Ok I got a Netgear Router and 2 computers via wired connection and 1 wireless.
Now here is the problem my computer and the laptop (Via Wireless) can see and exchange files and vice vera.
BUT we cannot see the downstairs computer (Via Wired) but that computer can see the laptop and my computer but we for some reason cannot access that computer ?
The computer that cannot be seen on the network (It shows up and grouped computers but when double clicked comes up with \\Johnathon is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permission.
The computer downstairs has guest account turned on and windows firewall is deactivated (No padlocks on network connections) but we cannot access his computer although he can see and access ours.
Downstairs WindowsXP SP2
Laptop WindowsXP SP2
My Computer Windows MCE
Anyone got any ideas ?
I dont think this has as much to do with the router as it is his computer so thought it might be a settings issue on his OS since he is the only one that can see all persons connected to the network but no-one else can see his ?
Also file sharing is enabled on the downstairs computer because them wee little blue hands are there on the drives ???
