Wirles networking

capable to do LAN networking. (I don't know if that is the way to write it...
but I hope you can understand, if not please ask me). I connected a Windows
XP Home edition machine, through it, and a Window 98. I have another Laptop
running Windows 2000 Profesional, that even though it connects to the
internet, and I can see on Computers Near Me, the Windows XP Profesional
machine, I can't access it. (I used to do it before, but I don't know why I
can't anymore.) I can access information from the XP machine to the Windows
2000 but not from the Windows 2000 to the Windows XP. I Ping from the Windows
2000 machine to the Windows XP, and it replied. But when tried Net View, it
gave me this message "System error 53 has occurred. The network path was not
found." Both computers are under MSHome workgroup. Sometimes I can see the
workgroup, and open it, others it gives me a message like, workgroup not
found or something like that
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Ivette

Are you saying you have a SOHO router that offers wired/wireless
connections? If so, which one. Please be specific. I will point out where
you are not specific which will prompt for more information.

You got something similar:

Good. What is the network path it is referring to?

Error messages need to be specific and please be specific re: exactly what
you did to get the error message.
This is no good:
I tried to connect to the XP Pro machine from the W2K Pro machine and
couldn't. What's wrong?
This is better:
I opened up Windows Explorer, on the W2K Pro machine and looked in Network
Neighborhood but the XP Pro machine (fill in name) was not shown. When I
look in My Network Places on XP Pro, the W2K machine is listed.
All the systems need to have:
Client for Microsoft Networks
...loaded, be in the same workgroup and have the same accounts with the same
passwords on each machine OR you must provide the correct credentials
(username/password) when trying to connect. You also need a common
protocol, usually TCP/IP, that they are all running with IP addresses that
are on the same subnet. If TCP/IP is the protocol being used, and if
NetBIOS over TCP/IP is being used on one, you'll want it on another. Your
network settings will tell you.
To see what your IP configuration is on each machine, go to a command prompt
and type in the following:
ipconfig /all
Please provide the configs for the XP Pro and W2K Pro if you're still unable
to connect. If any of these has an IP address that begins with:
169.254.x.x then it's not getting a valid IP address. If the systems are
set for DHCP (obtain an IP address automatically) then we'll need to look at
your ICS configuration, if using that, or your router config, if you have
one.

I enable Netbios over TCP/IP on the Windows XP profesional machine, or on the
Windows 2000 and WIndows xp home edition machines?
izlopez
should net view IP, on a "good" computer or on the one that isn't accesible?
How can I verify that I have the correct DNS settings?, and how do I use WINS
and try LMHOSTS? Those are the suggestions that are written in the article,
but I have tried (the way I think it is) some things, but I still have the
same problem. I am connecting the network through the wireless modem. There
are two computers that see each other one running Window XP Home Edition and
other running Windows 2000 profesional. I can access between them, but I can
not access to the one running Window XP Professional, the one that has the
wireles modem. When I test IPCONFIG /all, all the computers have on the
Connection specific DNS suffix the name of the company of the modem
gateway.2wire.net and on the Node Type Broadcast.
THanks for your help,

I don't know Whats a SOHO router, but I have a modem that offers
wired/wireless connections. It is a 2wire 1800.

I have three Desktop, one with Windows XP connected to the modem or router,
running the ICS, other running Windows 98 (that its not connected now,
because this is a wired connection I had to temporarily disconnect, but that
was working fine) Another Desktop with Windows XP Home edition, and a Laptop
with Windows 2000 professional, I can acces share folders and drives between
the last two, but frome neither both to the one that is connected to the
router/modem which has Windows XP Professional

Thanks for the lessons, but that wasn't what happend, I can see the XP Pro
machine on Network Neighborhood under "Computers Near Me" , but when I double
clic the Icon representing the Windows XP Pro Machine, it doesn't show the
content, I get the Message "Computer (the name of the computer) is Not
available, The Network path is not found"

They are in the same workgroup (MSHOME) and I provide the user and password
when asked, but this only happens (or windows ask for credentials) when I am
accesing from the computers with Window XP PRo and Home Edition to the one
with Windows 2000

Visibly seeing them has nothing to do with access rights. This of shares as
a perimeter and NTFS rights as the 2nd layer. You need to be authorized by
both and shares have to come first. As with 98, the share and the NTFS
rights have to match the 98 user. The account needs to be the same and so
does the password.

My suggestion is plug all systems into the router, disable ICS. This should
disable routing on the XP Pro. Disable interfaces not in use on all
systems. Why does the XP Home have a WAN connection with a Class B address?
I'm assuming the 172.16.0.1 address is the router.
XP has a personal firewall builtin. What is set there?
Are there any 3rd party security apps involved, i.e. antivirus, personal
firewalls (Zone Alarm), IDS/IPS (BlackICE PCP), etc. ?

When it comes to using Professional XP with IE 6.0, it does not seem o be
good stratagies by juggling from the one computer to the other that has a
totally diffrent pahse of operating systems.
Multiple users for diffrent operatinfg systems confront the various problems
with its connection , Internet Explore , a sigh pop-up saying "This page
cannot be displayed". This is a thread from 2 Wire. They manipualte end users
operating system because they are concern about security , also holding their
business terirtory. I in recent made commnets on this kind of problems to
2wire. ( I have problems with Wireless Functions with Linksys,but the end
tiurnedout to alright. ) Surprisingly, they want me to keep an ethernet cable
to my laptop as well as SBC cable. If I moves the ethernet cable back to the
router(Wireless) with USB cable staying into My laptop, No connection to
internet"Yahoo" eventhough one of cable still incerted into my Laptop frpm
2Wire directly. This portal, or home portal should be improved.
