I have my home network set up as a peer to peer with 3 computers (all windows
XP) connected to a router, connected to a cable modem. I also have a wireless
router as a second router for wireless connections.
2 computers work fine on the network...they can see each other, share files,
printer, network drive ect...
My second laptop can connect to the internet, but cannot see or use any
devices in the work group. This is the case wheter I am using the wireless
connection or the ethernet connection. When I go to my network places...no
LAN information... When I go to control panel > system>computer name...name
and work group are listed. However, when I click change...the computer name
can be changed but the workgroup name is not accesable.
One thing of note...This computer was working fine at one point. I had
Nortons internet security installed and subsequently uninstalled
it....haven't been able to use the network since....coincidence??
Any help appreciated. I have tried all the Microsoft networking trouble
shooter to no avail.
