Connecting two vista laptops

Posted: 08-02-2007, 09:50 AM
Last weekend my friend and I got together hoping to connect our laptops (both
running vista home premium) for some filesharing and some lan gaming. We
tried to connect wirelessly over a temp network and by using an ethernet
cable. At one stage using the cable, the other laptop could see my laptop and
get into the shared files but not the other direction, ie my laptop could not
see his laptop.

We tried many many different things, including the wireless ad-hoc which
didnt work at all. We both had filesharing and discovery turned on etc.

Any suggestions would be a great help! Cheers
