Hi,
I wonder if you can help me, I have 3 computers that I am trying to network via a US Robotics broadband router (which is then connected to a modem for the internet). 1 PC is Windows ME, the other 2 are WindowsXP... all 3 PC's are DHCP enabled and receive an IP address from the router.
I am trying to enable the PC's to be able to see each other and transfer files between them. So far all 3 PC's can gain access to the internet and can ping the router but cannot ping each other. I have put each PC in the same workgroup, shared a folder and are in the same subnet etc but I'm still having no joy :-( Am I forgetting something or missing something out? Will a Broadband router work for transferring files or is it only usable for allowing mutiple PC's to access the internet?
If anyone can help me I'd greatly appreciate it...
Thanks & best wishes
Kelina
