I have:
Cable Modem -> Wireless Router -> 2 outputs
1) wired to Gigabit Switch -> 3 wired computers (each with specific IPs)
2) Wireless to 3 Laptops
I can VNC into each computer perfectly
Each are on HTPC workgroup
On my laptop (Vista) I CAN NOT access my main HTPC (XP Pro) (haven't tested others) using Network (my network places).
I CAN NOT ping COMPUTERNAME but I CAN ping IP
Once I do ping -a IP the computer shows up in My Network Places but after some time it becomes inaccessible until I re-ping.
I found a small thing about shutting off remote access in the services but that hasn't helped.
Any Thoughts?? This is bugging me
[EDIT] I must add that this is a new switch Linksys SD2008 Rev3 to replace a broken one, before this I THINK everything was working fine, but I'm doing new stuff now, so I can't be 100%[/EDIT]
