I have Vista Ultimate with a router WRT54GS and have no problem with the internet. When I run ipconfig /all I get NetBIOS over TCP/IP = Disabled. How do I enable that? Thanks

Thanks for the reply, unfortunally it did not do the trick.
I run ipconfig /all again and Net BIOS is still disabled. "Robert L. (MS-MVP)" wrote in message ...

Check out config panel - networking center, and set the network to Private if possible. I run ipconfig /all again and Net BIOS is still disabled. As far as I know, NetBIOS is an obsolete protocol that you don't need to talk to Windows XP.
