Networks

Hey guys.

Recently reloaded my PC's at home and setup my network between the two. Basically running two PCs, one notebook via wireless and a media player on the same network, all through a Netgear wireless ADSL modem/router.

What is annoying me is that I can browse each PC from the other and also browse the media player from my PC. The notebook also show via the wireless. What I can not manage is to browse the network via the media player. I suspect that my network has created itself in a domain and hence the player can't access the network. How can I change this or even just see if it is a domain? PS the router is set to auto assign IPs.

PS Running Windows 7 64 enterprise

Any help here would be appreciated.

Ok, so I take it you set it's IP manually? Or is it on DHCP?

If it is on DHCP from your modem, it should have a domain, unless it's some sort of high end router. Does it have an operating system etc?
 
PC's are auto assign and router is the standard 4 port wireless entry jobbie set to DHCP.

Ek wil net my netwerk non-domain maak.

Hmm, ek dink jou windows PCs gaan altyd 'n domain he, al is dit die default een. Dit maak nie rerig saak nie though, solank daar IP connectivity is.

Hoe "browse" jy jou PCs met die media device?
 
Met die internal browser gewoonlik. die player het sy eie tipe file browser waarmee jy drives etc kan browse.

Ah. Het hierdie device enige vorm van 'n CLI? (command line interface) of iewers waar jy 'n ping test kan doen na die PCs toe? Hoe is die device connected? Wirelessly of wired connection?
