Question Author
Part 2, as it exceeded 2000 characters(br>So what I want to know is:
A) Is there a way for me to change the settings on the XP
machines to allow this to work, and if so what should I
change them to, and where are they located?
B) Is there a way I can make the ME machine allow the
packets through, and if so, how and where do I change the
settings, and to what?
or C) Is there any other way round it?
I don't need an 'idiot's guide'. I know my way around
stand alone machines with no worries, but this is the
first time I've had any issues since setting up this, my
first network (which I was pretty proud of, having been
terrified of the idea, hehe)
I do know other people that have the same problem on home
networks, but surely there must be a way round it? If
not, then am I going to have to dump the ME machine, make
the XP Home machine the gateway and just use that one for
WinMX? Not something I'd be happy about, but if it comes
to it, I'd be willing to.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. I've been
trying to find out for the last six months, and this is
my final hope.
