Your problem is with the computers your using or the router your
using. It sounds to me a simple cheap 4 port router from Wal Mart solves
all your problems. I have a D-link DI-604 4 port router that cost I
think $30.00. I can, of course do EVERYTHING between 3 computers.
If you don't like windows delete it. You don't need to tell us that
however.
