I have spent the better part of two weekends trying to get my XP w/ Service Pack 2 desktop to network with my Vista Home Premium laptop. Both computers are in the same workgroup (WORKGROUP). I have turned off all firewalls, both software-based and on my router. On the XP computer, I have installed the LLTD protocol. The XP computer shows the Vista computer in the workgroup, but when I try to

Hello, I have recently installed Vista on my desktop PC which seems to be having Internet Connection problems. My Desktop PC has 2 Network Adaptors each connected to separate routers. I have one router (A) with IP 192.168.1.1 on Adaptor A and another router (B) with IP 192.168.2.1 on Adaptor B. The only router with Internet Access is router B. The problem I have is when I open internet...

Does anyone know how I can send a file from a Vista PC to an iMac using a wireless network? For example, let's say I have a music file on my laptop, which connects to the router via wireless. My housemate has an iMac on the same network, connected to the router with an ethernet cable. I can't see his computer on the network in Vista, so how do I send him the file?

I have a wireless network in my home. I'm using a Linksys WRT160N router for the network, which is hosted off a tower PC running XP. The XP PC has an HP 7760 printer connected to it and it is shared. Prior to my recent router upgrade I was using Network Magic for the network interface and I was able to print to the HP 7760 from my Vista laptop. But since I upgraded to the Linksys router I cannot...

I have a 1.5T MyBookWorld ll Net Drive. It contains all of my important documents, programs, and backups. I'm unable to access it. All the folders have a gray X. A few weeks ago I had inadvertently hit the 'SYNC' button and couldn't stop it. I tried to remove it and wasn't successful. My search on 'how to' informed me that it's not removable (!@#$%^&*). Now when I check the properties of...

Hi, I have a gigabit network with a netgear gs605 switch. When copying files from my windows 2003 machine onto vista it does it at only 5mb per sec. But if I reboot my machine in xp (its dual boot) and do the same i get my usual 50meg per sec. I've tried search the net for the past 7 days but I have had any solution to this. Can someone please offer some advice?

My mapped network drives do not remember logon info. When Vista starts the drives are not mapped. If I click on the drive I am presented a screen for logon info but it is blank. If I enter the info it works until the next reboot. -- David Hettel

I cannot access the network drives on two vista computers. One is 64 bit the other is 32 bit. All permissions setup correctly (as far as I can tell) and the drives can be networked but unable to access those drives from the other system (Access Denied).

Hi everyone, i have just started my MCSE. any suggestions about where i can get some good practice from? pass4sure and ucertify is quite expensive. thanks a lot oliver

Hi Folks, I'm a newbie here, so bear with me and and point me to the right forum if this isn't the appropriate one. Been having problems with my Vista Laptop recovering from sleep mode. It insists on connecting to my neighbor's unsecured wireless network. (Its only sitting a few feet from my Linksys WRT54GL wireless router.) I open the Network/sharing center, manage wireless networks, and...

We are not able to connect to other computers on our network using Remote Assistance. We have four computers on a peer-to-peer network. Two computers are running Windows 2000, one is running Windows XP, and the other is running Windows Vista. Our Windows Vista computer connects well with all the other computers over the network and can access all shared resources. At this point we want...

First, I've searched the forums and cannot find a similar issue. My problems are I cannot access a specific folder and its subfolders on my data drive or setup network sharing on my LAN. I can access and share all of the other folders on the drive with no problems. I can "see" the problem folder and subfolders, but when I try to access the folder, I get the message "do not have permission to...

I have XP machines on a home network where all the networking is OK. I'm having such a variety of problems with the Vista on the network though. I have XP machines at IP addresses 192.168.1.50 (static) and 192.168.1.103 (current dynamic) they can ping back and forth and can ping my Vista at 1092.168.1.102 (current dynamic). But when I ping the XP machines from the Vista it times out. ...

I see several threads concerning similar problems, but not quite like this. I have several XP computers that have been communicating just fine between themselves for years. I purchased a nice Vista Home Premium 64-bit laptop and set up what I thought was a good file sharing system. Network Neighborhoods on ALL computers show each other as on the network - they are all in the same...

Hi, Could someone refer me to a good explanation how to share securly a folder between a Vista computer and a XP computer in a home network while not exposing it to both the internet? I have two desktop and a router (which acts like a NAT of course). Thanks Grace

Hi All, Did Vista change the way ping responds when it can not find the remote host? Usually ping will tell you that it could not find the IP you entered, not some other IP (the local machine's IP). Many thanks, -T C:\ping 192.168.1.10

Hi, This has got me stumped. My users' home folders are stored on a NetApp filer (cifs). "My Documents" and "Favorites" are redirected and are made available offline. On the filer, oplocks has been set to "on". When a user syncs his offline files from his Windows Vista Enterprise computer, the "view sync results" window displays a lot of errors (Details: "The process cannot access the file...
