Hi,
it's sounds like a network connectivity issue, first of all i suggest you
exclude the local area connection from any firewall that installed on this
stations, if you not able to exclude one ethernet try to exclude the IP
range of your local lan, if you not able to do so to! disable the current
firewall and install a more functional firewall.
please make sure you have a static speed for all stations (that mean make
sure that all station sync to the switch in the same duplex & speed).
more ... please insure that the TCP/IP of the local area connection is
enabled to NETBIOS.
Cheers,.
