[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 1331228, member: 38928"] I'm in the UK. At work myself at the moment but it definately sounds like an IP issue. To avoid a clash you can go one of two ways: - have static IPs on both machines (not ideal, especially if you have other devices on the network) - have dynamically assigned IPs using DHCP on the router. It may be that you need to have a static IP on one device but with your Netgear router you can still achieve that. Once you're home post back with the version of Windows you're using and the model of Netgear router and I'll give you some specific instrcutions if you would find them useful. [/QUOTE]
