The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Networking Two Computers through Linksys Router

Asked by xp310 in Miscellaneous Networking, Network Switches & Hubs, Network Auditing Software

Tags: router, computers, through, two, linksys

Hello,

For the past two weeks I have been trying to get this working. I have talked to many people, including Networking people that I found through chats & other forums. Unfortunatly, nobody has gotten me even close to setting this up correctly.

I have attempted to do this on my own, but obviously I can't get it right.

What I want is to be able to network my two home computers through a Linksys Router. Both machines are running WinXP Pro. For some reasons, when I go into the Networking Neighborhood folder, my 'other' computer isn't listed. And that's what usually ends the help from whoever was helping me at the time.

Ideally, I would like each computer to have full access to the other. Including all files & folders available. But I have a feeling that won't be possible. I'm willing to just be able to access one folder on my other computer & vice versa. But it seems impossible to get this working correctly.

I did use some type of wizard built into windows to do this for me, but still it wasn't working. A year ago, I had done this myself. Unfortunatly, I can't remember exactly what I did...

But it was along the lines of, making a folder on each computer. Then going into the properties of those folders and setting them to share. Once that that was, I'd go to tools, map the network drive, and type in the IP address of the other computer followed by the name of the shared folder. It had worked that way easily. But for some reason, I can't even get that working.

Please help, you can't even begin to understand how BADLY I want my computers networked.

Thank you,
Jay
