Network Nightmare

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless (More info?)

I'm going nuts. I've been reading posts (many similar to my problems) but
have not been able to figure out my problem. I obviously don't know what I'm
doing.

I'm trying to set up a home wireless network with file and printer sharing.

I have:

Netgear WGR614 v5 wireless router connected to Cable modem.
Router is wired to desktop running XP Pro SP2
I'm broadcasting to laptop running XP Home SP2 with Netgear wireless pc card

Internet works fine on both. I've run Network Wizzards, disabled firewalls,
uninstalled LAN, reinstalled, tried most everything I've read from many
places. Nothing helps. I've disabled antivirus on both computers.

From Desktop, I can ping router and laptop, but not self. I can only ping
IP addresses. Pinging computer names fails. My Network Places shows shared
folder on itself only. Clicking View Workgroup Computers shows nothing and
causes the control panel window to "not respond".

From laptop, I can ping self, router, but not desktop, again, IP addresses
only. My Network Places shows shared folder on itself only. View Workgroup
Computers shows desktop and laptop but desktop is not accessible.

Sorry for the redundant post, but I'm about to chuck the whole thing out the
window.

Can you create a Bridge with the network and the wireless.
'may can fix your problem.

If the internet works fine on both, then it sounds like the physical network is
OK, and your problem is not wireless. You may get more help in
microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web.

If you can access the internet, but not ping other computers by name, it sounds
like a name resolution issue.

Provide ipconfig information for each computer, and we can see what to look at
next.
Start - Run - "cmd" - Type "ipconfig /all >c:\ipconfig.txt" into the command
window. Open Notepad, make sure that Format - Word Wrap is NOT checked!, open
file c:\ipconfig.txt, copy and paste entire contents into your next post.

That's a start, but is not terribly useful without the same for the laptop.

I worked through another microsoft troubleshooting script and it sounds like
a problem with my Routing Table (can't ping my own IP) and a problem with
Host Name Resolution (can't ping any computer names). Problem is, they don't
tell you how to resolve these matters, they just say that might be your
problem.

I reset the TCP/IP stack on the desktop. No help.

Is the laptop used on another network at all, for example your place of
work?

Could you check both pcs have different host names and that they are both
members of workgroup with the same name.
It would appear that both pcs have correct tcp/ip settings hence they both
browse the web ok but for them to talk to each other they have to be members
of the same workgroup which is were its falling over.

They each have unique names (PERSONAL, and OFFICE) and both belong to the
workgroup MSHOME. As for the "host names", I'm not sure what you mean. How
do I check this?

Hoste name is what you call unique name, could you confirm that client for
ms network and file and printer sharing are both ticked in network
properties.

OK, having assembled IPConfigs from both computers, let's enumerate your
symptoms. Hopefully this will not greatly duplicate the "microsoft
troubleshooting script" that you mentioned separately, though it will help me
determine what questions to ask.

Take the following code (everything inside the "#####"). (Please verify
computer names and ip addresses).

Open Notepad. Ensure that Format - Word Wrap is not checked. Highlight then
Copy the code (Ctrl-C), precisely as it is keyed, and Paste (Ctrl-V) into
Notepad. Verify, and correct, names and addresses if necessary.
Save the Notepad file as "cdiag.cmd", as type "All Files", into the root folder
"C:\".
Run it by Start - Run - "c:\cdiag".
Wait patiently.
When Notepad opens up displaying c:\cdiag.txt, first check Format and ensure
that Word Wrap is NOT checked! Then, copy the entire contents (Ctrl-A Ctrl-C)
and paste (Ctrl-V) into your next post.

Do this from all computers, please, with all computers powered up and online.

You mentioned the ability to ping by ip address but not name, ie a name
resolution problem. IPConfigs though both show Node Type = Hybrid, so no
problem there.

CDiag (requested in other post) may show the necessary clues.

What Personal Firewalls and AntiViruses do you have, or have ever had, installed
on either computer (active now or previously)?

Also, check for a browser conflict between the two computers. I"m not talking
about Internet Explorer here. The browser is the program that allows any
computer to see any other computer on the LAN. On a 2 computer LAN, having both
browsers active can cause problems.

Make sure the browser service is running on one of the computers. Control Panel
- Administrative Tools - Services. Verify that the Computer Browser, and the
TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper, services both show with Status = Started. Stop, then
Disable the browser on the other computer.

After checking / disabling / enabling as above, power both computers off to
reset the browser settings on each. Then power both back on again.

