Limited or no connectivity

My home network is giving me problems. I have XP Pro on the host computer and XP Home and 2000 on the other two computers. The network connection tells me it I have "Limited or No Connectivity". I think I have looked everywhere to correct this but obviously I haven't because it is still there.

Does anyone have any suggestions ???

 

In General, you can debug the Network Settings of a computer by following these steps.

Step One. Check the Network parameters in the Computer's Device Manager. Make sure that the Network Card drivers are installed correctly; i.e. there is No IRQ conflict, and No Ghost installation. http://www.ezlan.net/faq#ghost

Step Two. Verify Basic network setting in the OS: http://www.ezlan.net/Installing#verify If the above two Steps indicates that every thing looks good but functionally it does not work.

Step Three. Check (and repair if necessary) the Socket Layers, Winsock, and or refresh the TCP/IP Stack. http://www.ezlan.net/clean#refreshnet
