Hi,


When Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) is enabled on an NIC that is connected to the direct Internet line, the second NIC automatically gets the 192.168.137.1 IP address and 255.255.255.0 subnet mask. Since the first IP address of the address range is set on the second NIC of the computer, the other client computers receive the other IP addresses from the same range, for example 192.168.137.2, 192.168.137.3 and so on.


In my case, I already have static IP Network using 10.0.0.0/8 network, I want to change Default IP from 192.168.137.1/24 to 10.0.0.1/8. I managed to change IP in Regedit - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAcces - Parameters - ScopeAddress / StandaloneDHCPAddress


which is working but Default IP 10.0.0.1 has subnet mask 255.255.255.0, how do i change subnet mask to 255.0.0.0.


Please Help...
