Ok, that might work for me. I should be able to install a networked program with that... Thanks!

So were you able to use NetBIOS with that connection? I got mine connected, but was unable to see any network resources. That was the issue I was having.

Hope that works out for you...thanks again for the tip!

No kidding--THANKS for the tip. I can be pretty sure I'll be doing the same thing! Were you able to sell that Netgear ...stuff?

Don't these Netgear things SUCK? I'm so ticked off. I tried everything that "customer service" said to do. I think Gecko's post about sums it up. Buy Netgear routers for all of the clients and set up gateway VPN's. Super easy and cheap too! For the time being, I've settled for using...

It is Safenet--same tray icon, and you can connect to a Sonicwall as an option--must have slipped that by Netgear!! I've heard that Netbios doesn't really mean Netbios from other resources too. Honestly, I'm a little dismayed at the fact that Netgear says they can do it when they really can't...

Thank you--I'm going to keep working at it--I just need a couple of days break from it. Getting too frustrated! Hopefully my next post will be a report on my success!

Ok, so I eliminated the 2nd router entirely, and tried again. It STILL says I'm connected but still won't allow network resources to be viewed. It still drops every packet when I ping any address on the host network. I think my problem goes deeper than configuration here. I'm going to stop...

Well-our experiment wasn't successful, but I got to looking at the client configuration and may have discovered a problem that the software can't solve. My home network (the client) consists of a cable modem, then a router, then another router (wireless). So I'm receiving through 2 NAT...

Ok--I'll give that a try. Regarding the firewall, I actually shut them off on both machines, remote and client. I don't even need it on the home network and the Netgear firewall with all the ports closed seems like pretty solid security (please correct me if I'm wrong) I'll report back soon...

Yes, I am using Netgear's Client software. After a long battle of trying to match policies and sort through Netgear's rather poor intuitive connection between the router setup and the client software, I did get it to connect. Of course Netgear says that once you're connected, you should be...

I also tried pinging the server box from the client with ping \\192.168.0.4 and ping 192.168.0.4 No response from either.

Ok-- so here's what I've done: 1) Enabled NetBIOS over TCP/IP as you've instructed on the host and the client. 2) Closed all the ports on the router except the default VPN 3) Revised my Workgroup setting on the client to match the host. It's still not working. Question about TCP/IP...

Yeah, you had the correct impression. I do want to use the VPN server in the Netgear router. I'll try what you advised me to do and report back. Thanks for your time--it's very much appreciated...

I'm a little confused by your advice. (My fault not yours, I'm not exactly qualified to be doing this...) I have NetBIOS enabled on the router. Since this is a Firewall router, I'm told that I have to forward the port to the server in order to bypass the automatic traffic blocking that is the...

WOW, I wish I had seen this about 2 weeks ago!! I had the same problem. It turned out, however, that I was able to set the modem in bridge mode (by removing the router and connecting the modem to my computer directly), and then reseting the router to be the DHCP server. When you have 2 DHCP...

Yes, I set up port forwarding on the Router to go to the Server. I can ping between addresses, but only the outside address of the host. The subnets are: Host 192.168.0.XX Client 192.168.101.XX I only want remote clients to see the server... I did set up the Win2K server this morning to...

Ok, I dont' feel right asking this question, since it seems like there should be an easy answer, but here goes: I have a remote client connected to my Office LAN with a Netgear FVS318v3. It's an all XP environment...I enabled NETBios, but I CANNOT see the computers on either end, despite...
