I can't ping my desktop from my laptop. The desktop can
ping itself and the laptop. Both can ping the gateway.
Also, I can see the desktop from the laptop in the
workgroup, but when I click on it, it gives an error that
says"path not found". I can't see the laptop from the
desktop in the workgroup. I'm not using ICS and my ICF
is off on both computers. I am using McAfee but have
disabled the firewall on both machines. Thanks in advance.
