Connecting 2 PCs Via the D-Link Hub

Hi Ajog,

Those Ips look good. Make sure the Subnet on both is 255.255.255.0. Since they are both getting to the internet, I assume the Gateway IP is correct.

On the 192.168.1.3, got to Start>Run and type in CMD. A black window will open, and type in PING 192.168.1.65. You should get four responses. If you don't, you probley have a firewall issue.

Do that same on the 192.168.1.65 machine, back to the 192.168.1.3 machine.

On the XP machine, follow these instruction, just skip down to Step 9.

Vista gets a little tricker, but not bad. To setup the network on the Vista machine, go here, ad click on the Network icon.
Great link to save to your desktop!

Using the network wizards should setup your firewalls to allow File and Printer Sharing.

Good luck
