Thanks for the reply. I was pinging by IP address only, but now I have
tried by computer name. Ping resolves the name of the computer I'm
pinging "Pinging MyDell [192.168.2.101] with 32...." so I guess DNS on
my router is working.

Per your response I have tried adding file and printer sharing and
Microsoft networks and I have tried the "net.." commands and mapping a
drive with no luck. I'm also in the same workgroup.

I've added my XBOX to the net and the router shows the IP address in
the DHCP list so I tried pinging it from my laptop and desktop, but
nothing. I was hoping one of them was setup wrong so at least I could
narrow it down to one. BUT, I'm not for if the XBOX blocks ICMP.

I'm beginning to think the MN-700 is blocking somehow, but I can't find
any settings in the management tool.
