Windows 10: Computers having unstable communication over network

Computers on my network are able to connect to each other, but occasionally just not communicate. I've turned off the firewalls for the computers and the private network in my office. I switched out the GS724tv4 in hopes that it would fix it.


This is all started after someone accidentally killed the power for the off and quickly turned it back on again.


After spending hours looking through articles and learning how a switch even works, I still have no clue how to fix this issue.


Anyone have any ideas? Everything helps. Thanks.

Network Communication problem with multiple computers

Hi Jay,

Thank you for responding.

I suggest you to try the below troubleshooting steps and check if it helps.

Method 1: Network discovery might be blocking you from seeing other computers and devices on the network. Check if the Network discovery is turned on. If the network discovery setting on your computer is set to off, you
won't see other computers and devices on the network.

Steps to Turn on network discovery.

• Press Windows key, type sharing and click on
  Manage advanced sharing settings.
• Under Private, Network discovery, check mark the option
  Turn on network discovery.
• Try the same on all the computers connected to the network.

Method 2: If the issue still persists, run
HomeGroup troubleshooter and check.

HomeGroup troubleshooter finds and fix problems with viewing computers or shared folders in a HomeGroup.

• Press Windows key, type troubleshooting
  and select it.
• Click on View all in the left pane and click on
  HomeGroup.
• Follow the on-screen instructions.

Hope it helps. Kindly update the status of this issue for further assistance.
