ICS no bueno, FreeProxy great alternative
Bob Mihada, Monday, June 15, 2009ICS has alot of limitations, buggest being the inability to specifiy a default gateway. It's alway 192.168.0.1. For most, this is the default gateway on their LAN. After much wasted effort i came across this, FreeProxy. A godsend of a free blessing to get around the "ICS sucks" factor. They have great documentation and have been widely implemented with great succes, me for one. To boot, it will run right after installation will minimal effort.
