I've just moved from Sky to Virgin because of the Tivo service (I've Tivo for 5 years and is brilliant :) )
However the broadband side of things is giving me a headache.
I have 3 pc's on a homenetwork previosuly connected to SKY who used fixed IP addresses.
Since installing Virgin all 3 pc's will access the internet (as I have changed the TCP/IP properties to automatically allocate IP address) but the pc's will no longer see each other.
2 of my pc's are connected by a Draytek vigor router 2800 in my office and I had to disable the settings to enable internet connectivity so it is bascially acting like a hub which is fine.
The problem though is my PC's can no longer see each other. Virgin tech support gave me the good news that they can fix the problem but want £60 or £10pm for a year.
I'm assuming I have to access the superhub and make some changes but unsure of how to do this.
Can anyone help or have a solution?
