crappy vista, can’t connect to LAN and can’t ping my own computer

by issha1 . Updated 18 years, 3 months ago

i have everything right-the workgroups match, i can even access the internet through the wireless router. i just can’t access the computers connected by cat 5 cables to it. it’s a little peer-to peer thing. what’s weird is that the router sees all of the computers that are connected to it, with their ip and mac addresses. i can ping my computer through the loopback but not through the router assigned address. i can even ping the other computers on the network, but i can’t map to them or discover them on the Vista network discovery. the network adapter appears to be working by device manager. can anyone help me to get this working? thanks
