2 nodes (both xp computers) attached to a cheap unmanaged hub which is then
connected to Rogers Modem.
Both computers can access the internet. Node 2 can access the printer
attached to Node 1. But they cannot see each other. I have shared the C:
drives on both computers but it just wonk work.
Worth noting. Everything was working perfectly until Node 1 installed
Internet Explorer 7.0.
Someone please help. |

Maybe I should clarify. Rogers Cable is my ISP. They provide what they call
a Modem that allows me to get internet. i have hub attached to that and then
the 2 computers attached to the hub. it has been like this for a couple of
years. right upto the day i installed IE7 on one of the computers. It hasnt
worked since.

Look at logs from "ipconfig /all", from each computer, and diagnose the problem.
Read this article, and linked articles, and follow instructions carefully.

There was a problem recently with Internet Explorer, and file sharing.

Are you paying for 2 Internet connections, connecting both computers by a hub,
AND doing file / printer sharing? That's dangerous as hell.

It's been like what?
What hasn't worked since?
What did it do before IE7 that it doesn't do now?
