XP Home Network

[Alex H]

Hi

I have two computers both running XP Home. They are both in same workgroup.
Both can Access the ADSL router and can ping the router, but they cant see
each other.
Have tried pinging each other, no good

I have run the configure small network wizard, but no difference

Is there something I am missing to getting these two computers to see each
other.

Thanks

This is usually a case of a misconfigured firewall. Go through this
