Hello and welcome to this webboard elito.
How is the network setup? ICS? Why not through a routern? What do yo mean with "mainly when we are traveling? Please provide more details.
Hi Eddy, looks that you don't know what Connectify does. It transforms your computer into a hotspot, using the internet connection that you have, either wired or wireless. So, by definition, it enables ICS.
This comes handy when you are traveling with family (a computer each) and the hotel only provides ONE internet connection. Using Connectify, you allow everybody to connect thru your computer, even if the internet connection provided is wireless.
Having explained this (more info on
www.connectify.me), the fact is that Avast blocks this somehow, because it only works if I disable the Avast firewall. I have contacted the Connectify support and their message is as follows
At a minimum, DualServer.exe (ConnectifyNetServices.exe in 2.1 Beta 3) needs to be allowed to access the network, and ports 67 and 68 for DHCP, and port 53 (DNS), as well as 1317, 1318, and 1303 (internally used ports for DHCP and DNS), need to be open. Connectify 2.1 Beta 3 will try to configure Windows firewall to open all necessary ports.I don't know what should I do exactly with this info. Help is appreciated. Thanks
