netgear wireless router DG834G
Hi. I have the above wirless router. I am not a networkin engineer.
But I do know that computers can be networked together. I am assuming that this is a joint wirless modem and router combination. I have 2 PCs connected (via a cable) to the router and can surf the internet on both. Can I network the 2 PCs so that I can see the contents of the other PC. Desmond. |

Desmond Uninstall ZoneAlarm.. you don't need it. That router has a pretty good firewall built in, which unless you've deliberately disabled it, is more than good enough. Once ZA is disabled and you've enabled File sharing in XP, you'll be up and running. Rarius |

I dont have this menu item. For first-time users, the Network Wizard is the best way to start networking. You configure the host PC under WinXP Pro, then create a floppy to do the other PC automatically. This works. For test purposes, on each PC select (highlight) one folder, then Right Click for /Properties, then select to Share this (with no password.) When you see the PCA test folder from PCB (and vice versa) you can add Sharing for other folders to suit your convenience. On the microsoft.public NGs for networking you are likely to find more specific answers to your questions e.g. see http://www.practicallynetworked.com/...rksetupwiz.htm -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada) |
