I have a linksys router and my roommate just got a airport base station. I've got everyone hooked up to the internet no problems but now the iBook has taken over as the master browser and I want to disable the masterbrowser in the macintosh. If there is no way I would have to force Windows XP to become the master browser and I know it sounds funny...but I do NOT want to do that...last time it just caused major problems...anyways. I want to be able to disable the master browser and I'm a PC person not a mac so if you could give detailed instructions on how to disable the master browser...thanks.
