Unable to See other Computers on Network

Guest

Good Morning,

I have 3 computers connected to a DLink DI-624 Wireless Router, and all
under the MSHOME workgroup. For some reason I cannot see any of the computers
in the workgroup on my computer. (AEHSMCPS789-1) now if I go to the other two
Computers I can see all three computers in the workgroup but unable to
connect to (AEHSMCPS789-1).

DESKTOP # 1 - AEHSMCPS789-1 Windows XP Pro. SP2 - 192.168.0.110
DESKTOP # 2 - AEHSMCPS789-2 Windows Media Center Ed. - 192.168.0.102
LAPTOP - AEHSMCPS789-3 - Windows Vista Ultimate - 192.168.0.100

All these computers are connected to the MSHOME workgroup. Am I not setting
it up correctly on Desktop # 1?I want to be able to see all other computers
from desktop #1 and be able to share files. Any Suggestions or Solutions
would help.
Thank you!

Can you ping other computers by IP? If not, make sure not firewall or security software blocks the traffic. If, yes make sure you enable the NetBIOS over TCP/IP. This troubleshooting may help,

Additinonaly, the IPs of computers should not be
limited(16x.xxx.xxx.xxx like smth) IPs provided by Windows. They
should be real local IPs which can be pingable. Loopback packets
confirms the physical connection.
