and if it's still not working, then i have no idea 🤔[/b]
Is it possible that I call you or someone who can help me with this?
Try running the Network Setup Wizard from Start>Accessories>Communications on all the notebooks n pc's connected to the router and provide a common workgroup name each time when prompted. Open Network Connections and see if the other comps are visible. If yes, try to share folders on one, by right clicking on them...Properties>Sharing (rest should be fairly obvious) and see if you can access them from the other machines. If not, Start>Run>services.msc and make sure the 'Server' and 'Computer Browser' services are running on all the machines.

Hi all,
Thanks for all your help. I finally found out the problem. Like you suggested, I added all the 3 computers to the same workgroup. But it also made me switch off the firewall. After I turned off firewall, I could access any PC from any other PC. I use Zone Alarm. Could someone guide me on how to add exceptions so as to allow PC to PC access with ZA not turned off. Thanks.
