re: Cannot Connect to Computer on Network Wednesday, May 7, 2008 at 6:21 am Posted by Charlie Hadden (1338 messages posted) If it is a wired setup, try changing the wires around and see if the problem changes to a diff. machine. Router wire connectors are notorious for failing. Make sure your workgroup is the same on all. Though I have connected OK with dissimilar workgroup names it is said that Vista is picky about that. Recheck your settings and on the router even though you have 3 machines working successfully, there should be a reset button. Possibly a small hole that a pin gets inserted into. Try resetting the router. Many routers are not Vista compatible out of the box (older ones). See if you can get a 'FIRMWARE' update for it.
