There are several other possibilities too, and any might be the cause of your problem.

C Chuck Mar 4, 2006 #4 ALSO Here is the ipconfig /all info Click to expand... <SNIP> Paul, The ipconfig information is most useful when presented in pairs. And with as much detail as possible. But there's one clue on that ipconfig! Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Peer-Peer <http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/address-resolution-on-lan.html#Peer-Peer> http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/05/address-resolution-on-lan.html#Peer-Peer I'm not going to predict that fixing the "Peer-Peer" will fix all of your problems, but you should start there.

Thanks for letting us know, Paul. Frequently, multiple problems coming together make any such problem really challenging.
