I'm sure with whatever you are using you can do the ame thing.
Hope that helps

The question I have, is how do I allow two PPPoE Connected clients to connect to each other. I would love to have the advantage of allowing people to send me support requests and me take over the xp desktop!

I had it on for awhile with mikrotik AP. I turned it off and the traffic level decreased 10 fold. It has a real impact on ap load.

I personally think it is VERY bad.
When I first opened up the network, I had interclient comm enabled (allowed). Next thing I know….I am getting complaints ALL over the place about other network users downloading files off of their hard drives.
When you allow the interclient comm., then NETBIOS traffic is seen by all. They can then map each other’s printers, shared folders, etc.
VERY BAD if you are running a business.
VERY GOOD if you are running a for fun personal network.

I let them do it. It hasn't had any adverse affects yet, but most of my customers don't know they can use it. Some of those who are savvy enough use it for games.
Just let them do it. If they go through the Internet and back to do the same thing, you'll still slow down the network, right? So you may as well let them do it from within so that at least it will pass by faster. If they're swapping files, less time will be spent getting the file from computer A to computer B if it's on your network. If it goes throught the Internet, it still has to go from A to B, but a longer route which will add more time to the transfer.

but I'm not sure if I should disable it?. Just wondering how many
others enabled/disabled this feature and what effect it's had?
