Hi i have an adhoc wirelss network between 2 computers used mainly for internet connection sharing. I am using third party internet connection sharing software because the windows version kept losing its settings. On the computer with access to the internet, you can browse the files on the other computer without problem. However on the other computer, access to the others files is random. Sometimes it works, the rest of the time i get the error:
\\Main was not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions
You were not connected because a duplicate name exists on the nework. Go to system in control panel to change the computer name and try again
A duplicate name does not exist on the network! I have tried renaming the computer anyway but the problem comes back.
This error occurs despite the status showing connected and internet browsing on both computers being fine.
And if i dont have permission to use this network resource, why can 5 minutes later it be working fine without any changes/activity on either computer
Please hel
