Cannot Share Networking On LAN Adapter 3 - 4

Aug 19, 2009

just recently upgraded from XP and I have this issue that is really annoying me.

I have like 4 onboard RJ45 LAN network ports on my motherboard and so far I can only share the second one with internet and file sharing but it I cannot enable the 3rd and 4th port, because the internet sharing only allows me to select one connection only.

As seen in this image I can only select one, under "Home network connection" this option did not even exist in Windows Vista.

Is there a way I can share my internet and file sharing with port 3 and 4 as well?

Networking (to File Share) Between Win7 And Winxp

Mar 15, 2009

I have been struggling to figure out a way to network my Windows XP Professional (wired desktop) with my Windows 7 (wireless laptop).

I have already gone back through the 16 pages of this forum, and tried the suggestions for Is there a way to file share with XP?, Netorking between 7 and xp;Cant get it right, Win7 Wireless PC Doesnt See Wired XP on Network, cant see xp machine under win7, and even XP to 7 Printer sharing and can see printer from xp but not 7, but to no avail. Or at least, I am not doing it right.

I've been trying to work with a 'home' network on Windows 7, and with firewalls down on both PCs. I do not have a homegroup setup on my Windows 7 box. Both OSs are fully patched. I shared my "Desktop folder" with everyone. When I open up the group "Workgroup" on my XP machine, I can see my Windows 7 computer and my XP computer, but I cannot access it. I get this message instead:
  
Quote: Originally Posted by XP machine " [PC name] is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The network path was not found.

I cannot see my XP on my Windows 7. Link Layer Topology Discovery (LLTD) Responder was already on my XP machine (tried to DL it from the link and install, but my PC told me I already had a more recent version of it), I've set up advanced sharing and disabled password sharing on Windows 7, I've enabled "Microsoft network client: Send unencrypted password to third-party SMB servers", and enabled all sorts of virtual access to my Windows 7 and XP. Nothing has worked.

Can someone help me out?

I am not ashamed to admit that if I have to be walked through it from the beginning, I'll take it. I just want to be able to pull files from my Desktop to my Laptop, and vice versa.

DLINK Router And Adapter Networking Driver

Nov 11, 2009

I will be buying a new computer (64 bit). I currently run a 3.5 year old Dell (32 bit) with XP Pro and connect wirelessly with a DLINK router and adapter (DLINK DWA 130 Rev C) which is an N router, which replaced a G level router about 4 months ago. Would it be possible to download a driver that will work on the new machine now, or should I bite the bullet and add an adapter to the new computer? I emailed DLINK and have had no response.

Display Adapter Is Stuck On Standard Vga Adapter

Apr 10, 2012

I know there are several threads but they are with different cards and they didn't solve my issue...

I bought a new MEDION AKOYA P5334E and the system arrived installed normally with Windows 7 home edition.

I've installed on the computer the Windows 7 enterprise edition (x64) and many drivers could not be find. I've installed nost of them, except the display adapter. It's stuck on "standard vga graphic adapter". I have the AMD Radeon HD7570 card but no matter what I try is not working! tried to uninstall the current driver, tried to download the driver from the AMD website (when executing it - it's running but does nothing). when executed the auto detect from AMD website, I got the message "we were unable to find your product or OS"

XP To 7 Networking

Jun 30, 2009

I set up my 7 machine on an XP network. The 7 machine sees the shared folders, and I can get to them with no problem. When I try to look at the 7 machine from the XP side, it asks for a user name and password. I never set one up, because I would like to run an open network. (I live a mile down a limerock road with no close neighbors.) Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Why in the world did Microsoft change the default network name?

Mac Networking

Jul 16, 2009

I have a new PC running Windows 7 RC, but I can't get it to find the shared folders on my Macs, nor can my Macs see the shared folders on the PC. Any ideas how to get at least one way working?

I'm running 10.5.7 on the Mac, and if I "Connect to Server" and dial in smb:// and the PCs IP address, I get a login window, but it won't let me log in. It says I have incorrect user name or password. But I have no password on the PC.

