| 447934 | 2006-04-20 10:36:00 | Ahh yes, found it. There are two setting on my ADSL Router Modem Here. DHCP Server DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Control Protocol. The DHCP server gives out IP addresses when a device is booting up and request an IP address to be logged on to the network. That device must be set as a DHCP client to "Obtain the IP address automatically". By default, the DHCP Server is enabled. The DHCP address pool contains the range of the IP address that will automatically be assigned to the clients on the network. Starting IP address - The starting IP address for the DHCP server's IP assignment. Ending IP address - The ending IP address for the DHCP server's IP assignment. Lease Time - The length of time for the IP lease. DHCP client computers will have their information displayed in the Client Table. The Client Table will show the Host Name, IP Address, MAC Address, and Expired Time of the DHCP lease for each client computer. DHCP Relay A DHCP relay is a computer that forwards DHCP data between computers that request IP addresses and the DHCP server that assigns the addresses. Each of the device's interfaces can be configured as a DHCP relay.if it is enable, the DHCP requests from local PCs will forward to the DHCP server runs on WAN side. To have this function working properly,please run on router mode only,disable the DHCP server on the LAN port,and make sure the routing table has the correct routing entry. DHCP Relay IP - The DHCP server runs on WAN side. Do I need to use DHCP Relay IP? And what should I put for DHCP Relay IP Address? |

| 447935 | 2006-04-21 05:27:00 | You guys can't really help me right? I forgot how I managed to share file with the other computer and get access through. I forgot the method I knew that method will work but forgot. My WinXP and ADSL Router Modem have been replaced causing this problem. |

| 447936 | 2006-04-21 05:45:00 | read this (www.experts-exchange.com) XP Pro has security settings (enabled by default) that 1) Stop access over the network as a guest 2) Deny access over the network to user accounts using blank passwords. Also whether you are using Simple File Sharing makes a difference. It is far better just to use the "Map Network Drive" option anyway, than browsing the MS Network Neighbourhood. |

Or create a shortcut to the shared folder, under sendto Even easier. Saves u going to My network places, or making a mapped drive. If u just want to copy files. |

| 447938 | 2006-04-21 06:03:00 | Just to further confuse the issue :) With the computer that you cannot access, go to Control Panel-Administrative Tools-Local Security Policy-Local Policies-Security Options, and look at the Network access settings. Try making them the same as the first 5 in this screen shot: www.imagef1.net.nz |

| 447939 | 2006-04-21 09:41:00 | How do I set the forth one to Not Defined? I can only choose two options which is enable or disable. How am I going to do that? | MTLance (6768) | ||
| 447940 | 2006-04-21 10:12:00 | I wasn't clear enough, NOT the first five entries on the page, but the first five entries beginning Network access. Actually you can try 4 of those 5, forget the line about .NET passports. Now one or more of those lines may be preventing access. I had some problems and altered the settings to what is shown. Security risks are increased, but in my case access became available. I admit I was working in the dark a bit. |
