Default networking ME to win 7 via router

Greetings Mike,
yes sir, did all the network turn-on I could find, did restarts of both
win 7 and router just in case they need a reboot to setup.
tried it with a password and then without.
neither would id any ME's in the win 7 network screens..

as I say earlier, I'm no network person but from the experiences I had
with the ME setup, something is missing with the cross platform
link.
the ME's will see each other but not the win 7,
and with the win 7 being newer you'd think it should see the ME's but
so far it hasn't..
least wise the way I'd doing it..

it's no big thing, but would have been nice if I could transfer files,
but I can live without it...

tks all

Win 7 should be able to see and access Win Me systems with little problem.
Have you enabled network discovery in Win 7's Network & Sharing Centre
Advanced Sharing Settings?

Greetings,
Noel, no good with the networking, so far..
the ME's will see each other but neither will see the win 7, nor
the win 7 see the ME's..
I've also added a vista to the mix but haven't had a chance to try it
yet.. (side note, everybody can access the wan through the router, 2
ME's, 1 vista & 1 win 7)
Tks anyway..
