Can anybody give me any pointers on a long, long term problem. I
have
a D-Link router/modem with 4 ports at the back (ethernet of course).
I have two PC's currently hooked up to this router (built in switch
too) as well as an X-Box 360 Live downstairs (not mine, my son's).
All have superb web access. but, no matter what I try or have tired
in the past, I cannot get the PC's to talk to each other. I have
tried Linux to Linux PC's and Windows to Windows PC's. I know it is a
setting in the router but I'm buggered if I know what. I did try
replacing the router with a switch just to see if the LAN worked then
(manually assigned IP addresses in that case). It worked a treat
then. But why will it not work with the router?
Any tips will be gratefully received :-)
You did mention earlier that it was going to be one of those days!
I too have a DLink router G604 WiFi and wired. I did set up a lan
using it a while back but i think it was with the laptops. I shall
search my memory cell (only one)
and my saved links. I'll get back if I find anything.
