Hi Experts,
I'd like your help in solving a problem I have with Vista and an ad-hoc peer-to-peer wired network.
When I run the wizard to connect to a network, it does not show the add ad-hoc network option, only four others for wireles, internet and vpn connection.
Also, although I have networked two PC's both running Vista, I cannot ping the second machine from the first and vice versa despite having added routes to both machines.
nslookup recognises the ip address of each machine, as does tracert
(I should point out that both machines obtain their iP addresses from a router which also allows access to the internet. Both machines can see the internet).
I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction
