Ok... Time to ask someone else, I haven't had any luck figuring this out the last week.

Windows 7 Ultimate Machine... 64 bit version... has been working reliably on a home network with 8 Linux based servers and three media Players( 5 different flavors of Linux total) for a number of years. Wired gigabit Ethernet home network.

All of a sudden I can't even see the Icons in Network on my machine... the rest of the network works fine as switches and router shared and everything else works... except this.

Had a problem when I first set this up years ago (early adopter of Win 7 here)... then got it to work and can't remember what I did then. Tried many things... nothing has worked...

I can ping them... I can't otherwise see them. Any suggestions?
