Hey, sorry in advance, I've been up all night on this machine, and my brain
is freezing at troubleshooting this.
I have a machine I've reformatted and reinstalled SP2.
I have two wireless laptops connected through a Linksys router that is
plugged into a DSL modem.
The two laptops used to "See" each other, could ping, share files, etc.
Here is what I have done to restore this:
- On the rebuilt machine, I named it what it USED to be called
- I assigned it the same workgroup as the other machine
- I ran the "Set up a home or small office network" wizard
- I turned on "File and Print Sharing" in Network Properties
- I have opened the HD up under Sharing and Security.
And I STILL can't see the other machines inthe workgroup. What am I missing?
Do I have to reboot every machine?
Do I have to rename the workgroup?
Thanks!
