Connect to the Internet using ICS
The PAN server can share a network connection with PAN clients with Windows ICS. ICS
(Internet Connection Sharing) uses NAT (Network Address Translation) to share a
network connection. PAN clients use internal network addresses (192.168.0.x). ICS is
suitable for both dial-up and LAN connections.
For more detailed information about ICS and NAT, please refer to the Microsoft Windows
help topic "Internet Connection Sharing".
See "Section 3.2: Connect Two Computers", and complete Steps

Refer to steps outlined in "Section 3.4.1 Connect to the Internet
using ICS", to set up Internet sharing.
