Lan settings

[Dr. Bullet]

I'm trying to set up my router so I can transfer files between my computers, but I have no idea how to do it. I can't find what I need on google The computers are all connected to a dlink router, which is then connected to the cable modem.

Thanks

Well all I can think of is if you have a firewall make sure you allow LAN.

Also is it XP to XP? Have you run the home networking wizard?

also u might wanna right click the folders you are wanting to share, and click the sharing tab

So can we assume that since he has not posted since...the advice we gave him has totally screwed his computers up.

Sorry, I've been totally absorbed in backing up and formatting

I'll try it a little later It'll be XP to 2KPro

Ohhh...that should be a bit easier.

It is harder to do so because on Windows ME and 98 it doesn't have a "User" built in. So it causes problems when you are trying to network with one that does.

W2k Has a built in User which is where windows XP gets the user from.

Anywho it should be pretty easy...not as easy as Xp to Xp but...
