WRT54G how I can setup 3 computers to see each other

Hi I have 2 pc wired to wrt54g and one laptop set as wireless.
I have no problem to get to internet.
But how I can setup them to see each other.
Do I need a hub or it can be done  just with router.
Please let me know how this can be done.
I am not an expert so please be with me.
Thanks Jozef

You should lower down the security settings on the Zone Alarm.
Make sure the File and Printer Sharing which is one of the features created by Microsoft should be configured properly on 3 computers.
For more information on how to share files and printers on all of the 3 computers.
Please visit this website.

  • 2 Gateways Sharing One Subnet - How to route traffic in and see each other?

    Hello,
    First, thanks for your feedback in advance.
    I am rolling over from CheckPoint Security Gateways to Fortinet Gateways so I have set up one of each within my datacenter subnet as I wanted to keep the same subnet 192.168.10.0/24 and just roll over from CheckPoint to Fortinet. 
    My current production datacenter gateway (checkpoint) resides on 192.168.10.1/24 with it's own External IP. 100+ ip-sec vpn tunnels communicate through this gateway and happily talk to several servers on the datacenter side (ex. 192.168.10.20, 192.168.10.22,
    etc)
    Since I am preparing to roll over from CheckPoint to Fortinet, I've placed the new gateway in the same datacenter at 192.168.10.2/24, with its own external IP. I've also dropped in a test server at 192.168.10.121 with the gateway pointing to the new Checkpoint.
    It happily gets out to the internet via the new gateway, 192.168.10.2.
    I can get out to the world via each gateway when I am behind my datacenter and I configure the gateways on each server.  And, they can all see each other and communicate within the 192.168.10.X network.
    However, I cannot go from the a Checkpoint tunnel network (ex: 192.168.50.X) go through the CheckPoint datacenter gateway, 192.168.10.1 (via its tunnel) and hit my Fortinet Test server at 192.168.10.121 (fortinet test server gateway set to 192.168.10.2).
     I have the IP statically set in the CheckPoint's DNS server at 192.168.10.20 to 192.168.10.121, but from the 192.168.50.X or any CheckPoint subnet, I can't ping or connect to it.
    Vice-versa, I can go from a fortinet subnet (192.168.195.X) and hit my test server 192.168.10.121.  However, I cannot go from a Fortinet tunnel network 192.168.195.X, go through my new Fortinet datacenter gateway, 192.168.10.2 (via its tunnel), and
    hit any of my CheckPoint-side servers, 192.168.10.20, 192.168.10.22, etc.
    Specifically, all of my scanners at the 100+ sites scan and send via an smtp server within my datacenter (192.168.10.56).  When I deploy the new gateway, the scanner at the office cannot access this IP address to send the email.
    Is there a way to sync two AD/DNS servers within my Datacenter but with different gateways?   In theory, I'd like the request to come in from the outside (whether a checkpoint network or the new fortinet) it will look into its respective AD/DNS and
    point it to the 192.168.10.56 smtp server.
    It does not have to be AD/DNS, but that was the first idea that popped in my head.  I am definitely open to the most efficient and stable method as I have to roll over 100 sites.
    Thank you again!

    Hi Strike First,
     One issue is that we have over 100 remote sites that we are converting from CheckPoint to Fortinet.  And, we do not have the man power to do a single night cutover as these are offices in remote locations.
    I am a little confused on the layout you are proposing:
    Set up fortinet as the backend firewall, point all internal gateways to this backend firewall, then have this firewall NAT through the current CheckPoint firewall?
    Thank you very much for your guidance.

    Can you sync calendars and keep the color coded entries of the original calendar

    When you say she syncs with your calendar, do you mean she shares your calendars through iCloud, she subscribes to your calendar, or something else?
    You can color-code your view of a shared or subscribed calendar the same way you color-code one of your own calendars. In the Calendar app, tap the Calendars button at upper left, tap the ">"-in-a-blue-circle next to the calendar, and select a new color.

  • E4200 - PCs don't see each other and printer on USB port not working

    I been around tech all my life. Acquired by MS when they had only 2000 employees. I don't get excited about tech. Its a tool to help you do something better, excluding games. I had the linksys wrt54... with booster antennas. Worked great, but could not reach one room, the furthest away. Even though I retired 10 years ago I do some private work for fun. I was required to change from 16bit WEP to WPA. My WRT54 just missed the cut off so I went and bought the best home product they had;
    *I have 8 computers and connecting them was time consuming *The computers with same settings don't all see each other. The printer port USB off the hub is a great idea if it worked. They have an upgrade to fix this but ever time I try to install the firmware it fails.
    This product has...

    Short range
    Reliable connection

    In reference to the issue that you are facing I would like to recommend you few things.
    For computers to see each other on the network and to share information they have to be in the same work group, file sharing should be enabled on all the computers and they have to be in the same network. If you are still facing issues, try to disable the firewall on the computers.
    As far as your printer is concerned, I would like to know whether you are trying to install the printer with the help of cisco connect, if yes, then please try to upgrade the latest version of cisco connect and then follow the link below.

