RE: Unable to share large files across home wireless network

Thanks for the response. I am not really sure what part of that link you are
suggesting might be applicable. It appears to be just a basic setup guide
for all types of shares across a home network. As I stated in my problem, I
am able to share smaller files from any folder on any computer. The issue is
LARGE files that rarely even start transferring or only partially transfer
before process stops. I don't see anything in the setup guide that deals
with file size. Please let me know if I am missing something.
