personal observations

Regarding networking (5270): 1. Vista upon installation acknowledged ICS with XP computer. 2. Network wizard is wireless oriented. 3. Network computers not displayed - UNC required for connecting. 4. Sharing folders not as clear-cut as with XP 5. What happened to the capability to have monitor representation of each connection on task bar?

I highly recommend that you use a Cable/DSL Router instead of ICS.
P.S. Using ICS with Comcast is against the rules (Read the Comcast EULA).

P.S. (continued) ICS is also not very good Security Wise, a Cable / DSL Router (with an IP Restricted NAT) is much better Security Wise.

Computer providing ICS does so through cable modem - have no problem with Vista computer accessing internet through ICS - in fact it worked immediately after installation of build 5270 without any effort on my part.
