Re: Networking on Vista blows. said by dslwanter:I don't think speeds are the problem, how about stupid things. If I switch from a wireless connection to ethernet and try to access other computers on my network, only way I can do it is manually type in the path to each PC. The XP computers have trouble picking up my vista laptop as well. That works just fine for me (Vista Ultimate laptop + XP Pro desktop + Vista HTPC + Linux based NAS). I'm also running a WINS server on my ClarkConnect gateway / NAS box though, which would probably help resolve your issue. With WINS enabled, I'm able to connect to network shares over my VPN without having to mess with IP addresses too. The only member of my LAN and VPN that does have trouble with network shares is my Asus EeePC, but that's a whole other can of worms...