  • Computers on network can't see each other and can't communicate

    I have a Linksys router, WRT54G, which calls itself wireless but has only wired connections.   I have my computer and my phone (for Vonage service) plugged into it.    My router is then connected to the household router by a CAT 5 cable.   The household router is also a Linksys; wireless and with plugs for a half dozen computers.   
    I get teh Internet fine with no problem, but we want to share my printer on the household network.   My housemate cannot see me on the household network and can't see my router either, and can't communicate with my computer with the \\Name command.   I can't see the household network and can't communicate with my housemate's computer with the \\Name command.   
    I am running Windows Firewall.   I am sure that so is my housemate.
    Is there something special we have to do to set up our routers for the household network to work properly?
    It looks like I'm supposed to configure my router to communicate with another router instead of connect directly to the Internet, but when I tried htat and enabled interactive adjusting or whatever I suddenly couldn't access the Intenet and my phone couldn't get a dial tone, until I changed it back.
    Tehre isn't any explanation of how to do it anywhere.   There aer technical descriptions of what each thing does but I don't see where it says how to set it up or how to troubleshoot.
    I don't know if we were supposed to set up networks and manually add each other's computers.  Apparently my housemate did not have to do that with his wife's computer or his notebook.    They just show up in the network.
    Yours,
    Dora

    Thanks for your help.   Unfortunately between when I last looked at your name and when I managed to reply I forgot your name.  
    1.  For the option that the parts of the network can see each other, you plug the cable into the OUTGOING port of the SECONDARY router?    That doesn't make a whole lot of sense; how cuold that possibly work?  The way I understand it, the signal can come in only through the incoming plug, which you call the "internet" plug, if I'm understanding you.
    2.  If you choose the setup that makes any sense - the cable is plugged into the incoming plug - the "internet" plug - on the secondary router, and the ethernet connection on the primary router, can all the computers see each other and their resources, ie, printers they want to share?
    3.  If not, why on earth?
    4.  for the second option, it looks like some steps are missing.   Why don't you need to disable DHCP and set the router to be a secondary router?
     PM me for my contact details.
    Thanks!

  • Computers can't see each other after installing E3000

    I've found several previous posts regarding my issue, but none of them have led me to a solution to my problem. Here is my problem. I have a small home network that I was able to share file and printers on, now I puchased and install a Cisco E3000 and my computers can no longer see each other. My current configurations is as such: I use DSL and have a 2 wire DSL modem with wireless capabilities. This particular modem has a port for the phone line and a port for local ethernet. I've taken the local ethernet and plugged in the internet port of the E3000. All computers can reach the internet but they cannot see each other. I've verified that file and print sharing is enabled on all computers. In fact if I remove the E3000 from the configuration and place them back onto the 2wire wireless connection they see each other. So I'm pretty certain that the firewall software on each PC will allow file and printer sharing. So that leads me to believe that my problem is in the E3000. It is perhaps blocking the network discovery protocol or something. Does anyone have any ideas how I can resolve this problem? Any help is appreciated.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks Showguy82 that seems to have worked by allowing my computers on the network to appear under network tap in windows explorer.  However I'm still not able to access the computers. Something is being blocked by the E3000 because I completely disabled the fire wall on my PCs and still couldn't access them. Do you perhaps know what should be changed in the E3000 to allow access to the computers. Thanks for your help.

  • Can get onto Internet but Computers don't see each other

    I've got my Linksys connected via ethernet to a desktop - using DSL. Security enabled.  Had my network set up fine - a wireless laptop sees the intenet connection and the computers saw each other fine (shared disks, etc.)... Today, my DSL went down for a bit - I jumped onto my neighbor's open wireless. My DSL came back up. THe desktop and laptop both see the internet. But they don't see each other any more. I've run those stupid wizards ten times. I've tried creating a new workgroup. They can ping each other. I don't get it.  HELP!

    When changing settings for file/printer sharing on Windows it is always necessary to be patient. The whole workgroup browsing concept of windows requires some time to be up to date. I suggest you run the sharing wizard ones and follow the instructions there exactly.
    Also try to ping the other computers to see if anything goes through.
    As you have "jumped" to your neighbor's network for a moment also make sure you connect to the correct network. Better remove the neighbor's network from your list of preferred networks. Else you end up there accidentally.
    Therefore, you should better setup the sharing while all computers are wired to the router.
    Another possible cause could be the firewall on the computer. Make sure to turn it off to see if it is the problem. Most software firewalls (except the windows firewall) react very sensitive when you just 'jump' to another network and tend to block all traffic by default.Message Edited by gv on 02-09-200701:58 PM

    I don't want other computers connect with my computer, I don't want sharing my macbook pro, so how I can protect my computer and avoid other people connect with my computers

    As long as you do not enable Sharing of any kind (System Preferences > Sharing) no other computer can connect with yours. Also make sure you have your wireless network protected with a WPA2 password.
    That's all I can suggest without knowing what OS version you are running (you are not running iOS as that is for iDevices).

  • TS3999 I am trying to merge my calendar with my wife's with I cloud so that we both can see each others.  how do I do this

    my wife and I have iPhones  and separate accounts with icloud.  Is there a way that we can merge them together through icloud to allow us to see each other's calender? 

    It is very difficult to do this if you want it to look a bit convincing, but if you don't want something very realistic but just to do it for fun it may be doable.
    What you  want is to put one clip atop the other and use a mask.
    If you use a still image of your baby and your moving lips do not move a lot within the frame, this looks possible and not too difficult.
    Apply the "Vignette Mask" to your clip and adjust its size, position an fallof parameters so that the vignette captures just your mouth. And use the Transform tool to resize and position over your baby's mouth.
    You may end up with something a little better than this quick and dirty example I just made :-)

  • IMac and Macbook can't see each other via Airp

    Except sometimes.
    Using Leopard on both new machines, I can share Internet connections and printers fine. The problem is in trying to mount volumes or share files.
    I create a network on the iMac, connect to it on the Macbook, and use the appropriate password on both machines. I've set file sharing preferences perfectly and confirmed that at the store.
    Sometimes, from the Go menu I can find one machine from the other. Sometimes I can't. When I find them, file sharing and accessing work fine--although for some reason, the volumes do not mount on my desktop! I have to use the Go Network menu item.
    But other times they just don't see each other. I only get this to work by REPEATEDLY logging out of networks, turning Airport on and off, creating new network names, and so forth.
    The worst results come from creating a familiar network with a name and password I've used before. The best results come from creating a brand new network, new name and pswd. And creating the using 128-bit WEP is the worst, but I think that sometimes that works, too.
    My question is, am I doing something wrong, or is this another Leopard/Airport bug?
    Also, if I can access the other computer in Go Network, how come the volume doesn't mount on my desktop??
    Thanks.

    Don't know if this will help - but if you're using an Extreme base station go to the Airport Utility and look at the list of DHCP Clients. I had the same problem only I had an iMac and a Macbook running OS 10.4.11. Turns out that my printer and my iMac were sharing the same IP address. When I assigned a permanent address to the printer (out of the normal distribution range used for the other computers) the problems all went away. So, for instance, if the router was assigning IP addresses ending in 10.0.1.199, 198, 197, etc., and the primary computer ended witih 200, I named the printer 10.0.1.201
    Hope that helps.

  • Computers don't see each other on home network.

    Recently set-up a wireless network. Using a linksys wrt54gs. A DSL modem is tied into this and desktop is hard wired into router. I also have two other laptops using the router wirelessly. The problem: All computers see the router and connect to the internet, but I can't seem to get them to see each other for file sharing and printer sharing from desktop. My wireless network has a name,  and the workgroup for each computer a different name from the wireless network, but all the same.
    Desktop is XP, (1) laptop is NT, and the other is Vista.
    I not a PC guru and probably a liitle over my head so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I went home that night and done the same with AVG antivirus. Can't believe it was as simple as that.
    configure your antivirus software like AVG or Norton to allow file and printer sharing as well as allowing your windows firewall to do the same.  
    Mine was in AVG firewall > settings (or Configure) > system > file and printer sharing......................just click on the dropdown box to allow.
    As soon as I done this I went to my network places and the network files were visable.
    other settings in there also solved my remote desktop problems.
    Why couldn't I have thought of this 6 months ago.

    As far as I know the older mac is compatible with AirDrop.
    Thanks

    So by dual-signal, are you referring to 2.5Ghz/5Ghz signal?
    I'm pretty sure my Mac mini 2011 has that but for whatever reason I cannot send via AirDrop to the mini. The mini can see other computers like my 2010 MacBook Pro and send files to it, but not in reverse. The MBP is unable to see or send to the mini unless the mini has engaged it to send a file to MBP. Even then it's temporary and the mini will disappear from the MBP's AirDrop radar upon completing the delivery of its file.
    So I'm a bit perplexed on how the Mac mini has AirDrop, can see other AirDrop computers and send files to them, but cannot be seen on other Macs to reciprocate.

  • My MacBook Air (2011) and my iMac (2008) can no longer see each other.

    Hi
    My WiFi is via a TimeCapsule which seems to work perfectly well with the Apple TV, Hot plugs for the TV and my iPhone/iPad but my two computers (above with Mavericks operating system) can't see each other any more.  It's been about a week now.  I have restarted both of them but to no avail.  My MacBook Air has alternate backups to a local USB connected hard drive and Time Capsule and both are working fine.  I've tried looking in System Preferences to see if something's turned off but can't find what I'm looking for.  I tried changing the settings in Airport Utility but that made things worse so I've reverted to the original "Bridge Off" mode.  What has happened or have I inadvertently turned off?
    Many thanks

    Also, we've tried using entirely different computers to log-in to those same accounts, with the same results - somehow we're blocked from each other.
    I think we're both giving up at this stage. We have additional accounts we can use to see each other. But it would be really nice to get to the bottom of it, because if it happens once it can happen again. Who knows? Maybe there are other people in my buddy list that this is happening with right now, but we don't know it. This person just happens to be someone I chat with a lot, and we noticed we weren't seeing each other.
