Default how to find other computers connected to the same router

Sorry, I know you addressed Doug but I have a question about your router. An
MR814v2 is a wireless router. I see that your connected via ethernet cables,
is that correct? Also, you might want to try and reset the router. There
should be a very small reset button on the back.

Doug, I am using the Netgear MR814v2 router.
How can I be sure this router firewall is enabled?
Thank you.

Yes, theXP firewall is designed to protect your computers - primarily

from
incoming connections from the Internet. Unfortunately, this firewall

will
also block communications with your internal network computers. The

good
news is that your router probably includes a firewall which is just as

good
as the one in XP. If so, you don't need the XP firewall. If you want

to
run a firewall on you network computers, use a third party product which

can
be easily configured to allow internal network communication with

specific
computers.

Doug, thank you.

Yes, all my LAN properties firewall is enabled. Is this firewall

supposed
to
protect our office systems, correct? Should I disabled all?

I have enable the NetBIOS over TCP/IP, correct?

Thank you.

On each computer go to Network and Internet connections/Network
connections.
Double click on the Local Area Connection and click the Properties

button:

1. Click the Advanced tab - make sure the firewall is NOT enabled.

2. On the General tab, highlight TCP/IP and click properties.

Click
the
Advanced button, click the WINS tab - make sure NetBIOS is enabled.
