unable to view workgroups in home network
I am unable to view my workgroups in our home network. We can get online with our wireless connection, but I can't view the workgroups and configure pc's or view shared files and printers. I've tried the registry fix from Microsoft Fix It 50135 but it didn't do anything and I tried the Help instructions to repair the registry ie: To resolve this issue, follow these steps: Click Start , click Run , type regedit , and then click OK . Locate and then click the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBt\Parameters In the right pane of Registry Editor, delete the following values if they are present: NodeType DhcpNodeType Note If the NodeType value is present, this value will override the DhcpNodeType value. If neither subkey is present and if no WINS servers are configured for the client, the computer uses b-node mode. If at least one WINS server is configured, the computer uses h-node mode. Quit Registry Editor. Restart the computer. Try to view workgroup computers on the network again neither subkey is present and if no WINS servers are configured for the client, the computer uses b-node mode...??? What does this mean and where do I check the WINS server configuration?? I did not see either of the subkeys present and didn't see anything about WINS servers...so I guess mine is in b-node mode?? I restarted and still not able to view workgroups. Please help! Thanks!6 people need an answerI do too
