Looking for some help with my home network setup.
I trying to run a small two computer network using the SMC ADSL Barricade Router SMC7401BRA. I have no problem connecting to the internet from both computers. But neither computer can see each other on a local network.
My configuration is as follows:
1. Computer running Windows XP Professional
1. Computer running Windows Me
1. SMC EtherEZ Hub 3608T-EZ
1. SMC ADSL Barricade Router SMC7401BRA
Both of my computers are connected to the SMC ADSL Barricade Router SMC7401BRA via the SMC EtherEZ Hub 3608T-EZ. As I stated above, both can access the internet with no problem. I ran the Windows XP Network Wizard on both computers but still cannot see each other. I looked all through the manual that I downloaded from the SMC-Europe website for the SMC ADSL Barricade Router SMC7401BRA and as far as I can see everything is set up correctly. I have tried to ping each computer directly and can not connect.
The setup on my Windows XP computer is as follows:
IP Address. . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.33
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1
The setup on my Wndows Me computer is as follows:
IP Address. . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.11
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1
I do not have DHCP enabled in the WAN configuration settings of the Barricade Router, should I? If I should, what should I use for the host name?
When I run the diagnostic test from withing the Barricade Router configuration utility, everything passes.
I am really confused, I am sure that the problem lies with some type of configuration error within the Barricade Router or Windows XP settings. Any assistance in solving this problem is greatly appreciated.