Also, I followed the advice in another post, Accessing Mac and windows 7 on same network - Mac Forums), but it didn't make any difference.

Why Is W7 Networking So Different ?

Apr 6, 2009

Right. First off i admit to not knowing a lot about networks but im sure this isnt right. I have a wired network at home and on it i have a Popcornhour media streamer.

With XP as soon as the OS has loaded i can go to the Network browser on the PCH and it sees my work group and the PC and i can access my shared folders. Same thing the other way around. If the PCH needs a re boot its all up and running agin within a min or so.

With Windows 7 7068 i have to wait anything up to half hour before my PCH can see my work group.

Same router, static IP addresses and DHCP server turned off.

Any ideas guys?

Networking A DOS Program?

Jan 14, 2013

They have a peer to per network, formerly with two windows XP computers. On the main computer, they have their main accounting program, which runs on a DOS version of Lotus Works. It's old, but she knows it so well, and it does everything they need. She recently upgraded her main computer to Windows 7, and was able to get Lotus Works running, and, with the LW folder shared, they can actually open Lotus Works from a second computer (running Windows XP) just fine. There is no local copy of Lotus Works on the Windows XP computer, it simply starts the program from a shortcut targeting the LW.exe file as mapped. This has worked fine for quite a while.Over the weekend, they wanted to upgrade the Windows XP computer to Windows 7, (replacing it with a new computer) I was able to set up their peer to peer network, mapped the second Windows 7 computer to the LW share and tried to make a shortcut to the LW.exe file. (both computers are now running Windows 7 Pro, 64bit version) I realize I'm going to have to change compatabilty mode, but the problem is getting a working shortcut on the desktop. UAC is off on the second computer, but I get the following message when trying to make a shortcut.:"Windows cannot create the shortcut check to see if the disk is full" The machine where I need the shortcut is running AVG 2012 Free edition and Windows Security Essentials. What would be preventing me from being able to create a shortcut?

I have three PC's all on Windows 7 running on a home network. I have a good PC which has been replaced, which I would like to put on the network with four hard drives, I would like to backup the data from each PC onto its own HD in the PC.

I have looked at several programs to effect a real time backup system but need some advice at to which to use. (preferably a freeby as being retired money is short) If possible I would like to be able to restore each program data seperately if required, rather than have to restore all the backed up data to a certain PC as one file. Any help gratefully rec'd.

HomeGroup Networking

Oct 18, 2008

Microsoft had tried to get its "Castle" networking scheme into Windows Vista, but the feature will finally appear in Windows 7 as HomeGroup. Essentially a combination of workgroup networking with file and media sharing, HomeGroup makes it easier to create a home network where PCs share pictures, music, videos, documents, printers, and other resources with each other.

Networking Over Two Routers

Jun 3, 2009

I am running Windows 7 RC 7100 (of course) and I'm wanting to get a network setup between two computers over two routers. Here's my story:

I just moved in with two of my friends and we have 6 computers (3 laptops and 3 desktops) and we have 2 360s and 1 ps3. So needless to say my friends 5 port router wasn't enough for all the equipment so we decided to use my router with his.

Now after a day of configuring we have it running smooth and playing games with no troubles but there is one problem we want to access media on the ps3 from all the computers. I can access my media from the ps3 no problem since I'm on the same router as it but I can't access my friend media because he is on the 2nd router.

We have two belkin routers the main one has my friends PC, his 360, his ps3, and my router connected to it. My router has the remaining two pcs and my ps3 connected to it. Does anyone have a solution to this problem? I have tried putting the systems on one work group but that failed.

I also tried connecting to one homegroup but I can't detect his group and vice versa. If anyone could tell me how to set this up I would be grateful. My friend thinks it's might involve the routers DHCP but I'm not sure.

How To Networking Between 2 Computers

I tried to read the tutorials from this forum regarding networking. I am too dumb to understand. They are all Greek to me.

