Please can someone clarify the meaning of this:
"Computers on your local network can access your computer at: Macintosh-3.local"
I am having a problem with connectivity, can see another network with an 8 number identifier that seems to interrupt my BT connection and wonder if there is something sharing my network.
The statement above comes up in the Sharing menu and there is also a dialog box that states "Use this name to reach this computer from machines on your local subnet. Local hostname. Macintosh3 -local"
I'm not aware of having a subnet. What is it please?
