And on top of that partly in wireless mode. It won't be/isn't peer to peer, but to connect computers is what routers are meant for after all. Actually, to call the router a "junction" would better describe what it does. Assuming the device supports dhcp (and the NICs had been installed properly on all computers), the basic steps: - let the router dynamicly assign an IP address to each router, then - setup an ftp account (= password) at each computer (in order to do so, you need tcpcfg2 ) - Acquire a registered copy of Netdrive which will enable you to copy/move/edit from each station (computer) at/to each station (computer). Netdrive is the fun part in the game. And I couldn't do without anymore. -- Groeten uit Gent, Kris http://www.taartenbakkerij dot com/bestanden/warpstock-europe-2005-dresden.jpg http://www.taartenbakkerij dot com/bestanden/zum_weberplatz.jpg ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **= Email 2 ==========================** Date: Fri, 02 Sep 2005 21:16:56 +1000 (EST) From: "Chris Graham [WarpSpeed]" Subject: Re: ADSL Router On Fri, 02 Sep 2005 09:59:02 +0200, Kris Steenhaut wrote: > > >Peter Rehfisch schreef: > >>I have a Netcomm 1300 4 port router for my ADSL connection.
