Guest asrequested Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Thanks guys. I haven't made a VLAN or subnet. I just enabled guest network. I'll look at that, tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tur0k 143 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) So I host my VLANS, DHCP, DNS, and RADIUS authentication on my PFsense firewall. Here I use VLAN 172 as my guest VLAN. I will take some images shortly of my controller to enumerate the config.

Luke 37099 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I don't think they're eliminating network browsing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jachin99 82 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 One thing I haven't seen brought up yet is that If you don't use homegroup, you can also disable it under services where there are actually two different services for homegroup.

Guest asrequested Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Disable homegroup? What would that achieve? Creating/joining a homegroup is what gave me back my browsing. I will add that I've recently reinstalled every computer on my network with the latest win 10 pro (using the updates turns out to be not such a good idea), and all computers were able to be browsed without the homegroup. But using the homegroup is recommended by Microsoft for this situation. During my research, that came up, repeatedly. And also mentioned by TurOK.

jordy 284 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 (edited) I think it is to do with M$ disabling the SMB1 protocol. I can still access my shares on 3 other Windows machines (WITHOUT using the Homegroup - I don't have one setup), but am not able to access My nVidia Shield 2017 from any Windows pc. I tried everything with no luck and eventually got this msg when trying to map the Internal Shield drive: Edited November 22, 2017 by jordy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Yeah, and until now, I have never used a homegroup, either. But everywhere I read, Microsoft is saying to create one to solve the issue that I was having. And it did solve it. As to why, specifically, I not that knowledgeable.

I used to have one setup but started to have credential issues between my Win10 and Win7 pc's so I disabled it and the problems went away.

Guest asrequested Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I still don't know exactly how it solved the issue, or even what happened that caused it. But it's working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc_G 92 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Interestingly, my Win7 desktop and win10 HTPC just took updates over the holiday. The HTPC was the big fall win10 update; the desktop just finally applied a dozen things I had put off for a while out of laziness. After everything was finished, my desktop started asking for credentials to access the shared drives on the HTPC each time I reboot the desktop. It used to remember my credentials, if I check the remember credentials box the first time I (ever) connected. The solution was to go into the Windows Credential Manager (on the desktop) and remove the existing credential for that HTPC server and put a new one in there ensuring the persistence was set to enterprise. Maybe this helps someone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to turn everything I don't need or use off on my machines because this makes troubleshooting easier, and because the computer is doing less work, it might even run a little quicker. I'm still testing my setup but I've disabled homegroup, AND SMB v1 (Which I believe is what network browsing uses to see other computers on the network). I can still share folders and stream media across my Windows 7 and 10 machines, and if something goes wrong I have fewer places to look so troubleshooting is a bit simpler. Not to mention all the vulnerabilities that come with SMB V1 are gone from all of my machines. I'll also add that Windows doesn't' need SMB to stream media across a network.

Guest asrequested Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Streaming was never an issue. That always worked. It's the browsing that stopped working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tur0k 143 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Yea, I don't know that I would recommend turning all SMB off. There are some windows features that need at least a version of SMB enabled. I personally would disable SMBv1 and force SMB V2/v3 on. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2696547/how-to-detect-enable-and-disable-smbv1-smbv2-and-smbv3-in-windows-and Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PenkethBoy 2063 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) I must be lucky then as i deleted my old version a month or so ago - 1709 stable for me how did you delete the old folder? the old folder gets deleted automatically after 10 dyas by windows anyway - IIRC Edited December 1, 2017 by PenkethBoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I reinstalled all of my machines with the latest build. Since doing that, everything is working really well. I'm not liking updating on top of an update. That was causing me some issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
