Glad its not just me thenI get the same problem with screenshots
Yes it is.Ok is computer 1 the dell the one with CA
On the Systemax (Computer 2) When I click on Entire network I get Microsoft Windows Network click on that I get Mshome click on that I get a blank windowon systemaxpc (computer2) click on entire workgroup. does this give you another page with workgroup if yes click on workgroup does this then show you a page with the dell pc if yes click on that what happens.
I can disable Zone alarm on both do you want me to now? I have disabled both before while unplugged from the broadband connection but this did not helpCan you disable zone alarm on both computers? if not then please remove it from both computers.
On the Systemax I have two entries in Local area connection one is a disabled Ethernet card the second is Wireless network connection the properties show Client for MS windows and File and printer sharing for MS networks are both ticked. Also shown and ticked are QoS packet scheduler, AEGIS Protocol (IEEE 802.1x) v3.2.0.3 and Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)go to control panel click on network connections - there should be an icon saying local area connection right click on this go to propertities do you have
I cant see any reference to an online manual the set up CD does not seem to contain oneDoes any of your paper work that came with the hub have an internet address for help or online manual.
I'm sorry but I dont remember - neither of them show as shared in Status in Network connections - where can I check that?When you ran the Xp network wizard did you tun on ICS(internet connection sharing) If yes this could be part of the problem
I cant see that on the hub itself or in the online Hub manager - this kit is made for BT (in China) and only shows the BT logo - as I've said before I only went over to this option to get the 8meg broadband speed - the hub comes (FREE)with that !!Does your hub have on it that it is a 1800G model
No not at the moment but I have had one PC (the Dell) and an Xbox on ethernet cables but they are now connected wirelesslyDo you have any computer hardwired to the hub?
Yes its tickedGo to start>run type in firewall.cpl click ok

This says that it can take 4 direct cables Router
The first attempt was by Ethernet cards and cables - I only had a broadband modem (2meg) at that time. See below for the first topic details.1) you said on page 1 of this that you tried setting up the network before - was that as a wireless network ? if not did you try a hub/switch
They can be connected by Ethernet cables but I have a fear that I would lose the Internet connection if I do - I'm sorry to say that I dont really have that much faith in BT equipment !! and their help isn't any help at all !!!2) if your router does have ethernet ports is it possible to connect both computers to the router or are they to far apart?
I am thinking if this is possible then we hook them up and see if we can file share first then we try the wireless.
3) If not can the dell connect to the router via the ethernet cable.
The topic details are First G2G topic - home network4) Can you point me to the first attempt so I can see what was done
[bleep] was not frozen when i was there lastIf you want to give up let me know.
Sorry I dont understand thatQUOTE

Thanks a lot - this is getting to me - not a good day here I'm battling with my credit card company to get a large important payment to go through on the WWW - it keeps getting blocked as its an 'unusual' amountI will give up when H.E.L.L freezes over
They are external 'Dongles' on both PCs See here- voyager 1055is the wirless card a usb plug in or is it a card you plugged in to the motherboard

Nothing is screwed - I had to go out so I haven't yet done anythingHi Chris
Hope I did not screw anything by having you plug in the cable. Not sure if you just went off line or having trouble.
I am sorry but must go I hve to get up for work in 6 hours

Sorry I didn't realise that you wanted me to try the cable now, I dont make any changes unless I'm specifically told to - safer that way and only one of us is in chargeok with out changing any settings what if you power down remove the dongle plug in a cable to 1 computer from the Ethernet then start up again. See if you can access the internet
I think I do but will check - it's on lots of G2G posts if I can't find it I'll ask youIf you are worried you can make a restore point. Do you know how to make a restore
This is what I've done is this correct :-QUOTE
