Windows 10: Network visibility

Just got a new modem and my W10 won't see it but does see some others. What can I do? I have rebooted.

My computer is not visible on network

Resetting the network settings may help reconfigure settings that may help resolve the issue. Since the issue still persists, we suggest checking the Advance sharing settings if network discovery is turned on. Follow the steps below:

• Open Control Panel.
  
• Click Network and Internet.
  
• Click Network and Sharing Center.
  
• Click Change advanced sharing settings in the left pane.
  
• Under the Private section, make sure that Turn on network discovery is selected.
  
• Click Save changes.

My PC is not listed in Network

Hi Eagle51 & thanks for quick response

I am very grateful for your help

1 was not enabled. I enabled it and restarted the HT-PC, but now the HT-PC is not visible in Network list on any computer.

...then i run 2 and both was true.

Next step?

 

How do i ensure my devices on our home network are not visible to others' devices on the same network?
