I am going to pull my hair out!Wireless Networking Win7
Folks, thanks in advance for reading.
I would first like to say this is not my first network to setup, however I am new with the Windows 7. I am currently using a WRT160N router v24-sp2 (09-08-09)BS's build 12874, who is repeating a wireless signal of another router. I have in the past with Windows XP, was able to successfully transfer data between the computers on the network, send print docs to the shared printer on a computer in the network.
I cannot however not do this with two fresh installs of Windows 7. I can however connect both the PC's to a hardwired connection to the router and share just fine between the two machines. I know they have the same subnet, and they are on the same IP range. I have tried to ping PC1, by both its network name, and IP address, from PC2. I seem to get a loopback response on PC2, something along the lines of PCS(IP address):destination host unreachable. The same can be achieved when pinging PC2 from PC1.
Is there something different within Win7 that I am not aware of, that in WinXP things are easier?? I have tried ipconfig /flushdns, release, renew. Everything I can think of, I just can't get it to work through...
No, I have not assigned anything static to any of the computers, however I have thought about it. As I said before I have tried to ping each PC from each other. I get what seems to be a loopback error.
And I would like to say that these two are sitting physically side by side. And yes all the firewalls are disabled, one doesn't even have a anti virus on it. The other is AVG pro 9
Both computers ping the router just fine obviously they can ping the router if the route print shows it.
All the computers on the network that receive a IP from the host router, can ping the router just fine, and receive DHCP from it dynamically. I also see the computers from the router and ping them from the router. There is no firewall on the network at as of now.
EDIT: something really weird just happened, before they couldn't ping each other and all of a sudden I could get replies. However still I can't see each other
