 SQL server along with a Voice over IP …

The NIC may not be dead, you may have a bad cable connection or the switch port you are plugging into does not correctly negotiate autoconnect speed with the NIC you are using. Try a new cable first. Best choice is to borrow one from a pc you know is …

It's a file left over from removing ZoneAlarm. Try this. Editing the registry is the fastest method, but you have a lot more potential to cause serious problems. If you decide to proceed, use caution. Deleting the wrong entry can cause applications to fail, your computer to become unstable or …

If it's a t1 you will need a router which can act as your dhcp server and firewall also if you're not too nervous. You can get a Router with a TSU/DSU built in or you can use an external one, but you will need one. ISP may provide both, …

Try pushing what ever button the Dlink has provided to set all it's settings back to factory default and then reconfigure it from scratch. There may be a setting that was used in the cable modem environment that is inappropriate now.

That about says it all, just curious, where are you getting the 6-8 K bytes per second report from? It's pretty much standard that these speeds be reported in bits per second. Try the speed test from dslreports.com, it will report it in kbps as it should be.

To test your connection, place one of your pcs directly on your modem, instead of the router, your ISP will ask you to do this anyway. Make sure you reboot your machine or reset the IP address information as they sent it to you. Next, do an extended PING to …

You haven't mentioned if you're using dial on demand in ICS. If so, if your machine that is sharing its connection is not already connected to the Internet does it try to dial when the other machine tries to access the Internet?

Also make sure you're not running any protocols on the 98 machines other than tcpIP,you will often find Netbuei lurking in there. And yes definetly, dump the Internet connection sharing and get a router asap. ICS is nothing but trouble and doesn't give you any sort of protection.
