    W7 looks ok, you haven't included XP.

    I just wanted to see if they are both on the same vlan.

    Type ipconfig /all in command prompt of each machine, and post the results.
    Here I put it in the form of a Mediafire download.
    My bad I just noticed I left out Windows XP, let me try that again.

    On your XP, what happened to your Local Area connection? It on'y have Local Area Connection 2.

    Can you screenshot your XP's network connections (view with details).

    Ok I need you to explain again.

    To answer your question, I noticed that was strange that there was no Local Area Connection it just has a red X threw that connection so I disabled it, but I do have a good WiFi connection I tried to bridge the two but that seemed to be no good to.

    Back to you last request can you explain? Because I don't have the software on that pc to do so.

    So your Local Area Connection 2 is a bridged connection? We need to address that issue you have with the red X on the Local Area Connection. Can you delete the bridging, and enabled the Local Area Connection.

    Screenshot would help.

    Ok if I can get you a screenshot are you asking for LAN > Internet Protocol > Properties?

    And as for now I do not have WiFi and LAN Bridged, only disable, I have enabled it, but even with it set to automatic assign it does not want to, when I try to see what Status it is at by right-clicking, Status is not accessible. Is this is where you want a screen shot?

    Do you need another Ipconfig/ALL?
