Browsing Hosts
 

Ok, so i have 2 computers hooked up to the internet, connected by one modem. When I try to browse the other computer from this computer, it says "Could not browse host, (and then the IP address)". It also says the same thing when I try to browse this computer from the other computer. How do i get it to work?
:confused:
Thanks in advanced.:xeri_ok1ani:

Follow this & make a different port number for each computer.

If this update is installed on your computer & UPnP is in use by Limewire,
Try switching to Manual Port forward using port numbers between 45000 To 65000
Both Manual Port forward No, & listening port should be set at the same number
In LimeWire, GO to Tools/Options/Advanced/Firewall Config & use Manual Port forward.

If you are using a router to connect, that will also need configuring.
