ICS - No longer functioning.
My setup:
Windows 7 Home 64bit - quad CPU - 8GB ram - Available Virtual memory 14GB
NIC 1 Internet - trying to re-setup ICS
NIC 2 XBOX360
What happened recently:
Everything worked fine with ICS, however I wanted a router with wire + wireless connections so I could use the wii and DS wirelessly.
I installed a cysco linksys router (wrt300n) last week.
During the setup it said it needed to disable ICS so it could manage the connections.
Everything worked fine for the week I had this setup.
Due to lack of funds and an emergency hospital visit, I had to return the router to pay the bills.
So now I'm trying to reset up my network with ICS but I'm getting errors.
Problem:
when trying to share it says:
"When Internet connection sharing is enabled, your LAN adapter will set to use IP address 192.168.137.1"
In the past I've noticed that it sets to "192.168.0.1" so I thought this was odd, maybe not relevant but still seemed odd.
When I click "YES" to proceed with enabling ICS I get this error for Network Connections: "An error occurred while Internet Connection Sharing was being enabled. (null)"
Possible pertaining problems: windows logs, i get these two logs showing up.
Source: Microsoft-Windows-SharedAccess_NAT
Event ID: 34001
Level: Error
Description:
The ICS_IPV6 failed to configure IPv6 stack.
and
Source: Microsoft-Windows-SharedAccess_NAT
Event ID: 34005
Level: Warning
Description:
The ICS_IPV6 was unable to allocate bytes of memory. This may indicate that the system is low on virtual memory, or that the memory manager has encountered an internal error.
Things I've tryed:
- Uninstalling cysco network magic
- Uninstalling and reinstalling NIC's from device manager.
- Manual IP address assigment (192.168.0.2) for NIC 2 XBOX360.
- Automatic IP address assignment for NIC 2 XBOX 360.
- Check that the following services were enabled and running.
- Application Layer Gateway Service
- Network Connections
- Network Location Awareness (NLA)
- Plug And Play
- Remote Access Auto Connection Manager
- Remote Access Connection Manager
- Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
- Telephony
I tried to keep this short and simple. sorry if its long.
I attached two images showing the ICS response and error.
