I have just purchases a Vista Business laptop and can connect to the internet
just fine wirelessly. I can't see my wired XP or 2000 Pro machines or printers from the Vista machine. They all have complete share access. I have read these threads and everything seems to match the suggestions except I can't seem to find the LLTP patch mentioned. My wired machines see the wireless laptop but can't connect despite the appropriate shares. I have dissabled Norton Firewall and am relying on Windows. I must admit that I have never had these kind of problems before with prior OS's. I am a MCP and this is getting frustrating. Any insight? |

In the networking centre network discovery enabled?
Sharing files and printers enabled? etc. Ko. "CableApe" schreef in bericht news ![]() I have just purchases a Vista Business laptop and can connect to the internet just fine wirelessly.

Yes. There are a couple of quirky things going on as well. When I reboot
the PC the Windows Firewall turns itself off and Norton Firewall turns itself on. I am working on that now but even when I have only the Windows Firewall on I still can't see the other machines.

Ok just try this, let the Norton firewall on for a check and take a look if
you are able to set in there to let file and sharing trough the firewall. There are more problems reported using Symantec software, maybe a uninstall will clear it out, as has worked for others. Ko.

I did an uninstall of NIS 07 and everything appeared. Go figure. I guess
it's back to XP until Microsoft gets the bugs out. Thanks for the help.

Well, I can't put XP on this machine. It doesn't have drivers available in
XP. I will still need to know what settings with NIS 07 will work with Vista to be able to see other computers and devices. Would you have a know working list of these settings? I would hate to have to purchase additional software since I paid extra for the Norton. Why would they bundle known incompatible software?

I'm sorry, I don't have those settings for you, have abandond their software
long ago due to problems. If you are able to use the Windows Firewall you could use Avast (the Home version is free after registration) for a AV and works for both 32 abd 64 bit. That's the way I use my Vista, only the build in Firewall and Avast. Happy camper that way. Ko. "CableApe" schreef in bericht ... Well, I can't put XP on this machine.

I had the same problem and solved it by completely uninstalling Norton and
rebooting. "CableApe" wrote: I have just purchases a Vista Business laptop and can connect to the internet just fine wirelessly.

I don't know what settings you need, but once you know it's definitely NIS
that's blocking things, then it should be a matter of making Norton open the correct ports. "CableApe" a écrit dans le message de ... Well, I can't put XP on this machine.
