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. -- Best of luck! Michael D. Alligood MCSA, MCP, CCNA, A+, Network+, i-Net+, CIW A, CIW CI "AG Young" wrote in message ... Doug, I am using the Netgear MR814v2 router. How can I be sure this router firewall is enabled? Thank you. "Doug Sherman [MVP]" wrote in message ... 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.

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. "Doug Sherman [MVP]" wrote in message ... 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. Doug Sherman MCSE Win2k/NT4.0, MCSA, MCP+I, MVP |
