View 3 Replies View RelatedI am running a laptop (Windows 7) and a desktop (Windows XP SP3), with the laptop connected wirelessly and the desktop connected by ethernet cable to a Linksys modem / router. Both computers can always connect to the internet. The laptop can (almost always) print from the usb printer connected to the desktop. Only on about 30% of occasions can I see the other computer in Windows Explorer or the equivalent, and therefore cannot access all the files. I can usually ping the other computer by ip and get a reply. I can rarely ping the other computer successfully by name unless I ping by ip first.

I was wondering what steps I would go about taking to ensure that while monitoring these computers, I could also if needed choose to close out of a program when I see it misused, or take control of it when necessary?

So, there is a total of three seperate offices each with their own Internet connection and each on a different ip scheme. They all want to be able to see the Win XP computer connected to this x-ray computer. Ideally, they would each want to be able to run their dental software on this computer.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to share a printer on Windows Server 2003 machine so that my other computers can access the print share from my server. originally i was hosting the print server from one of the workstations (running Windows XP SP2). I now want the printer share to be hosted from the server. I set up the printer correctly (to my knowledge). i was able to set it up and print a test page. But when i go into properties and attempt to share the printer, i click on Share this Printer and enter in a name, i designate it to list the printer in the directory. Then i click apply and ok... and nothing happens. the printer is not shared. When i go back into properties, it shows that i am not sharing the printer.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThat is: that I have a slow general storage drive that is becoming full. A fast HDD for recording onto with fraps and for programs that I won't use with fraps. I then have an SSD as my main drive which gets VERY full VERY quickly. I then have another computer that has a pretty quick 1TB RAID 0 running and a gigabit network, the network being the bottleneck but still pretty damn quick (120MB/s which is plenty fast enough).
Now, what I intend to do is have my storage drive stay as is; my fraps drive to continue it's job, and then for my old computer to store my big programs to run off, things like games. Is it possible to do this as when I've tried it says I don't have permission even though I gave access to the whole HDD from the network. (I'm installing on this computer but changing to the mapped network drive for the install directory).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to transfer files from Laptop A to Laptop B. I can transfer files from B to A, but I can't transfer them from A to B. When I try to, I get an error message saying "Windows cannot access Laptop A".It then gives me the option to diagnose the problem (I'm using Vista on both laptops, by the way). When I click that, it gives me the error of "Cannot communicate with Laptop A. We pinged the remote host but did not receive a response".Laptop A is connected to the network according to it, it can access the internet fine and can access other laptops on the network fine. I have disabled the firewall, shared the folders appropriately, made sure they were both on the same workgroup (they are both on the default Vista WORKGROUP), and still nothing.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have this idea of using my old computer (which is still pretty awesome) as a back up + production server. What this would entail would be that each person in my house has a dedicated hard drive that auto-syncs folders they've selected for backing up (not Memeo under any circumstances!). Then there will be a hard drive for me to work on web projects on. I'd like this computer to be very secure but if needed, I could show my work on the production drive to my boss.
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy home network is all Windows 7 computers (4 total), and are Ultimates except for my laptop, which is Home Pro. So that's 3 computers with Ultimate and 1 with home pro. I have one computer (also Win 7 Ult.) that's my primary computer, the other 2 computers are mostly HTPC computers that I have set up to stream from my main computer.I do know how to set up Home groups for sharing files, but I could only set it up that there would be full access to the shares or no access at all. [For simplicity: My primary computer will be PC-1, the 2 HTPC's will be PC-2 and PC-3, and my laptop PC-4.]PC-1 will host all the files I want access to. PC-2 and PC-3 will access my music and videos folders for streaming. PC-4 which is my own personal laptop will have full access to shared folders that I DO NOT want being able to be accessed on PC-2 and PC-3.I have tried many and various types of ways to deny access from PC-2 and PC-3, where PC-4 would be allowed access to on my PC-1, but every time it's either all PC's get access or NO access to the shared folders. I also want to keep all my user accounts as admins.

My area has recently been having problems with the broadband and Virgin has recently fixed these problems. However I used to get around 19mbps now that the problem is fixed my computer which is wired to the router gets about 0.4mbps downstream... However the 5 wireless computers all get 16mbps which is pretty good for them. Windows tells me that its a firewall issue and I currently can't use two programs, spotify and steam. They both have firewall issues, even if I turn off my firewall which is the windows one. I also have avast, and when I turn that off, still no good. I used OpenDNS, stopped using that flushed my DNS, that didnt work. I tried to optimize my computer settings, by changing various values in Regedit.All of this has done nothing. I should add that I have recently re-installed Windows 7 so on this fresh install it has never had decent internet speed. Which I thought was weird.. I have basically had these problems since the fresh install. All of my drivers are up to date.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a home network running all Mac computers (though can run Windows VM if necessary) and a pair of USB printers. The wireless router and cable modem are in one room, but the printers are in another. I'd like to find the most practical way to add the printers to the local wireless network without sharing them from a computer. I've tried that for a while, but don't want to leave a laptop connected 24/7 just to enable wireless printing (rather defeats the purpose of a portable computer). I don't have any wired network lines in the home, and am not excited by the idea of running any cables.

View 3 Replies View RelatedUploading keeps switching from ridiculously slow to nonexistent. When it's ridiculously slow, it can take 5-10 minutes to upload a 100kb photo. When it's nonexistent, it basically disables my connection, and the only way to get it back is to reboot. It doesn't seem to matter what website I'm on; anything from uploading a photo to Facebook to trying to attach a file to Gmail does not work. It's definitely computer-specific, because I have a second laptop on the same network that uploads just fine.

Im planning on implementing a forefront tmg on my server, normally id connect the modem straight into the switch but to make sure all the traffic goes through the software firewall ive connected it through the servers integrated nic.So now ive got lan access to the modem and its webgui but no Internet access the ip of the nic is (192.168.0.11,255.255.255.0,192.168.0.10) and the modem is set to 192.168.0.10But again no Internet access is detected and i cant ping the isp's dns servers.Just so you know where im going with this i plan to use a static route and nat (built into forefront tmg) to forward all wan traffic through the integrated nic. Ive already tried to use PPPOE with the above setup and im able to share the internet over the entire network using routing and remote access in server 2008 but installing forefront on top of this configuration isnt supported as forefront takes over routing and remote access with no demand dial support.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently moved my computer from my home to my girl friend's house, and there is a minor problem. The laptop that has win7 already is in a homegroup. For some reason my computer(win7) does not want to connect to their homegroup. But I moved past that. Now I am trying to connect to her computer. She has Win xp. I used the same Ethernet cord from my house that I used to share internet over at her house, and I cannot seem to find out what is wrong. On the win7 it says Unidentified network-No Internet Access, and on the XP it says limited or no connectivity. I set the XP ICS to on (share) for the Ethernet port. The XP has the internet and is using a USB wireless adapter to a router. My computer is way to far from the router and neither can be moved.
Notes: I can share files, but no internet can be passed. XP = Host and Win 7 = Client

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've not been able to upload anything on this computer now since about July that's more than a few kb. This has been since I reformatted the hard drive.That means:
1. I can't attach anything to an e-mail
2. I can't upload anything to fb
3. I can't upload anything to sendspace etc.
The problem is only on this computer. I've tried the router on another computer and I can upload on that. I have tried the following:
1. Turned off Firewalls.
2. Turned off Norton Antivirus.
Nothing. I am on Vista and there are no additional service packs downloaded.I have also tried the speedtest site. It is unable to do the "upload" test. Downloads are fine.
