Browsing network shares from behind a router.

I'm in a dorm. In my room I have a desktop and an ancient laptop. Since the Resnet only assigns us one IP, I use a router to connect both PC and laptop to the internet. Swapping off the router is not simple because of a buggy as shit activation process the ResNet service uses to bind to a MAC.

Is there a way to browse network shares even though I'm on my private subnet? I'm not in the mood to violate my universities AUP, so no uber-fast IP range share scanner type progs.

Good luck!

Even if you could get the ports forwarded, it is very likely that they'd be filtered by just about every device connecting you to the computer.
