2 Homegroups on the same LAN?
Is this possible? I am renting a room out to another person and absolutely do not want them to access my files.
If it is possible, please explain how.

I need 2 different homegroups in the house. The internet is already shared, both of us have more than 1 computer each wanting our own homegroup.
nope, no can do currently... not on the same subnet/network atleast. This SHOULD have been implemented by MS imo. Like having different workgroups on the same subnet/network.
This is why i am disappointed in the quick release of 7, and the lack of support that MS paid to Homegroup... they pretty much set it and forgot it imo
I don't know what equiptment you have but if you have dsl and a modem with at least two lan ports then you can put the modem in bridge mode and have one LAN connection go to one router's WAN and another LAN connection go to another router's WAN.
Set both routers to PPPOE and put in your user name and pass on both. Each router will grab a different WAN IP. Put one router with a LAN IP as 192.168.1.1 and the other to 192.168.2.1. You will both have internet and you will be seperate and secure.
