Wireless Internet Connection Sharing

[airforce101t]

Ok, heres the problem: I have a wireless networking witha D-link router and satellite internet. The internet goes directly into my primary computer (USB connection only). The problem is that when i try to share the connection i get the error in the pic bellow. I guess my router and ICS are trying to use the same IP address and I dont know how to change either one.

ANY help would be appreciated.

My first question is why are you using internet connection sharing when you have a router? Does it not have more then 1 port on it? Internet connection sharing via windows is pretty inefficent and will make your machine run slower as well as your internet connection so the best option would be to have both machines plugging into the router.

 

One possibility possibilty is that the other machine isnt using DHCP, to do this in XP goto start, control panel, internet options, Connections, LAN settings, and check the box that is auto-detect settings. If the other machine isnt XP say what OS its running and Illl tell you how to check.
