Windows networking doesn't seem to work as it should ... Why?
I've got a couple of computers on two routers, of which one is used only as
a switch. No wireless components are used. However, one system doesn't acknowledge that it has a network by that icon in the quick-launch bar that indicates a LAN conneciton, and sharing doesn't work in both directions. Surely there's a straightforward way to rip-out and replace the networking configurations at both ends, such that it will actually share printers and files over the LAN. I use Windows XP firewall on both ends. I have network-accessible storage that seems to work OK from both ends, and both ends have internet access through the common cable modem. However, the two don't have normal sharing capability, and I believe that's because something's configured incorrectly. Is there any way to verify and remedy this? thanks! |