Is there a " How-to for Dummies " instructions for connecting my 2 laptop computers ? Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit SP2 Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1

They are both wireless enabled, but because my Vista computer battery refuses to charge, it is always plugged in. ( $124 for a battery replacement ? No way. )
In fact both my laptops are plugged in all the time. ( don't laugh ).

ISP is Bell.net.

XP / Win 7 Networking Problem

Nov 11, 2009

It seems that sharing files between win 7 and xp is quiet the common problem. However, I am not finding a clear answer. I read through a lot of posts on different forums, and tried many of the suggestions.

I am running win 7 pro on my laptop, and win xp pro on my desktop. I have both machines in the same workgroup. I ran the wizard for file sharing on the XP machine, and it can succesfully see my other XP home computer on the network. On the win 7 laptop I went through the set up for sharing as outlined in the forums. So basically network discovery etc is on, im not using home groups etc.

If i look in my network folder, I see no other computers, except of course for my own shares. I installed a fix on the XP machine which was suggested, called the link layer something ( i forget the name now, I could look it up). Still nothing.

Here is the twist. If i type in ipadress then I can access the XP machine shares without ANY problems. (copied some files jsut as a test). Similarly, I can access the Win 7 shares from XP using the above method.

Now, how do I get the computers to pop up in my network window, so I can actually view which computers are available and select my shares?

Oh, and I dont believe that I have to wait 15 minutes for the computers to actually get discovered. That would be a pretty big mistake on the part of windows 7, given that Xp discoveres without delay.

Questions Regarding Networking

Nov 17, 2009

I've got a few questions regarding networking in general and then some issues that have popped up since upgrading (in place) to Windows 7.

1) Generic question: If I were to install a Wireless N router would the wireless network default to the slowest connection on the network? For example, if I had two N wireless adapters and one B adapter would the entire network run at B speeds? If so, would a dual band router allow me to circumvent the issue?

2) Generic question: Would the same issue as outlined in #1 be a problem in a wired network? Can I mix 10/100 and gigE on the same wired network and achieve gig speeds between gig-enabled devices?

3) Specific: I have an HP dv9500t that I upgraded to Windows 7. HP has not released Windows 7 drivers for this machine but I have been able to work around the few issues that I encountered. However, my wireless connection to my Linksys AP (Wireless-G broadband router WRT54G2 with up-to-date s/w) seems to be dropping and recovering on a regular basis. I have not seen the issue on any other wireless network. If I am downloading a large file (say 1G) the d/l will proceed at full speed for ~45 seconds and then drop to zero for ~45 seconds. I'll usually get the "limited connectivity" alert but then the link will restore itself and begin transferring again.

I've run some of the Linksys diags when it is down and it usually tells me that the default gateway is unavailable and resets my wireless adapter and the whole routine starts again. Quite frustrating. I've worked with Linksys tech support (they claim no known issues with Windows 7) and their supposition is that it is an interference issue and they suggest I change wireless channels.

I've tried 6 different channels and the issue does not change. I have tried upgrading the adapter drivers the the latest available from HP (Vista drivers, not Windows 7) and have also tried drivers from the adapter manufacturer (Intel Wireless WiFi link 4965AGN, Win 7 drivers) but the issue is still there. I have also rest my AP back to factory defaults to no avail. It certainly could be that I have burned through yet another wireless AP but before replacing it I wanted to see if anyone might have suggestions.

4) Since, as far as I know, Homegroup cannot be used unless all of the PCs on the network are Windows 7 I am trying to utilize Workgroup settings to config my network. The problem is that my wirelessly connected laptop does not seem to have access to my wired workgroup unless I set the SSID of the AP to the same name as my workgroup. Is this normal operation or is there a good tutorial around showing me how to set this up?

Networking Pro, Home, And XP

Nov 20, 2009

My main server at home runs Win 7 Pro (64). I configured its sharing so that another one of my PCs that runs XP Home (32) can access public shares on the server and access a shared printer on the server...and life is good. I can access those shares and the printer without a username and password.

