I have 2 computers. One is an iMac G4 and it is connected on the Internet through a cable model (PPPoE protocol). The other one is an iBook and it is connected to the iMac G4 through an ethernet hub.
I connect the iMac on the Internet and then activate Internet Sharing. I configure the iBook so that it uses the DHCP protocol. It gets its address from the iMac with no problem and consider it as its router.
Checking mail works fine but browsing the web works poorly on the iBook. When I enter the web addres, it finds the web site and start getting the different elements of the web page. This is where it gets stuck. Sometimes it manages to get one or two elements and gets stuck, but most of the times it doesn't display anything. It looks like the web requests are not answered. Oh by the way, it's not the web site having problem, because the iMac can access the web site with no problem at the same time.
Any suggestions?
