Machines Vista cannot see the rest of the home network

I don't know what's happened recently, but here's the thing.

I have a home network, 1 Vista desktop, 1 Office XP with shared USB attached, 1 drive NAS (running Linux kernel I think). All devices set to the same workgroup 'HOUSE '. Until recently, I could see all the devices in the Vista machine with the selection of 'network' of the Explorer.

Now I see that me, the wireless router, and if I turn it on, an another Vista laptop. The Vista laptop has the same situation - he sees only the vista desktop and router and anything else3.

I can connect to the XP computer manually by entering \\computer_name\external_drive_name and even with the NAS drive. I can't see the with the Vista Explorer.

I can't say exactly when it happened, but is has been in the last month. I see the console of restoration that there is an update Tuesday 4/11, but if I try to restore before this date of restoration fails.

Discovery network, file sharing, etc., are always turned on. I tried to do a complete reset of the router but nothing helped.

FYI - Norton of 365 security card option fortunately shows everything on the network, so I know that all devices are in the same workgroup.

Any advice would be greatly welcome.

I solved the problem with advice from another forum. I forced the desktop computer to become the master browser by setting 'MaintainServerList' in the registry for the 'yes' rather than 'auto '.

I can now see all the connected devices.

    Here in the forum, you can find 100 or discussions on the wireless LAN using.. Please search for it.
    Use of WLAN you should check the TCP/IP (DHCP or IP) WLAN card settings and you should use the same standard WLAN (e.g. 802. 11b) as on the router. Then, you should see the router and if you know the password, however, you can connect.
    If you can find t the router, disconnect it from the AC/DC adapter for 5 minutes and then plug it in again.

  • XP computer does not access the Vista computer on the home network.

    I have a three home computers I'm trying to set up using two with XP - Pro (all updates including SP3 installed) and a third with Vista Home Premium (SP2 installed, all the updates that are installed to date). The two XP machines can connect (access) between them, but they cannot access the Vista machine. The Vista Machine can access the two XP machines. I've tried every tip/trick that I can find so far and nothing. Ping on each pc test, uninstalled the Norton firewall, permisions changed part to the best of my knowledge on all PCs, I am the owner of the computer and to assume with a single account on Vista I have right to full ownership, contacted the manufacturer of routers (performed an upgrade), but nothing is allowing access to the Visat pc.  When you view the network connections on the XP machines, Vista is listed, I can click to open and see the folders to share, but when I try to open a file I get the error\\xxx\xx is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact. admin of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Access is denied.

    It's funny that I can find other users to comment on other forums that they are experincing the opposite scenrio with access denied on XP machines... Thanks in advance for any help...

    Hello

    Uninstall any software antivirus and then check to see if you can access the Vista computer again.

    Warning: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software.
    If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    The /data/home/USER/.timemachine is where Time Machine stores data, this folder is always the default value / 1 volume of the NAS and can never be moved.

  • Win 7 computer cannot see the computers on the network

    We have 3 computers on our network. A desktop computer running a laptop running Win 7 x 64, an office equipped with Win Vista and Win XP. All 3 are connected to the same workgroup and are properly connected to the internet. The two workstations can see and the laptop on the network and can move the files to the laptop, but the laptop cannot see other computers on the network. Whenever I try to open the network to move files to another computer, the icon just mouse sits and turns and the page remains blank. I thought that maybe he just needs time to see everything, left like that for hours without success. I went through all the troubleshooting steps in the win7 with nothing working Help Center. I don't understand why, if all the computers are on the same network, they can see me, but I don't see them. I am obviously connected properly so they can move the files to my computer. It may be unrelated, but I also can't update windows, keep getting error 80246008 when I try to run the update. Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this?
