Is there any way at all to make it to where my router allows two PC's to connect to the internet but at the same time makes it to where it's impossible for either of these pc's to connect to one another?
the reason i ask is that the other PC is used by a person that really doesn't know what they're doing online, and because of this (and macafee) had multiple viruses on their PC. i do need for both of us to connect to the net at the same time, but i absolutely want every possibility of that computer connecting to mine in any way whatsoever to be eliminated/gone/destroyed/nonexistant... etc....
there is no way for that pc to have its hard drive wiped and reloaded as there is no xp disk for it and the manufacturer is kaput (they got the thing off a TV shopping show). it has been cleaned as well as it can be, and it may very well be virus free at this point, but i don't trust it. (the viruses on it were the type used to steal info).
the router is a d-link gamers lounge dgl-4100
and i have read the instructions, all 62 pages of them. maybe i skipped over something or didn't realize what something really allowed... but anyway, please display any wisdom you have on this issue.
and if there's not a way to do this with a router, is there a way to do this with any other device?
