Ok, First thing: I've never set up a network before, which is why i'm having problems
I have 2 computers, My own computer and a family one. I have set up a network through a router. The internet works fine. I can get the internet on both computers.
Problem #1- File/Print sharing wont work across the network. The computers just cant see each other on the network. They're both on the same workgroup... I've been through network setup and the computers can access each other... kinda..
For example If I run bulletproof FTP server on the family computer I can connect to ftp://192.168.1.101 and it works, so it's not completly b0rked
Problem #2- Gaming... In some games it works fine. (Vietcong, Jedi Knight) the games show up on the list.
On others, I can play... But the games wont show up on the game list. (Unreal Tournament, Jedi Academy) I have to type "connect 192.168.1.100" to connect, in UT i need to go to open location and put the IP in.
I'm thinking this problem is similar to the first one, the computers just cant see each other.
Any suggestions on how I can fix this? Thanks.
