Now that you have completed creating your client set up disk we need to do a configuration check of your Host Machine.

2) On the Host machine, right click on the NAV Icon for Direcpc (Direcway) on the task bar in bottom right hand corner. Click on About; then click on System Information. Look in the right-hand window that is titled, Turbo Internet Information (figure 38) Write down the Adapter IP. Make sure you write it down exactly as it is listed.

3) Now go to Network Neighborhood on your desktop and right-click on it. Then choose Properties; this will take you to the same Network window we were in when we initially setup the network.


 

 

Note!
There will be a lot more entries in the Network Configuration screen.

Note!
If you do not see the line TCP/IP (shared) => Satellite USB Device in the Host's Network Neighborhood Properties, then ICS is not correctly set up on the host.
(See the red arrow in figure 39)

4) Now make sure you are on the configuration tab. Find and highlight TCP/IP => Internet Connection Sharing as you see in figure 39. Then click on Properties, and click on the IP Address Tab in the TCP/IP window (figure 40).

5) Now choose Specify an IP Address. If the address that you copied from NAV System Info isn't there, type it in the white bar exactly as it was written in the system info (figure 40).

This is an example of what your IP address might look like. 10.111.35.82
Then go to Subnet Mask and type in 255.255.255.0. Now click OK. Then click OK again and you should be back to the desktop.

This completes the ICS setup on the Host computer.
