But I could access the W7 pc from the XP pc.<\/p>\n<p>I checked \/ tried these things first:<br \/>\n-Network Troubleshooter (W7 pc)<br \/>\n-Network Discovery turned on (W7 pc)<br \/>\n-Simple File Sharing (I could not even find this option anywhere on the XP pc)<br \/>\n-I was NOT able to ping the XP pc from the W7 pc<br \/>\n-I was able to ping the W7 pc from the XP pc<\/p>\n<p>Solution:<br \/>\nWhen I disabled my antivirus&#8217; (KIS 2011) built in firewall, I immediately regained access to the XP pc from W7.<\/p>\n<p>It turns out that KIS 2011&#8217;s built in firewall had both &#8220;Local Services (TCP)&#8221; and &#8220;Local Services (UDP)&#8221; blocked under the &#8220;Packet Rules&#8221; tab. After changing the settings from &#8220;Blocked&#8221; to &#8220;According To Application Rule&#8221;, the problem was resolved.<\/p>\n<p>I also had an issue where the XP pc did not always appear on the W7 pc network map. I resolved this issue by creating a shortcut to the XP pc on the W7 pc.<\/p>\n<p>I hope this helps someone else.<\/p>\n<p>Windows XP Home SP3<br \/>\nWindows 7 Professional SP1<br \/>\nKaspersky Internet Security 2011 (KIS 2011)<br \/>\nLinksys WRT160Nv3<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I hit this problem and found it was due to Kaspersky&#8217;s internal firewall that was blocking inbound TCP\/UDP network traffic on the lan.\u00a0This post here\u00a0had the solution &#8211; see the comment by Dr Maveras near the bottom, which details how to reconfigure the Kaspersky Firewall to allow the traffic:- I found the solution to _MY_ [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[11,41,62,104],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/salientsoft.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1828"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/salientsoft.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/salientsoft.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/salientsoft.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/salientsoft.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1828"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/salientsoft.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1828\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1829,"href":"https:\/\/salientsoft.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1828\/revisions\/1829"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/salientsoft.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1828"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/salientsoft.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1828"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/salientsoft.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1828"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
