Trying to network 4 computers with no internet using switch
I am trying to network 4 computers (2 running Windows 7 Pro and 2 running windows 7 home premium). Each computer needs to have a static IP (10.19.1.99, .98, .97, and .96) with subnet at 255.255.255.0. Default gateway is blank.
When the computers are all on and connected to my Linksys 5 port 10/100 Workgroup switch, all the networks show as Unidentified networks in the network and sharing center and all are public. I am unable to change this.
I am also unable to "see" the other computers in the network map.
I have searched multiple threads and done many things but I can't seem to figure it out.
I do not need internet, just to be able to see all the computers and use and move files between them.
