Windows 10: Windows 10 cannot see other computers in "Network", but able to access using IP directly

Problem as stated. I'm able to browse shared files from other computer using "\\<ip-address>" directly in File Explorer. But the only "Computer" in "Network" tab is the localhost.


Any help?

:)

 

One computer cannot access other network computers.


So I've tried every troubleshooting step I know:

• Double checked that Net Bios was enabled
• Ran a bunch of network commands:
  • flushed DNS
  • registered dns
  • pinged and located the named computers successfully
• Reset my router to factory settings

Nothing works when I try to access via explorer. I'm still baffled by the fact that every other computer can access each other AND access this computer. It's just the outgoing connection from this machine that doesn't work.

Any thoughts?

 

How to connect IP cam with Windows 10?

Hi,


Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



An IP camera is a web cam that is used for security surveillance and the data can be directly access over a network connection. As you can access these over the network connection, you will need a device password to access them as they are secured. The device
password is provided by the manufacturer of the webcam. So I would suggest you to get the password from the manufacturer and then set up the IP cam. Once you're able to setup the IP cam, you will be able to access it on Windows 10 or even on a smart phone.




Hope it helps.

 

Win10 computer suddenly unable to access printer on home wifi

For some reason, the printer lasted less than 24 hours printing correctly, and now I again can't fix it, even by doing what "worked" before (Comment #6 upthread).

Regarding the static IP suggestion:

1. The printer is connected via USB to a Windows 7 computer on the home network. It's not on the network by IP address. Here is a screenshot of the printer port properties.
   
   
2. Although there ARE "headaches" as is said above, the vast majority of the other computers on the home wifi network, NEVER have had a problem printing to it. And this applies to computers that have run XP, Win7, Win10, and MacOS. For the most part until now, it's included the particular Win10 computer in question.
3. If I still might be able to give it a static IP address, will this affect the other computers that have been able to print to it fine using printer name?
