Error 0x80070035 after changing motherboard

[Patrese]

I've lost most of my Saturday trying to figure out what happened here.

I had a perfectly working home network composed by a desktop (Windows 7 Professional x64) and a notebook (Windows 7 Home Premium x64) connected by the TP-LINK TL-WR941ND router. After I bought a new motherboard, something went wrong. It was a Abit IP35 before (Realtek NIC), and now it is a Asus P5Q (Atheros NIC). I made a clean install to change the motherboards using the latest drivers, and updated the router firmware and reconfigured it just in case, but the problem persists.

- The desktop enters the internet and the shared folders of the notebook, no problem at all.
- The notebook enters the internet normally, but gets an error 0x80070035 when I try to enter any of the desktop's folders, including the ones on the domestic group.
- When I try to reach the desktop through its IP on the start menu, I get an error...
- Pinging the IPs gives no errors, though.

I've read a bunch of threads about this sort of error, but none of those actually helped. Here's my ipconfig /all log:

I may be wrong here, but an IP address of 192.169 would be a public IP address? IE, not the private 192.168 non-Internet routable address. Was this always your config?

Also, try disabling/checking firewall rules.

Yep, the whois info says it's owned by PSG.com.

Whoa, that's scary. Here's the deal: my ISP routes its modem configuration to the same address (192.168.1.1), so the only way my ISP would play along with my router was changing the router config to 192.169.1.1. Since I'm clueless about network stuff, looks like I made a real bad mistake when I changed the address to 169 and will correct it NOW. Thanks guys.

@topic: I've already disabled the firewall on both computers and the problem persists... 🙁 Any other ideas?

File Sharing is enabled on the desktop? And it's set for a "Work" or "Private" (I can't remember which is used in Win7, but the result is the same) network?

Home Network

Work Network

Public Network.

Work Network is the best choice (even if you are a gamer and never works :sneaky🙂.

Yeah, should have changed it to 192.168.2.1.

 

[ch33zw1z]

Yeah, should have changed it to 192.168.2.1.

OP, do it like VL says. Make that 3rd number something like 2, 3, or 69 🙂

Thanks for all the responses. Nothing new to report, unfortunately. Here's the day recap:

- IP address changed to 192.168.2.100 Not public anymore, big thanks to everybody who brought this to my attention. Funny thing is that with the Abit IP35 the network worked perfectly using the 192.169 IP...

- Network is configured as "Home" on both computers. There's also a Public Group set up and both the computers "see it". Only the desktop can browse the files, though: the notebook gets the error code above. 🙁 Why a "work" network is better? Don't think it will solve my issue, but it'd be good to know that.

- Pinging the IP on both the notebook and desktop shows no errors, but I can't access the desktop by typing \\192.168.2.100 on its start menu.

Question: Buying an offboard NIC with Intel or Realtek chipsets would bring me any chance of restoring my network? The reputation of the Atheros chipset of the P5Q is hardly inspiring, specially on Windows 7.

Formatting the notebbok maybe? Anything else I can to to at least try to troubleshoot this annoying issue?

Will you post the relevant portions of ipconfig for both the desktop and the notebook? If all the IP addresses look good then I would recommend checking out this post by JackMDS.

For some bizarre reason I could not identify, there were 271 Microsoft "6to4" adapter devices installed on my notebook. Seems to be a rather normal thing on Windows Vista/7 using Google search as a parameter. Shame on you, MS.

Using "devcon remove *6to4mp" I uninstalled them all and bingo, it worked again. Thanks a lot for all the responses!
