1. are you using a router or hub?

2. are they wireless or wired?

 

if using a hub/router make sure that your using patch cables, but if your just connecting to 2 without anything else then make sure your using a crossover cable

Yeh can only suggest the same kinda thing. If you got two computers and u don't have hub or switch or anything, so you are just connecting them to one another by one cable, then u need to make sure that cable is a crossover cable otherwise they will not see each other.

 

Same goes for if you do have a hub etc, u need to have patch or straight through cable.
