    Unable to browse network

    I am using Netbeui for a small network in my home. The problem is my
    laptop will see both my desktop and laptop when you click on network
    neighborhood. If you click on network neighborhood on my desktop it does
    not see the laptop. I am also using a modem share program throught the
    network and it works fine. All cables are fine and cards config properly
    also the hub is config.properly.
    Any help will greatly be appreciated. Installed and reinstalled all
    network settings.

    Make sure your netbeui is set to default protocol on your desktop, and not the ip for your modem.

    start there, see what that does.

    Try this.

    Double click the network icon in control panel on your desktop computer.
    Highlight file and printer sharing for microsoft networks then click the proprties button.
    Highlight Browse Master then choose enable in the Value drop down list.
    Click ok, exit and restart your computer.
    Hope that works. Good luck.

    Its working
    I searched the net and found a solution
    I went into the registry
    HKEY_LOCAL__MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\cur rent version\network\real mode net
    Deleted Autologon=0
    Rebooted
    I waited a few moments and the computer appeared in network neighborhood

    Everyone thank you for your help

    Sounds like you didn't have "logon and restore network connections" enabled under the properties for your network client.
    Probably would have had the same effect if you had changed to Autologon=1...?
