Sharing internet connecton without switch
I've got two computers and I want to share the Internet connection for them.
Look at the picture:

Computer1 has two NIC's, one labelled WAN (connected to modem) and other called LAN (connected to another computer, cross-over cable)
Computer1 WAN connection uses DHCP.
What are the manual network settings for the Computer1 LAN and for the Computer2?
Computer1 has a working Internet acces but the other computer just won't go to Internet.

It worked out with these settings:
When wan interface was shared the windows set LAN interface on static ip.
Then using DHCP on computer2 I managed to gain Internet-acces on both machines.

But what are the manual network settings for the Computer1 LAN interface and for the Computer2?
(Computer1 WAN:

Using dhcp on LAN connections and then bridging the two interfaces on computer1 didn't work.
