Hi!

I have a question about wirless filesharing. I have a computer connected
through a LAN-wire to a D-Link 624+ Wireless router. The router is connected
to my ADSL-modem and then into the telephone output for internet connection.

Now, we also have an Apple PowerBook which I am able to connect to both the
internet and my Windows computer. This works all fine.

Now, there is a neighbour of mine whom I want to share some files with. The
files are on my stationary Windows computer. I do not, however, want this
neighbour to use my internet connection. That is: I want to enable
fileharing through a wireless network, but I want to block internet traffic
to my neighbour's computer.

Is this possible? If so, how do I go around setting things up? Any help
appreciated.

I have the D-Link DI-624 (Not +). You should be able to use an IP
filter to deny any PC on your network Internet access while giving that
PC access to other network functions.

Good luck, jimbo
