Not so long before there lived a young man in India who had a thing for searching on Internet. He would search the net thoroughly and find answers for his questions, doubts and also for others (He wished all items in his home were listed in his computer and were search able digitally). Time passed by. Now he work in a company in the accounts stream and recently got a broadband connection for his computer. Then began trouble. The BBS would not work if LAN is connected. Every time he wanted to connect to the Internet he needed to disconnect / disable his LAN. It was a pain in the neck and also elsewhere. He decided to resort to his old technique. And he did. He searched the whole wide world but could not hit upon the right link. Whenever he said two connections the search term was taken to mean one to be wireless. Days passed with no answer. Then he knew that the rules of the game have changed and his rusty search engine cannot work here.
PS.1
His undying spirit helped him find an answer within. Not within himself but in the settings screens of his network connections. Stumbled upon the idea to add a port to exceptions list in window firewall and there it works.
PS.2
No need to mention that it is about me.
PS.3
The idea in PS.1 failed even before this post can get to the blog. But today both networks are co-existing as if there had never been compatibility issues.
