Hey everyone, me and my mate have got a unsecured router across the road which is his, and i have my PC that is in range that connects to it, we are just wondering how we can setup file sharing on his unsecured network?


thanks

What operating system are ya'll using?

ey, we are using xp,

Hello firstly open windows firewall and check file and printer sharing in exceptions tab.

If you scroll down on the above link it has more links attached on how to setup a network.

To set permissions for the folders shared this is a decent read.
