Windows Explorer > Network can be viewed by clicking Network on the left side navigation pane:
Highlighted part of Explorer screenshot above shows computers belonging to same subnet.
Command ipconfig /all in Command Prompt also shows computers and devices in your network.
If your device is not shown in these, it will not belong to same subnet or as UsernameIssues has told previously in this thread it is hidden from network. In this case you need to change network settings on your device (Blackberry).
I have absolutely no knowledge of Blackberries so I can not help you in that.

Oh, no it doesn't show up. It shows up in my router though. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Professional x64 CPU AMD Phenom™ 9500 Quad-Core Processor Motherboard MCP61PM-HM (Nettle3) Memory 8 GB DDR2 OCZ Graphics Card Power Color 5750 Monitor(s) Displays HP w2207h PSU Corsair TX 650w Case Cooler Master 690 Advanced Hard Drives 2x Seagate ST336032 0AS SCSI 326 GB,

The only way to see everything on a network is to scan it with tools like nmap and use the network ID as your target. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64 |

Kari Thank you taking the time to explain. I was probably overly concerned with those that find this thread via Google after some frustrating searches of my own that led to one dead end after another. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Employer provided Dell E6430 OS W7 Pro SP1 64bit CPU i5 3320M @ 2.6GHz Motherboard 0CPWYR Memory 4GB Graphics Card Intel HD Graphics 4000 Screen Resolution 1600 x 900 Hard Drives 119GB LITEONIT SSD Antivirus Employer mandated Symantec Endpoint Protection Browser Firefox, IE9 & IE8 via VM |

Than you guys for the input. This is very useful.
I do agree, Kari is a star.
May I have another question? How to have the IP address of the machines (exclusively the machines)?

The only command I know to show IPs of all networked PCs is ipconfig /all. | My System Specs | | Computer type Laptop System Manufacturer/Model Number HP ENVY 17-1150eg OS Windows 7 x64 Ultimate CPU 1.6 GHz Intel Core i7-720QM Processor Memory 6 GB Graphics Card ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5850 Graphics Sound Card Beats sound system with integrated subwoofer Monitor(s) Displays 17" laptop display, 22" LCD and 32" Full HD TV through HDMI Screen Resolution 1600*900, 1680*1050 and 1920*1080 Keyboard Logitech diNovo Media Desktop Laser (bluetooth) Mouse Logitech MX1000 Laser (Bluetooth) Hard Drives Internal: 2 x 500 GB SATA Hard Disk Drive 7200 rpm

If your dns server is setup correctly. You should be able to use
nslookup FQDN
FQDN= fully qualified domain name.
Find your fqdn with
echo %COMPUTERNAME%.%USERDNSDOMAIN%
example from work:
C:\Documents and Settings\CParman>echo %COMPUTERNAME%.%USERDNSDOMAIN%
CPARMAN-8DFCMF1.CORP
update:
%USERDNSDOMAIN% only works on a domain
So you can get it with the ipconfig /all output. Code: C:\Documents and Settings\CParman>ipconfig /all
Windows IP Configuration
Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : cparman-8dfcmf1
Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : CORP
