Vista laptop wireless can ping other computers but not see them in Network window
Hello all you MVPs,
Let me add another plea for help to the mountain of mail about Vista networking problems. In my case a Vista laptop (Dell Inspiron 1521, AMD Turion 64, Vista Home Basic) can ping other computers in wireless mode (even one running Win98) but not see them in Network window. I waited the requisite 15 minute (more like an hour actually) because I had heard the appearance my be that slow, but still, nada. This is a peer-to-peer system using a D-Link DI-624 purchased at least two years ago, maybe three or four. It is 802.11g and the D-Link version is 2.28 if that helps. But this should not matter since I ran the Internet connectivity Evaluation Tool found on http://www.microsoft.com/windows/usi...d/default.mspx and it reports to me "Congratulations! Your router supports new advanced..." etc. I have also carefully followed all the directions found in in http://technet.microsoft.com/en-au/l.../bb727037.aspx including all the Firewall UDP and TCP port allowances. So what I am asking is this: How can I address this problem? I have read may posts concerning it and followed the directions in each if they seemed relevant. Most of them deal with client-server systems and so do not pertain to me and my peer-to-peer setup. Is there a definitive step by step procedure, however long, to go through and in so doing root out the problem, whatever it may be? Thank You, -plh -- Where are we going and why am I in this HAND BASKET??

Vista laptop wireless can ping other computers but not see them in Network window
Hello Bob Lin,

Vista laptop wireless can ping other computers but not see them in Network window
Hello Bob Lin,
I don't get any system errors when I do that. When I run it on the Vista machine it successfully reports back the computer description (from My ComputerSystem PropertiesComputer NameComputer description) and a list of the shared folders that exist thereon. This is true of any computer that is turned on, both XP and Win98. Thank You, -plh In article , MS-MVP\ says...
