OK, let's do some diagnostic work. Take the following code (everything INSIDE
the "#####" lines). Please DO NOT include ANY portion of the "#####" lines.
Follow instructions below, precisely.
1. Create folder C:\Utility on your computer, and make that folder part of
the Path.
2. Download PSTools (free) From SysInternals. Copy all components of PSTools,
unzipped, into C:\Utility.
3. Open Notepad. Ensure that Format - Word Wrap is not checked. Highlight
then Copy the code (Ctrl-C), precisely as it is presented below, and Paste
(Ctrl-V) into Notepad.
4. Save the Notepad file as "cpsserv.cmd", as type "All Files", into
C:\Utility.
5. Run it by Start - Run - "cpsserv".
6. Wait patiently.
7. When Notepad opens up displaying c:\cpsserv.txt, first check Format and
ensure that Word Wrap is NOT checked! Then, copy the entire contents (Ctrl-A
Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) into your next post.
And post BELOW my posts.

Do this from each computer, please, with all computers powered up, online, and
connected. Running this code from each computer will give us a more complete
picture of how each computer is setup, and what each computer can see from the
others. On a completely working LAN, running this, repeatedly, would be
redundant. Since you're here, it probably won't be for you.
