    All machines on the same sub-net? Can you ping both ways? What happens if you use your Server IP address instead on "servername"? Have you re-booted your router recently?

    try typing the IP address/connect

    example:

    192.168.1.253/connect

    try typing the IP address/connect

    example:

    192.168.1.253/connect


    Isn't that what I just suggested?

    hi peeps

                  i have tried the following which i belive was your suggestions and non of them have worked.

    1. rebooted router

    2. ping server to client- pings fine

    3. ping client to server - pings fine

    i have also done a pathping and its seeing the home server. So what else could i look for in trying to resolve this.

    Yes it is, sorry I didn't read your full reply.. I get caught up in numbers and url's didn't notice "servername" vs IP address.. ;)

    It shouldn't matter but which browser are you using - try IE.
