Hi I have two machines with XP pro on each.
Although A can see and ping B, B can't see A nor can it
ping A. However when I connect A to the net the two can
then see each other.
I have used the network wizard several times to no avail.
Confused!
 
Thanks for the advice, but I have checked Computer B and
the Firewall is checked off.I run Zone Alarm on A but have
B listed as a trusted zone.Problem exists whether Zone
alarm is on or off.
Maybe linked to this, when I dial off, if I want to
reconnect, my modem dials up, but my browser is not
connected and I get the usual server error, it will
connect if I restart my computer.
Thanks in advance
