I have a Win 2K box using ICS to share DSL connection to other PCs. PC had one nic, but decided to install second to try to resolve. Now Win 2K box has 2 nics, one connected to LAN, other connected to DSL via cross-over cable. Host computer (one running ICS) connects\browses fine. Client computers are a different story.

Client computers usually cannot open a Usually "Page Cannot Be Found", sometimes can fine. When client downloads a file from www, it downloads fine (+160k/sec, etc..).

Client computers are Win2k and Win98. 2K connected over RJ45 to 10/100 Switch. Win98 is wireless.

All internal traffic is great. DSL (SBC Yahoo) installs own PPPoE adapter (that is how I did it with one nic). This is what I am sharing. Tried to share NIC attached to DSL but didn't work.