The problem - another desktop that I have running Win 7 Home (64) cannot access those shares without entering the credentials for the server Win 7 Pro server.

I am confused. How can the XP server access the files without any username/password but another client running Win 7 Home is required to enter a username/password?

Networking Will Not See Non Win 7 Computers

Nov 25, 2009

I've spent 2-3 days now trying to solve the networking mysteries of Win 7.

In a nutshell. This computer (Windows 7-64) cannot see the other computers and shares on our small studio network except for the windows 7 machines (also Windows 7-64). (the other computers/shares are all XP)

We have 2 identical machines side by side, one can see all the computers, this one cannot. Both are fresh installs.

There are approx 8 other machines/shares on the network.

Both computers have vista installed on a seperate drive that see the network fine if booted into.

Both have homegroup turned off, and have workgroup enabled with the same workgroup name "WORKGROUP". Both have discovery and file sharing enabled. Both use the same network controller, and have the same updated Windows 7 driver.

-I have tried turning on/off iv6 (which I see some people think/don't think is an issue).

-I have disabled FIREWALL

-I have disabled anti-virus

-I have rebooted after each change

-I have tried different locations/cables on the hub

-I have tried the cable/hub location on the Windows 7 computer that is seeing the network computers.

ps. I forgot to mention that if I type in the IP address in addres bar I can access one of the other machines, but it will not show up in the network window.

I am really at a loss, and have read about every post I can find, and tried every suggestion.

Win 7 To XP Networking Issues

Dec 11, 2009

Trying to network my XP desktop and Windows 7 desktop. The Windows 7 machine is connected by wire to a 2-wire wired/wireless router. The XP machine is connected via wireless D-Link DLW-G510 to same router. I have internet connection from both devices with no problem...but cannot get either to see each other from the other. Using the 2-Wire interface I can see both devices on the network thru the 2-wire router. But I cannot see either machine from the other via network in windows.

I have Windows 7 machine set to Work network, sharing and discovery enabled, and passwords required turned off. On the XP machine I used Network Setup Wizard to setup the network on that end. On both ends the workgroup s named "WORKGROUP" and the machines have unique computer names...Windows 7 is USS-Excalibur, XP is USS-Excelsior.

Yet neither sees each other. In addition, I have a work laptop running Vista connected to my corporate work network via the same 2-wire router (wired). And I can see that laptop device from the Windows 7 machine when I show the network map, but not the XP machine.

Win 7 To Xp Networking Issue

Dec 24, 2009

Okay, I just got a new laptop with windows 7 on it and I am trying to network it to my xp home network. On my xp computers, laptop and desktop, I can see my windows 7 computer but can't access it. Even turned off the easy file sharing and still can't access it. Cant even ping the windows 7 from them. The windows 7 laptop doesn't see either of the xp computers. I can ping them from the windows 7 laptop but can't actually see them on the windows 7 laptop.

I am using a linksys router and can access the internet just fine on the windows 7 laptop and it is connected wirelessly. I have read through several threads trying to figure this out but most people can see the xp from the 7 but mine is the oposite. I made sure they are all setup on the same workgroup name that is how the xp can see the 7 but that is as far as i can get.

Windows 7 And Virtual PC Networking

Jul 14, 2011

i am quite disappointed to see the lack of support for Microsoft's Virtual PC networking configurations. If there is anyone that can help me with this,I have Windows 7 Ultimate x64 as primary OS installed. I have also installed Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 (not Windows XP Mode). Inside this virtual machine, I have installed Windows XP Professional (x86). I need to have the Windows XP connect to Windows 7 via networking. According to most threads, I need to install Microsoft Loopback Adapter in Win 7 to be able to connect the VM to Win 7. I have configured the loopback adapter (on Win 7) to use IP 192.168.1.1, subnet 255.255.255.0, no default gateway and DNS server addresses. On the virtual machine, I have set the LAN connection to use IP 192.168.1.2, subnet 255.255.255.0, no default gateway and DNS server addresses. No connection.
