Question about 'Can't access some websites while using a shared PPPoE connection'

I read the article with much interest, because I am having this exact problem on
my network. I recently acquired a XP box and would like to use ICS to connect 3
other PCs - a ME and 2 95s. The 95s work fine but the ME will not connect to certain
websites. I tried the ping from the ME and could never reach the host PC, no matter
how small the setting! Another curious thing is that the ME box has an IP address
of 192.168.0.248. The others are like 1,2 and 3. I wonder if this i contributing
to the problem. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks,

First of first, once you have configured ICS, all client machines should all be configured
using DHCP. ICS can take care most of the rest.
My problems are: (1). All client machines seem having slower Internet access speed.
(2). All client machines still have problem accessing some web pages, especially
if sites need SSL. (3). Outlook Express on client machines are not able to reach
hotmail server (not always, but most time). I am using AT&T broadband, I am not
sure if it has something to do with my problems.

I have a Win2000 box running ICS that provides internet access for an ME computer.
For a while I couldn't figure out why the ME comp couldn't get to certain websites.
Then I noticed all the websites were ones that used SSL. I just found this workaround,
which works great for me:

The article at http://www.allensmith.net/Network/xpICS.htm has been updated. The
NEW second page explains the problem of using ICS with PPPoE Internet access, then
presents the real solution.

Interesting. I tried changing my MTU size before I found the workaround I first
posted, but it didn't seem to help anything.

That KB article seems to tell how to try and ajust the MTU on the PPPoE. It is the
MTU for the Ethernet adapter on (each and every) ICS Client computer that needs to
be ajusted to the correct (lower) value.
Otherwise, if my original work-around is what works for you, then possibly just leave
it at that.
