HI ALL

getting kids a comp for xmas for upstairs using a router already got my 360 connected


is there anyway that i can get the kids to just use the broadband connection and not have their comp networked to mine


i mean can i disable it on my comp to stop theirs accessing mine

yeah i need to share files to stream to xbox360

i use windows firewall is their a setting in there under exceptions that will block their comp



i dont want any crap they accuminate on their pc trying to find its way to mine

im running media player 11

this seems to totally control my file sharing settings now with my 360 and reading through it it says

when you connect another computer with a network cable then a pop up will appear asking you if you want to share files from this comp


as a test i selected disable for xbox360 and couldnt stream anything form it


enabled it and all is ok


im wondering if the same will apply

also before i installed media player 11 and was using 10

in my networks i had my network then another under internet gateway this was the 360 which i had to allow

that has now dissapeared and in wmp11 the settings and that are now there
