Hi

Thanks to have sent a response. When I go into the setting for the farewall
there are 3 tabs: -Services -Security logging and ICMP.
I have no idea what I should touch or not. Do you have any suggestion?

Thanks

Xp firewall or something like symantec and zone alarm.

XP firewall
You must configure the firewall to accept file and print sharing. I think
the ports are 137,138,and 139. Advanced tab when you right click on the
lan\wireless connection. Then permit all those ports.

Zone Alarm or Symantec you either enter the gateway that will be allowed or
enter the individual ip address for the computer(s) that will be allowed to
network

I had to enable the XP firewall.

I don't see any of this ports in the Advanced tab. Could you give me more
info.
Thanks.
