Can't see other PC's
Hi all,
We have a small LAN with a few XP Pro PC's. They all can see each other and sharing files is a piece of cake. Now we have bought a new laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium. We also connected an AP to the LAN. Setting up an internet connection from the W7 laptop was easy. But somehow the laptop can't see the other PC's and vice versa. Pinging works fine. I managed on the laptop to give the network group the proper name. I also managed to install LLTD on one of the XP machines. Now this machine shows up in the laptops network overview but I can't do anything with that. In My computer/network the LAN does not show up and neither do the other PC's. The laptop is invisable from the other PC's as well. I never expected this new Microsoft product would be so crap. How can I arrange that the laptop can see the other PC's and vice versa? All network setting seem right. I removed the laptop from the home group as this only works with other W7 machines. Thanks in advance for your help. With kind regards, Fokke Nauta |
