| | Re: Network Discovery Hi Network discovery is for detecting the Devices that are on the Network . From a point of view of the Network there is No difference whether the device id using Wireless or Wire. If you would explain what functionally is on you mind, may be a better answer can be found, Jack (MVP-Networking).

| Vista Ultimate x64 | Re: Network Discovery Hey jack, Sorry, What I am trying to work out here is that sometimes I use a wireless connection, and other times a wired, and both connections are available in the same place (my house). I want to be visible ONLY on the wired connection but not on the wireless. when i select network discovery ON for LAN i can see my networks other computers, however I can also see the wireless networks computer (and they can see me) and this is not what I want. |

| | Re: Network Discovery Hi To avoid the Wireless showing up in the network you have to Disable the Wireless Card. Drag a Link to the Wireless Connection Icon from the Control Panel/Network Connection to the Desktop. Right Click on the icon and choose Disable. Right Click and choose Enable when needed. Otherwise, if you just want to choose priority you can do this, http://www.ezlan.net/metrics.html Jack (MVP-Networking).
