Hello all i have a desktop which connects through my router, and I have a laptop that connects through the same router. They are on the work-group called GLADIATOR and I can ping the ip of the desktop on the laptop and it works and vice verse. But when I go in to the network I can only see the desktop on the desktop pc and laptop on the laptop pc. I need to see both of them. I want to share out a hard-drive that is on the desktop (1tb storage) but when I go to browse I can not see the other computers. Oh and network discovery is on on both pc's. And if I create a Homegroup on the desktop I have no option to join it on the laptop and vice verse. Any help?
