  1. ROUTER ONLY

    1. Use the appropriate cable to connect the incoming ISP signal to the MODEM. For dial-up you’ll need twisted pair. For cable you’ll need regular Cat5 Ethernet cable.

    2. Use a short regular Ethernet cable to connect the modem to the regular ROUTER. If you have computers that have “wireless” capability, then you do not need to go on to 3. and 4 for wireless.

    Note:  You can also purchase a type of router that has BOTH wired and wireless capability, depending on the need of the kind of computers you have.

    3. For NON-wireless Use a short regular Ethernet cable to connect the router to computer1.

    4. For NON-wireless Use a bit longer additional Ethernet cable to connect the router to

    computer 2.

    In this set up any computer can connect to the internet independently of the other(s).

    5.  Your will need a cable, or wireless for each computer or game.

    =====================================

    Then set up same Network access on both computers.

    FOR COMPUTERS TO BE ABLE TO SHARE FILES across your network:

    To share files you will need to be using the SAME File System like FAT or NTFS all computers for your network.

    To open your computer over the network for specific users to access.

    1. Go to START > Control Panel > Windows Firewall >

    Tab General select ON >

    then on tab EXCEPTIONS >

    a. ALLOW file and print sharing on port 80.

    b. ALLOW Remote Desktop

    c. And ADD* each computer name.

    2. All users should be Networked to join the same WORKGROUP with exact name spelling

    Example: OURGROUPNAME

    Run the Network Set Up Wizard on both computers.

    3. Also in MyNetwork Neighborhood you need to run the wizard, on each computer, and have each computer’s name available. After running the wizard on computer 1, you will need a source to copy the information over

    such as a floppy disk, or a removable flash drive, to transfer the information to the other computers.

    4.. Then the computer(s) will map their drives for the other computers to access.

    each computer will get a different mapped drive letter

    like Z, Y, X etc

    5. Then on each computer, in Network Neighborhood

    create a folder named SHARED DOCS

    and then for every file you want to share

    RIGHT-click/drag/copy the file into the Shared Docs folder

    6. After file sharing is configured on both computers you should be able to access files easily.

    The path I use to view files on my other computer is

    Right Click START > left Click Explore >

    scroll down to MyNetwork Neighborhood > and open the Workgroup folder >

    find the mapped drive to the other computer and double click >

    wait a few seconds and it will display all of the shared files on the other computer.
