Hi Experts,

Right now I am completely exhausted. If anyone
wants a real challenge, please try the one below
and persuade these two computers to connect.

TIA
===============================================================================
Win2K & Win 7 Setup Details for LAN

A Workgroup was setup - Box 1 with Win2K, and
Netbook with Win 7 limited, and am trying to
connect them. Box1 has a folder called Share1 and
NetBook has a folder called Share. At present both
computers can connect to the Internet but not to
one another.

Connecting up

The ADSL modem is connected with a Cat-5 cable via
its DSL socket to the other DSL socket on the
phone wall plate. RJ-45 cables connect the LAN
port on the modem to the Internet port on the
router, and Port 1 on the router to the NetBook. A
Cat-6 cable connects port 2 on the router to the
NIC in Box 1. [This is where a picture is worth
1000 words]
----------------------------------------------
Box1 Setup Details and Data for LAN

"To find other computers running earlier versions
of Windows, and to use file and printer
sharing on any version of Windows, open these ports:
UDP 137, UDP 138, TCP 139, TCP 445, UDP 5355"
The TCP 445 is available for file and print
sharing on Box1.

"To find network devices, open these ports:
UDP 1900, TCP 2869, UDP 3702, UDP 5355, TCP 5357,
TCP 5358"
None of the above ports appear in my firewall.

NETBOOK Setup Details and Data for LAN

The same Workgroup and users are used here and a
Home Network was chosen.
This seems to automatically setup Network
Discovery and opens the required ports.

When I use a browser to check \\Netbook\Share
it immediately opens Share.
