XP Home Networking
I have two systems running on XP Home wired through a
router and everything works except I can't connect to computer2 from computer1. Computer1 acts as the DHCP server and internet DSL gateway and is fully accessible from computer2 (file & printer sharing enabled on both sytems). If I go to network neighborhood from computer1 I see computer2 but if I click on it I get a "path not found" error and can't access the hard drive on computer2. I have gone through the whole network troubleshooter and turned up nothing wrong. Any suggestions?? |

From each computer: 1) Ping the other by name. 2) Ping the other by ip address. 3) Ping itself by name. 4) Ping itself by ip address. 5) Ping 127.0.0.1. 6) Ping 192.168.2.1 (router). Report success / failure of each of 12 pings. Please provide ipconfig information for each computer. Start - Run - "ipconfig /all c:\ipconfig.txt" - Open c:\ipconfig.txt in Notepad, copy and paste into your next post.

I have gone through the whole network troubleshooter and turned up nothing wrong. Any suggestions?? Rob, Any software firewalls (ICF or third party) on either computer? Ever? From each computer: 1) Ping the other by name. 2) Ping the other by ip address. 3) Ping itself by name. 4) Ping itself by ip address. 5) Ping 127.0.0.1. 6) Ping 192.168.2.1 (router). Report success / failure of each of 12 pings. Please provide ipconfig information for each computer. Start - Run - "ipconfig /all c:\ipconfig.txt" - Open c:\ipconfig.txt in Notepad, copy and paste into your next post. Cheers, Chuck Paranoia comes from experience - and is not necessarily a bad thing. . Thanks for the help Chuck. Here are the results: System #1 - All pings except for the router (timed out) were good. It is a D-Link DSS8+ 8 port switch. System #2 - All pings gave the following error message (except for localhost 127.0.0.1): "PING: transmit failed, error code 65."
