Windows internet connection sharing service problem

 

Try to disable your ICF or Internet Connection Firewall, once it is enabled your Internet sharing network is prohibited. You can disable your Internet Connect Firewall by going to “Control Panel” then select “Network Connections” menu. All the directories of network connections will display on your screen.

 

Look through the directories of accessible network connections, then press down your default Internet Connection, on the menu select “Properties” After that a window will automatically open.

 

Select the “Advanced” icon once you are in the “Properties” then look for the box with "Protect my computer and network by limiting or preventing access to this computer from the Internet." Once you found it unmarked it to disable the Internet Connection Firewall.

Please try to disable the Internet Connection Firewall (ICF), as if it is working the Internet sharing network is blocked. Go to Control Panel > Network Connections and then the default Internet Connection. After that select Properties > Advanced > Protect my computer and network by limiting or preventing access to this computer from the Internet. Just uncheck this box and your ICF will be disabled.
