  1. Ethernet and wifi device discovery


    My pc that's connected with ethernet doesn't discover devices that are connected with WIFI. I also noticed, that my PCs Ip address is completely different than the routers and a printers IP. How can I fix this??

    :)
     

  2. Network discovery between Ethernet and WiFi doesn't show

    I have a Desktop ethernet connection, aswell as a laptop connected the the same network through 5Ghz, I have other devices what use the 5ghz connection that show up on my network discovery on my laptop, but am unable to detect my wired desktop that is currently connected to the same router. Both Desktop and Laptop have file sharing and discovery enabled for this network, what am I missing? Or is ethernet unable to file share to wireless connections?

    Desktop running Win10

    Laptop Win11

    WIFI Works, Ethernet won't

    OK but why?

    NOT YELLING, JUST EMPHASIZING

    Please note, I installed the new Lynksis, it worked just fine for 3-4 days on both my MACBOOK PRO when in ethernet connect and the Dell, then the ethernet just quit working for both my MacBook Pro and Dell desktop. It did work, then just quit for no apparent reason. WIFi for iPhone, iPad, Andriod Phone, and when I set to wifi for my MacBook pro all work fine.

    Detailed history: I first noticed that on my Desktop dell that is CAT5 ethernet connected to the WIFI ROuter, that it stopped, no internet access. I began to trouble shoot, and turned off my WIFI on my MAcbook and it wouldnt work either, plugged into same router but different cat5 cable. At that time, all WIFI devices still worked. I figured that it must be the ethernet side of the WIFI router, so I replaced the router with brand new one. the Lynksys N900 listed in original thread. Ethernet and everything worked just fine for 3-4 days. But then ethernet quit, but wifi still works.

    Whatever the problem, it affects both my MacBook Pro and Dell with WIN 7. I'm guessing it is NOT a computer problem, if it is it is affecting both my Mac and Dell, separate cat 5 cables to same wifi router

    To remixedcat, I don't know for sure how to check IP settings, see above post, no damage apparent to anything.

    • wifi driver is vanish from device manager.
    • wifi laptop on/off switch light become orange means no wifi. but if i press the same button i use to see on desktop flight on and off.
