Windows Vista unable to use Internet Sharing through a MacBook
This was working just fine until the Leopard 10.5.6 update a couple of days ago so I'm trying to sort out what is going on.
Black MacBook sharing out a Sprint broadband modem card.
Windows Vista Professional
Network created on the MacBook, using WEP with an 13 character password. Settings in Vista are allowing it to connect just fine (setting security to "Shared"), but it refuses to obtain anything other than "Local Only" access.
I've done everything I can think of to get this thing going again. Any ideas?

I don't have that handy, but I can tell you that it is definitely acquiring an IP address from the MacBook with the proper gateway and subnet.
If you need more than that, I can snag it tomorrow.
