Hey Robert, Chuck, Barb [or any MVP],
I upgraded my Netgear router WGR614v6 to WGR614v8. I have a Vista Premium
laptop, LAPTOP-PC, and XP Home desktop, DESKTOP-PC, connected to the router
using a WIRED connection. I have no problem accessing the internet from
either of them.
[I think] After replacing the router, this problem started. DESKTOP-PC, if
visible to LAPTOP-PC, is no longer accessible. "Windows can not access
\\DESKTOP-PC" and the error code is 0x80070035. And, from DESKTOP-PC,
LAPTOP-PC is not visible under "My Network Places". Both computers are set
to the same workgroup, "WORKGROUP".
I added the router IP and MAC address to the "Trusted Site" section of
Norton Internet Security on DESKTOP-PC. On LAPTOP-PC, I only have AVG
anti-virus installed.
I have the entire C drive shared in DESKTOP-PC, allowing network users to
change files.
In LAPTOP-PC, under Network and Sharing Center I have:
Network Discovery On,
File Sharing On,
Public Folder Sharing On [anyone with network access can change, open,
create files],
Printer Sharing On,
Password Protected Sharing Off,
Media Sharing Off.
I thought I covered all the bases here. Any ideas? Barb, I know you have the
same router, maybe there is something else that needs to be configured?

I thought I would add the IPCONFIG /ALL. Is the DNS server setting correct?

I can't think of enough expletives to write down here...
Norton Internet Security's firewall needed the MAC Address - the physical
address of the Router, as seen from the local LAN, as opposed to the MAC
Address - the physical address of the Router, as seen from the Internet.
Why are there two different MAC addresses???????

Your router has two different network interfaces - one public and one
private. Each NIC must have a unique NIC (although some routers let
you clone the MAC address of an internal computer, but you are
shielded from the effects of it).

It seems odd that they differ by only 1. The internet port MAC is
00:1B:2F:F3:87:87. And, the LAN port is 00:1B:2F:F3:87:86.

Ha, ha, yes,
Bashing Norton seems to be in style these days. What Internet Security
software would either of you recommend? Let's see if we get a match from
both of you.

Yes, for Vista. But, I was talking about XP. XP requires Internet Security
software. No?

Windows Defender is available for XP. There is a version of the
Windows Firewall in XP. And when you are home, your router has a
firewall as well (SPI).

I did not know that Windows Defender was available for XP. Windows update
has never revealed this.
Is this something you have to download seperately apart from windows update?

So, I should be able to get rid of Norton if I use Defender and AVG Free
Anti-virus on my XP desktop? This is all I use on my Vista laptop right now.
