Configuring Static IP Addresses for the Public Interface Requires Changing the Internet Connection Sharing Adapter
This article was previously published under Q261341
Under Network Properties in Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition, when you change the static TCP/IP entries for TCP/IP binding that points to the external network adapter and connects to the Internet, you must also change the TCP/IP binding for the Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) Adapter.
Add the same static IP settings to the TCP/IP binding of the Internet Connection Sharing Adapter. To do this, follow these steps:
- Right-click the My Network Places icon.
- Click Properties.
- Double-click the binding of the TCP/IP, and then click Internet Connection Sharing Adapter.
- Add the required TCP/IP entries assigned to you by your Internet service provider or the system administrator.
- Click OK.
The issue described in the "Symptoms" section can be prevented by modifying only the TCP/IP ICS component in Network Properties. This binding takes precedence over the TCP/IP (Shared) component.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
