Unable to reach or to authenticate to a new homegroup

Original title : what is worng with my home group

greetings to all.

I use Windows 7 ultimate 32-bit os. I am trying to create a homegroup, it does not join. I get no error message. I am able to create the home group (HG), but on the other computer which has windows 7 ultimate 32-bit, it cannot accept the password, tried to change the password and also tried without success. Network troubleshooting I tried and convenience store HG on both computers. deleted the HG and created on another computer but the problem is the same in the 1st computer it won't take password it just hangs...

what I did to solve is: -.

Update the firmware on the router that I connect wireless on both computers

the wireless card update

disabled, anti-virus and firewall on both computers

as I said most early tried two convenience stores

checked with different router

disabled password and sharing in other ways as well

network discovery is on

Update windows\

Done SFC and no problem

Finally, I tried to access the network without hg folder
and when the password was not activated, I wasn't able to access the shared driver that he was showing empty and when I enabled sharing of password I was able to access the shared folder

I tried to give permissiosn for sharing and permissions of folder for everyone and I'm only using 2 computers so that I can share my drive external HARD with my roommate...

Help, please...
Please let me know if you need info...

I'm willing to give more info, but please help it is a request...

Hello

Disable the password of sharing on both computers to see if that helps.

Start - type in the search box - homegroup - find top and Double click in - change
avancΘs sharing - sharing protected by password - tick Turn off password protected
share - SAVE the changes.

I guess that one of the computers running something or it has been implemented to
prevent the homegroup to work. Homegroup settings is actually fairly simple, unless
It happened. What it is may be hard to find.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Try a clean boot to see if that helps - clear all the not not necessary to support
the HomeGroup and Windows Basic.

    It is most likely your problem then.  Your VPN clients, 10.240.25.0/24 can get to the Site, but because the Site doesn't know how to return to 10.240.25.0/24 traffic is lost.  You will need to advertise out of site B.

  • Routing and remote access - on three subnetworked, two subnet unable to reach to the internet!

    Hello

    Good evening everyone.

    I had a problem in Routing and remote access on windows 2003 server.  This server is already configured as a file server, domain server, and application server. Also configured as a router (thanks to access routing & remote) to connect the three different networks with each other. If this server has three NICs installed and each separate NIC network cards represent.

    three different networks are - 192.42.160.0/24, 192.42.161.0/24, 192.42.162.0/24

    Three cards of the NETWORK adapter installed on the server as with the IP - next

    NIC - 1 = 192.42.160.220, Sub - 255.255.255.0, gateway - No.

    NIC - 2 = 192.42.161.220, Sub - 255.255.255.0, gateway - 192.161.220.112 (this ip address for internet access then 4 g router IP)

    -3 = 192.42.162.220, NETWORK cards, Sub - 255.255.255.0, gateway - No.

    Now the question is I can get Internet & (also scathing in router ip 192.42.161.112) one network i.e. - 192.42.161.0/24, BUT when I try to access the internet from another two network (192.42.160.0/24 & 192.42.162.0/24) I can not access and in addition can not ping to internet router ip - 192.42.161.112...

    So, how do I access the internet to another two network also?

    I was already the configuration of static routing for all three network but I wasn't always successful. I don't really know what exactly static routing this should be done in access routing & remote area so that all three network can reach to the internet?

    Here is the result of the current track...

    Hello, I have laptop Aspire R5 - 471T - 71W with the NIC of the Qualcomm Atheros QCA61x4A wireless. I have the Linksys WRT1900AC wireless router configuration to support the chain of 80 MHz, I have the latest Firmware & drivers for installed devices. Run Win10 pro on the Aspire. Even in the same room that the WRT1900AC router, longs it reached only 802.11n connection speed. How will I know if I'm actually in 802.11ac and Win10 falsely reported my connection speed using the details of the network & sharing Panel as 300Mbps?

    Hello Jordan,.

    Thanks for the pointer... I had two bands with separate SSID. Channels of communication were also in automatic. What I didn't have was the network Mode in the joint framework. Documentation of Linksys seems to be lacking on how these parameters affect the configuration of the WRT1900AC AC speed.

    I am now at 866,3 Mbit/s.

    Thank you for your prompt and accurate diagnosis of the root cause.
