Dir 615 xp file sharing networking help

[billey]

In regards to my home networking using dlink 615 router using 3 pcs on the
network all can connect to the internet ok. Pc1 where the router is connected
can view/ share Pc 2 and Pc 3 files ok. But pc 2 or 3 can not access pc 1
files. Have set up file sharing on pc 1. I get an error message on pc2 and 3
when try to access files on pc 1. error messages reads:
files is not assessable you might not have permission to use this network
resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have
access permission.
Any ideas?

It could be the firewall issue. If you are using Norton AV, you can add the
computer names or IP addresses of pc2 & 3 to pc1, move the rule up to the
top. If not, try to look into the firewall in pc1 to see if you need to
treat something.

Good luck

I too have a DIR-615. You have configuration problems on the PC as
the router has no settings to block filesharing.

1) Set up PCs onto the same workgroup

2) Enable Simple File sharing

3) Configure "File/Printer Sharing"

4) Let "File/Printer Sharing" access thorough each PC's firewall
software

5) Set your anti-virus software Internet Worm blocking feature to
unblock "NetBIOS name resolution."

--- Important: This will only let you see the PCs by IP address (\
\192.168.0.1) instead of \\PC2.

6) Locate, download and run anti-malware software and remove the
spyware infestations.
