Homegroup Networking Problem
I'm having problems hooking up to my media center computer in the main room. We share internet (wired) and I use my room computer sometimes to watch stuff from my media computer. Both are running Windows 7 and recently I have had serious problems with accessing the media computer from my room computer. I access it, then it starts dropping connections left and right, whether or not I'm copying from the computer or watching stuff straight from its hard drives. I would say it's the ethernet cord that extends across the house, but I get pitch-perfect Internet connection from the modem in the main room. It used to work just fine, and now it doesn't but I don't really know if I did something, as it would probably interfere with the Internet connection. Have tried from other computers temporarily wired in and have had the same problem. What are some solutions to explore with two wired computers that keeps dropping connections but can't be blamed on the cord?
Thanks
