Unable to ping 'clearly visible' machine
Unable to connect to my mobile through vista.
Mobile = XP , done all the usual stuff. Mobile can see Vista machine no probs (browsing and sharing) and Vista machine maps the mobile but can't browse or share. I can see the mobile in Net View but can't ping it (see following) C:\Users\usernet view Server Name Remark -------------------------------------------------------------- \\ADDERLEYHOME Main Business Computer \\ADDERLEYMOBILE1 Dell Inspiron 1300 \\ADDERLEYVISTA1 Main Home Computer The command completed successfully. C:\Users\userping 10.1.1.3 Pinging 10.1.1.3 with 32 bytes of data: Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Ping statistics for 10.1.1.3: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss), The Dell Inspiron is the one I can't browse in Vista - ip 10.1.1.3 Adderleyhome is exactly the same - can 'see' in Net View but can't ping. Help !

Unable to ping 'clearly visible' machine
If you can connect to it to share but cannot ping it, there's probably at
least one firewall blocking pings in your network. I believe XP can do this but it may not be default, Vista does by default, and any third party firewall may or may not block pings by default. -- Richard G. Harper [MVP Shell/User] * NEW!
