I have a home network with four computers. 2 are desktops, both running Vista, both connected by Ethernet cable to a router. The third is a laptop running Vista, and the fourth is a desktop running Media Center XP -- both connected wirelessly to the network. The two wireless computers and one of the Vista Desktops can all connect and access each other. The fourth desktop can only access the other desktop connected by ethernet cable and the Internet -- not the two wireless computers. When I try mapping on the uncooperative desktop, it says Windows cannot create a network map. It is listed as private, not public, and the LLTD boxes are checked. When I look at the router software, all of the computers show up as attached devices. Firewall is not set to block any of the computers. Not sure what else to do. Any suggestions? -- Sandy |
