Hi,
I help fix friends computers when they get a virus etc. and want to be able to connect their computers to my home network while at the same time ring fencing their computer so that they can only access the internet (for updates and virus definitions).
I want to be able to prevent their machine from seeing and interacting with my computer and other "trusted" machines and devices on my network and I want all of my machines (Windows 8.1 and Windows 7) from having their media sharing services and shared folders etc. popping up in my machines.
I understand that I can setup VLAN's for this purpose but sadly my router Netgear DG834GT does not have VLANS.
Can anyone give me a pointer as to the best way to achieve this so I don't have to turn my computer off when I connect theirs. I would like it to be fairly seamless and not have to change the settings on my computers every time if possible.
Cheers
