HomeGroup Problems!
I am having problems getting my two computers to connect using homegroup.
One is a desktop which I built a few years ago. I have been running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit since like January no problem. The other is a Dell Inspiron 1525 that I just installed Home Premium 64 bit on to. I have been running Win 7 on it since January also, but decided to do a fresh install because I was having some issues on it.
Before the fresh install, the homegroup worked great. Now I cannot get it to work for the life of me.
I did search google, and saw a thread here, so I figured I would ask for some help.
Both computers are behind the same router: Actiontec PK5000
Desktop is 192.168.0.2 and the Laptop is 192.168.03 (wireless) or 192.168.04 (wired). I have the wireless turned off however, so it only is using the second IP.
I port forwarded TCP/UDP that I found on another site about a problem with firewalls. Both computers are using the stock windows firewall with AVG for AV.
The clocks are pretty much exactly the same. The only difference is maybe a few milliseconds.
I left the old group, restarted both computers multiple times, tried creating a new one on both computers also.
Every time I try, I get an error that says Invalid Password. The caps are right and everything, tried a few times, even tried changing it more than once, it never works.
Thanks for any help.
