Hi,

I have checked all the other posts and can't seem to find the answer to my problem.

I have an XP Laptop and an XP PC. The WDTV Live will sometimes see the laptop and the shares... other times it mysteriously disappears. The PC is a non starter, it won't even see it, let alone the shares.

I also have a hacked WDTV with usb ethernet that works fine so I know the PC and the Share must be fine.

I have checked and tried to eliminate everything, services, apps, firewalls, etc. I still can't make heads or tails of this. Really annoyed with this thing now.

Help, anyone, please!

I managed to resolve this, turns out the cause was one of the IANA blocklists in Peer2Guardian restricting requests from the WDTV.

If anyone uses peer2guardian make sure you are not using the IANA list clearly labelled as Don't use on Network machines .
