Old Router, new dongle question?

Thanks again Jakes147, much appreciated, it seems to be working fine ('cept for the data leak/trickle issue.)

Last question: This seems to hinge on having an Internet Gateway in network connections, although none of the solutions I've looked at thru Google make mention of an Internet Gateway or even putting in a default gateway address, although mine doesn't seem to work without one? (I've set the laptop to obtain ip to auto. and it seems to create this gateway itself)

Edit: seemed to have stop the "leak" by disabling UPnP Device Host and SSDP Discovery Service in services.msc - will see if that causes any issues itself.
 
Just when I thought everything was fine ICS stops working :mad::mad::mad:

I'm stumped :confused: :cry:

I have done this:
reset router, restart PC's
setup router for WiFi, phone shows connected fine
Internet available fine on 1st PC through 8ta adaptor
change router ip from 192.168.2.1/255.255.255.0 to 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0, login again to router - fine
other computer - obtain ip auto.
enable ICS on 8ta adapter
LAN adapter ip changes to 192.168.0.1 (as expected)
2nd PC ip = 192.168.0.4/255.255.255.0
Files on 2nd PC visible & accessible via "my network places"
No Internet on 2nd PC or phone via Ethernet nor via WiFi!!! :wtf::wtf: It was working fine a few days ago!!!

Internet doesn't seem to be getting to the router, as if although ICS enabled on 1st PC, that PC is blocking the internet to the router. Pinging 192.168.0.1, 192.168.42.19 (8ta adaptor's ip set to auto) and 192.168.0.4 - all fine. I've tried turning off XP's firewall, tried restarting the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service in cmd/services.msc, restarted all machines, ipconfig /release & /renew plus a whole lot of other things I can't even remember. En/disable DHCP on router makes no difference except to lose connection with the 2nd PC/WiFi connected phone.
