Hi guys!
After a much succesful experience on this forum, I am very enthusiastic about finding answers to this issue.
Here it goes:
A little background info:
-------------------------
3 computers on network: Win2K (main computer), two WinXP Home Edition computers (one is a desktop, other one a laptop).
Linksys Wireless Router. ISP: Comcast.
All computers have "Enable Netbios over TCP/IP" enabled.
Problem: We can access some computers but we can't others.
Before we begin with more detailed information, we would like to know if it's possible to SAFELY set up our network. We have heard that File and Printer sharing is very dangerous.
In addition, we would like to know if we can use ZoneAlarm with our network. We have noticed that when ZA is on, we can't ping each other at all.
Help MUCH appreciated,
Jess
