telegramsam,
Still doesn't work. I add exception for File and Printer Sharing and checked all boxes for ICMP, allowing all ICMP packet. Still I can not ping from new PC to old PC, nor access old PC's share folder. Is there anything else causing "one way" connection? i.e. old PC can ping new PC, but not vice versa?
