I have a Dynamode Broadband router connected to an XP PC by ethernet and
Vista connected by Wi-Fi to a laptop. The broadband sharing works fine but I have just spent all day trying to get the PC to talk to the Laptop and vice versa for printer and file sharing and just cannot get anything working. The documentation I have got is abysmal!. Can anyone give me a lead as to what I should do in what order? Mervyn Thomas |

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings,http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is allowed to be shared. Vista File and Printer Sharing- http://www.microsoft.com/technet/net.../vista_fp.mspx Basic XP - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/pro...lesharing.mspx Advanced XP - http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;304040 Printer Sharing XP - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/u...utt_july2.mspx Windows Native Firewall setting for Sharing XP - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/875357 Windows XP patch for Sharing with Vista - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922120 Jack (MVP-Networking).
