I have 3 pc's with identical hardware specs. All Pentium 4 2.4ghz and Netgear
100mbps ethernet cards connected to each other through a 10/100 hub.
Hard-wired not wireless. All cables have been tested and work.
I can share an internet connection between the computers. But I cannot
access any of the shared files or folders on any of the machines. And none of
the other machines see my pc on the network. But I can see them sometimes.
I have disabled all the firewalls, repaired the IP, set NetBIOS over TCP/IP
and even assigned all the pcs with their own IP addresses - 192.168.0.1, .2,
..3 and so on. And I've run the Network Setup Wizard a billion times and only
get errors or when its completed nothing works.
The error I get when trying to access the workgroup via My Network Places
says that the shared folder/pc is unavailable...depsite being able to share
the net access. And I cannot add the other pc's as a new network place. It
can't find them.
I can't ping any of the other pc's either. I get the "Request Timed Out".
And the net connection sharing goes in and out. Sometimes works and sometimes
doesnt.
If you could, please email me directly with any responses you may have.

Thanks.
Also. They all have Service Pack 1, not 2. 2 will not work on any of the
pc's. It locks them up.
