I have 2 HP Laptops, old and new, on my home ethernet network, both are discoverable and visible on the network drive of both computers. The files and folders of the older computer are visible/accessible on both the new and old computer from the network drive. The files and folders of the new computer are not visible/accessible on either the new or old computer from the network drive. I need to be able to see files and folders on the new computer from the network drive. What switch will fix this problem?
