Hi..
I have a number of pc's that are connected through hubs and switches to a set aside pc that has the main internet connection. Although I can ping to the pc that has the main internet connection, I can not connect to internet on those other pc's.
Can you please help me to rectify the problem.
Many thanks.
 
Do you have a router? If you don't have a router then that is why the other pc's don't have an internet connection unless you are using ICS and then i'm still not sure if it will work properly.
 
If you are using switches, you need a router or a computer with a Server OS that has DNS capabilities in order to let all computers in the LAN to use the internet.
