Networking Troubles

Topazworm · #1 04-20-2005, 03:06 PM

Currently i have 2 comp's networks via a hub. And my cable modem connected to the hub. Both computers can go on the internet but its apain to get them to share files with each other. Ives used the network wizard many times and still no luck. Im no network expert

All ive tried is the network wizard. Im also running zone alarm on both but i disable it on both to try and get them to talk!

Try to disable Zone Alarm to run form start up. Restart.
Are the both PC's from the same NET MASK???
