HI
I've got a DLINK network hub that i want to network running ethernet cable
too a Laptop and a PC . Ones a desktop with Windows Xp Pro and the other is
a Acer Travelmate with Windows Home edition. I've setup network wizard in
the Workgroup as MSHOME_1 with the Network wizard selecting file sharing
(Documents folder). I cant't see any of my computers icons when i use the
windows explore to expand my workgroup.How can i see the connetion between
both computers without gettin a "access denied" in explorer.
Things I've tryed.
1. Ping both PC and Laptop but only the PC comes with data on request.(to
the local IP address) The Laptop come up with request time out (to the local
IP address).
2. Connected another Laptop to the Hub with the same result as having
"request time out".
Can anyone segguet anthing i can do to see them. or is it the best left for
a expert.

Hi - a couple of times when I have failed to get a home network running |
despite trying all helpful advice I have had to resort to
http://www.networkmagic.com/ and that has always done the trick.
Good luck

Assuming your network tcp/ip is setup correctly on each computer I would
check to make sure that the Windows Firewall or any software firewall
installed on the computer you can not access is disabled or file and print
sharing exception is enabled. Try to ping the computer by it's IP instead of
name if you have not tried that yet. Use the command ipconfig /all to see
the IP configuration of each computer and they need to be on the same
network with the same subnet mask. For a typical class C network used with
home routers that would most likely be 192.168.1.x or 192.168.0.x. The
192.168.1 or 192.168.0 part for example would be the same on both computers
with the x being different as the x is the "host" address on the network.
192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 are typically used for the router/gateway IP
address.

HI
I have'nt tryed anything yet ut i suspect its the DLINK Hub because when i
try to ping my Laptop using the setup program (via iexplorer) it comes up
with a Failed. I know that windows network should be build-in to all
operating systems and i dont think i have to install anyone overheads.
