Hi.
I am using a D-link DI524 router to share my broadband between my desktop
and laptop. They are both connected to the router with cables and the
broadband cable is connected directly into the router. The internet works
fine, but i am not able to set up a network between my computers. I can ping
my desktop from my laptop but not vice versa. Both workgroups have the same
name and everything and i have turned all the firewalls including any
antivirus's down. Can anyone help me set it up?

Any help is appreciated
 
If you are using the Windows XP firewall disabling it is fine, but if it's a
third-party firewall you must uninstall it rather than disabling it. Many
add-on firewalls don't fully disable themselves even when asked. Then see
if you can set up your network with the Network Setup Wizard, then
re-install the firewall software and configure it for networking.
