Brief description:
Six PCs wirelessly networked accessing the Internet through a wireless ADSL
router.
All the PCs, including the problem one, can access the Internet.
The problem PC can access and open shared files on all the other PCs
which can also see and open shared files on each other.
All of the other PCs can see the problem PC and its shared folders but
cannot open them.
In the "My Network Places" folder on any of the computers, the problem PC's
shared folders only show up once, but if I run a search for it, even from
itself, it appears twice in the search results. There is DEFINITELY not
another PC with the same name in this network, nor has there ever been.
There are no bridged (bridging?) connections.
Apparently someone in our office spent 3 hours on the phone with
Microsoft about this and got absolutely nowhere. Does anyone have any ideas?
