I don't quite understand that either. I followed the instruction I got from
internet. I set one folder to be shared and give a user privilege to it
(with a password) on each PC, but I cannot see my other PC on either PC.
With MacLan on PC, I can share files between Mac and PC with the hub setup,
but not PC to PC. Without changing an settings, 2 PCs can see each other
right after getting connected with the router. I'd like to know if you know
the reason, or what setting to change for it to happen.
I don't know if it's related to the fact that gateway is a road runner
address. Since I'm part of the big cable network. They might block the
usual pear-to-pear network so it's harder to get hacked??? There should be
a way but I never called their tech support to find out.
Thanks,
Changhsu Liu
