2 Differents Network Sharing 1 Internet

[mephisto_007]

Hi, how do I achieve a completly 2 different network groups sharing the same Internet Connection?

eg:

WG = Workgroup

WG A is sharing SAME INTERNET

WG B is sharing SAME INTERNET

WG A cannot access WG B or vice versa (not just by changing the WG name under System Properties ---> Computer Name, because they'll be able share printers and folders)


Equipments: 1 Internet Modem, 1 Router, 2 Hubs, XP OS.

Default gateway must be the same for both A and B
for example: 192.168.0.1
and WG A is 192.168.1.1/255
and WG B is 192.168.2.1/255
all Ip's are assigned manualy

and WG B is 192.168.2.1/255
all Ip's are assigned manualy

specifically, the NETMASK controls the ability to route traffic thru the net and
in this case, all devices need 255.255.252.0

-Default Gatway for both A and B are the same (192.168.1.1)
-Subnet Mask for both are the same (255.255.255.0)
-I've assigned all IPs, A (192.168.1.x) and B (192.168.2.x) both cannot communicate but also goes with the Internet. What did I do wrong?

I don't know if this is the right procedure but just now I did some random input and the result came out as I wanted.

-Default Gatway for both are the same (192.168.1.1)
-IPs doesn't need to change and must be in the range of (192.168.1.x)
-The only thing that I've change is the Subnet Mask (A=255.255.255.0 - B=255.255.0.0)

Subnet Mask (A=255.255.255.0 - B=255.255.0.0)

just make both like B and you can communicate both ways each system
should be able to ping the other as well as your ISP.

then file/print sharing can be setup
(be sure to enable it in your firewall; ports 139, 445 for tcp/udp)
