You could try setting setting up two different workgroups using the same
range of IP addresses. One for your neighbour & one for yourself. Windoze
seems to like MSHOME, so you could use this for your neighbour's workgroup.
Obviously, you need a different name for your group. This should work on PCs,
but I'm not sure how this would work on the ROS side.
You can (must?) set SAMBA up to a specific workgroup, which would only allow
that group of PCs to see ROS shares, but I suspect that ROS would be able to
see both workgroups.
