advice please help - info on routesentry

Hi guys

i have setup my router and have got routesentry to work my vista pc sharing a local and int connection, the thing is my neighbour connects to my router as well how could i get route sentry to work on her pc so that she can access both the int and local connection as well what do i need to install on her pc which is running xppro?

my isp allows concurrent connections, my router is in bridge mode and is a premium combo telkom wifi,

if im using my pc and route sentry will my neighbour be able to connect and dial its own pppoe connection while mine is up and running? so that both of us can use local and int connection at the same time,by the way thier is no server my router is acting as one with dhcp.

any help would be appreciated
thanks in advance

Try it. It should work.

should i jsut install route sentry on the other machine and set it up to run the two connections???

yeah... i've tested it with a virtual pc, it should run on a separate pc without hassles

thanks il try just install it and see how i go thanks for the help so i wont need that rrrppoe application?

 

[Random717]

install it the same way you installed it on your own pc, including the rrrppoe app

Without doing that what will happen to the other PC? Will they still have the net but only the one account? Or will their net not work while RS is running on mine until its setup on theirs as well?

You don't need the raspppoe app (or rrrppoe) app with XP if you install the vista version of Route Sentry (v0.05 Vista beta3) on the XP machine.

The Vista version makes things a lot easier as all you do is: make the one dial up connection(same as on your vista machine), remove "use as default gateway" on this connection, install Route Sentry for vista, select the dial up account and the network adapter. And you sorted.


If your neighbours don't use route sentry their pc will only use the connection that the router makes or only use the dial up connection that they have to set up on their pc. Not both at the same time.

Why not let them buy their own ISP account and let them dial up with that. (1gig pre-paid or something) Then you will never get a surprise when the neighbour discovers p2p or youtube etc.
