NEED HELP WITH NETWORKING

**stuwazhere** · December 14th, 2003, 04:33 PM

Hey, I have Sympatico DSL HIGH SPEED on this computer hooked through a Microsoft Based Station (MN -500) Upstairs on my other computer (it's the exact same comptuer as this, Win XP) it has a Linksys Wireless Adapter WUSB11 - both are hooked up and installed, and we are trying to establish a connection. We have done it before vice versa with my computer having the base station. But when we set up a connection on this computer I am pretty sure I checked something to do with a firewall, and I think that is why I can't connect because of this
Is there a way I can turn it off?
THANKS FOR READING AND FOR ANY POSTS

My Network Places/view network connections

Right click the connection you are using, (make sure it is enabled).
Go to properties
Clickec Advanced
Uncheck the firewall

Hey, thanks, we're able to connect to the base station and it shows our connection speed and etc, but I still CAN NOT get on the itnernet, so I have no idea
We're gonna ask the person who helped us last time when they get back, you have any ideas?
thanks