The Microsoft Browstat program will show us what browsers (I'm not talking about
Internet Explorer here) you have in your domain / workgroup, at any time.
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=188305

You can download Browstat from either:
<http://www.dynawell.com/reskit/microsoft/win2000/browstat.zip>
<http://rescomp.stanford.edu/staff/manual/rcc/tools/browstat.zip>

Browstat is very small (40K), and needs no install. Just unzip the downloaded
file, copy browstat.exe to any folder in the Path, and run it from a command
window, by "browstat status". Make sure all computers list the same master
browser.
For more information about the browser subsystem (very intricate), see:
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=188001
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=188305
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=231312
<http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winntas/deploy/prodspecs/ntbrowse.mspx>
<http://www.microsoft.com/technet/archive/win95/w95brows.mspx>

The browser requires anonymous access, so look at registry key
[HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa], value restrictanonymous, on both
computers.
<http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/en-us/default.asp?url=/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/en-us/regentry/46688.asp>
<http://www.jsifaq.com/subf/tip2600/rh2625.htm>
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=246261
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=296403

The above articles refer to Windows 2000. Remember WinXP is NT V5.1, and Win2K
is NT V5.0.

Have you used the Registry Editor before? If not, it's a scary tool, but it's
pretty simple once you get used to it. Here are a couple articles that might
help:
<http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/using/productdoc/en/default.asp?url=/windowsxp/home/using/productdoc/en/tools_regeditors.asp>
<http://www.annoyances.org/exec/show/registry>

Just remember to backup the key (create a registry patch) for
[HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa] before making any changes, if
appropriate.

From the Annoyances article:
You can create a Registry patch by opening the Registry Editor, selecting a
branch, and choosing Export from the File menu. Then, specify a filename, and
press OK. You can then view the Registry patch file by opening it in Notepad
(right-click on it and select Edit). Again, just double-click on a Registry
patch file (or use Import in the Registry Editor's File menu) to apply it to the
registry.

Firewalls: Windows XP only on both (currently disabled).
OFFICE (desktop) has Norton Anti-virus with Auto Protect (currently disabled)
PERSONAL (laptop) McAfee VirusScan ASaP installed, not running.

When I initially set up the network, everything was running (rookie mistake).

Browser and TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper running on OFFICE and PERSONAL. I have
now stopped and disabled it from PERSONAL.

After changing these setting, I generated the following:

I got the following from "browstat status":

Status for domain MSHOME on transport
\Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{8702C635-D751-4E61-81E2-9E40A839F0EE}
Browsing is NOT active on domain.
Master name cannot be determined from GetAdapterStatus.

Also, did you get my response for all the IP diagonistics from both machines?

I'm looking at the CDiag output right now.

You need TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper service running on both computers.
<http://www.blackviper.com/WinXP/service411.htm#TCP/IP_NetBIOS_Helper_Service>

You only need the browser running on one computer, so disable the browser
service on Personal, but enable the TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper service.

After starting TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper on Personal, let's look at browstat on both
computers in detail.
Start - Run - "cmd". Type "browstat status >c:\browstat.txt" into the command
window - Open Notepad, make sure that Format - Word Wrap is NOT checked!, Open
c:\browstat.txt, copy and paste into your next post.

I have the browser service running on Office as well as TCP/IP Helper.

I have the browser service disabled on Personal and have just started TCP/IP
Helper on Personal (it was disabled).

Running Browstat on Personal produced:


Status for domain MSHOME on transport
\Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{F055D41A-9E08-4072-BE8F-333637054779}
Browsing is NOT active on domain.
Master name cannot be determined from GetAdapterStatus.

and on Office produced:

Status for domain MSHOME on transport
\Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{8702C635-D751-4E61-81E2-9E40A839F0EE}
Browsing is NOT active on domain.
Master name cannot be determined from GetAdapterStatus.

Hope this helps. Thanks for working with me on this.

Weirder and weirder.

Office can't see itself as the master browser, nor can it even ping itself.
Office can access Personal with no problem, so it's not a connectivity problem,
or a lack of protocol problem.

Can ping other computer but can't ping itself has to be a misbehaving firewall.
You say Office has Norton AntiVirus, is that maybe part of Norton Internet
Security?

Let's look at the static routes for each computer.
Start - Run - "cmd". Type "route print >c:\route.txt" into the command window -
Open Notepad, make sure that Format - Word Wrap is NOT checked!, Open
c:\route.txt, Copy and paste entire contents into your next post.

Could maybe be an LSP / Winsock problem.
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=318584
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=811259

1. Start - Run - "cmd".
2. Type "netsh winsock reset catalog" into the command window.

Give LSP-Fix <http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm>, WinsockFix
<http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=257>, or WinsockXPFix
<http://www.spychecker.com/program/winsockxpfix.html> a shot.

If no help yet, reset TCP/IP.
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=299357

Start - Run - "cmd". Type "netsh int ip reset c:\netsh.txt" into the command
window.

Norton Antivirus IS part of Norton Internet Security (I didn't realize I even
had this)... which had a security setting "on". Turning this off has fixed
all the problems. Another (serious) rookie mistake. Thanks for all your
patience.

Kewl. NIS again. Thanks for your persistence.

Using NIS inside a router is NOT totally wasted time or CPU cycles, so consider
re activating NIS, and configuring it properly. Stay safe.
