When I got home at the end of the semester I found my network a complete mess. Currently the cable modem is connected to my father's PC, which has two NICs, the other one is connected to a hub. ICS is turned on, and it works for the most part, unless he connects to work through his VPN. Connected to the hub now is my computer, a mac, and a cable running to a Linksys wireless/wired router that is connected to my mom's PC through ethernet and also to her laptop over 802.11g. The current situation is garbage, most of the computers can't see each other because they are behind different firewalls, I get booted offline everytime he connects to VPN and VPN and bittorrent don't work if I just connect everyone to the router.
I want to have all the PC's linked through the router and the router hooked to the cable modem, so that files can be shared between all of the computers, but I'd also like bittorrent to work on my computer and VPN to work on his. Anyone have any suggestions for how to work this out?
