I have a hp laptop with windows vista home and a desktop with windows vista home. My problem is sometimes I can see and access the network and other times I can't see it. If I reboot sometimes the network is accessible sometimes it isn't. This is terribly frustrating since my desktop also is connected to my printer. I've been reading alot of posts about this and can't find a solution. HELP. -- tilleyb ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tilleyb's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/tilleyb.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-v...rk/1028695.htm http://forums.techarena.in |

What kind of internet do you use, wireless? If you have two computers experiencing this problem it may be your internet provider. When you do get a connection (if you use wireless) how stong is the signal? -- marrypoppins |

I feel your pain I really do. I'm having the same issues. And for the record everybody it has nothing to do with Network Sharing being turned off. I have it turned on on both my computers. So explain to me why my desktop sees everything all the time and I can connect to my laptop with it and then my laptop can sometimes see but not connect to my desktop. It's really frustrating. I keep getting an error about my desktop not being accessible and to check my spelling. I'm about to strangle Bill Gates on this one. Never have I been more frustrated in my life. Both my computers have Vista as well. -- tickelstheivorys ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tickelstheivorys's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/tickelstheivorys.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-v...rk/1028695.htm http://forums.techarena.in |
