Hello everyone here's my question.
I have a Netgear 802.11b and 802.11g router. I have my imac connect via cable, i have my cousins imac connected via wireless, and my friends PC connected via wireless.
I have a passfrase set up on the netgear. So when they search available connections they see mine, and then when they click to connect to it, it requires a password. So that's all good.
NOW,
I notice when i connect to my cousin in my LAN via camera from ichat it connects no problem. When i connect to my finacé computer (blackbook) when she's home, she's able to video chat with me but lately all i here is "sssshhhhhhhhhhh" and i'm only able to see her but hear this "sssshhhhh" as sound. anyway that's another topic, maybe related to this.
When i connect to my brothers imac from his house (1 block away) i'm able to video with him and hear him.
NOW! When i connect to my girl and she's not connected by wire, meaning she's wireless, i can't connect to her via video.
Then today my friend connects with me via video on his macbook and i get same error that i can't connect to him. He wondered why and so did I.
Well my girl is connected wirelessly and sends me a accept thing to video and it doesn't work, and i ask if she's connected by wire and she says NO but she just finished connecting video with her sister.
So i think it has something to do with my settings.
I share my internet and put a password because i don't want people stealing my internet connection. But i have the disable SPI firewall thing checked in my netgear options. And i have security options WEP checked. and the Security encription is to what they have to connect.
What is wrong? What is preventing me from connecting with my fiancé and my friend online vido with ichat?
I'm thinking it has to be somewhere in my settings.
-PS OK OK OK
I asked my girlfriend to try to connect to my friend that i wasn't able to connect to and see if they are able to connect. They are! Why am i not able to connect then?
On my Os firewall i have set access to specific services. Please help
