USB Internet and a home network

red_ice · 2010-10-27 14:32:35

Hey Have vodafone got some restrictions on connection sharing on a private home network? Basiclly i have a USB Dongle jobbie which i tried to share on my server. On the server, the connection is shared, i have my local area network working fine that connects to the server... yet another node cannot get onto the internet…

Hey

Have vodafone got some restrictions on connection sharing on a private home network?

Basiclly i have a USB Dongle jobbie which i tried to share on my server. On the server, the connection is shared, i have my local area network working fine that connects to the server... yet another node cannot get onto the internet for some reason.

I mean, its a bog standard, meat and two veg network that worked previously in another location, the only difference is that its a USB dongle for the connection now...

Any ideas?

Cheers

USB Key is in a USB slot on the server (PC). That connection is shared, but noone on the network can get access.
