NetBios Over TCP/IP

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Is NetBios Over TCP/IP required for accessing computers in the same
'workgroup' if they are all running Windows XP or VISTA?

Secondly, if it possible to see all the computers in the 'workgroup' if they
are 'hung' off of different routers. Instead of using a switch to extend
the number of ports on my router I used another router. I don't believe the
protocol is can traverse the routers?

Thank you
