Lost connection to internet

[Smidget]

I changed the workgroup of another w2k computer. Now it is unable to connect to the internet. I tried another NIC, changed some network settings (before turning them back) still nothing.

Has someone come across this before? It was just some non-descript workgroup (a name I made up that doesn't make sense) And now I forget what the name was? Would this be pivotal?

Or is there a way to reset the settings to have windows reset it's internet settings. I have gone through the NETWORK ID setup and still no go.

Anyone?

My guess is that you somehow have your local connection bound to that workgroup, but someone with more knoledge then me will have to elaborate on that.

to be able to use internet shareing on a lan, all computers must be in the same work group as the main system that has the ics connection.

Check. I set them both to 'WORKGROUP'.

However that doesn't explain why it was working before with 2 different workgroups.
