has anyone who has the same gigablast router/modem had the same problem, and if so, what solution worked best?

VPN?

also, one machine is xp and the other is win10. i had no issues with my old lynksys router.

Hi, stomps here
Maybe the new router doesn't allow or isn't set to handle 2 connections from the same network client or the IP is now dynamic.

Maybe you'd need to port forward or set up a DMZ like the old days, that's if the router allows it.

Login to the new router and see if there's a setting to auto assign or allow multipla connections
