BE65 and Net View errors on Windows LAN.
I've had this problem on all F/W releases.
Had an AX55 in use before and NET VIEW from a Windows Command Prompt would show me the 3 'devices' on the home LAN, Wife's PC running W10 Pro, my PC running W11 Home, and the attached USB drive on the Router.
There was an update on the AX55 and it lost the ability to see the USB drive, so I switched to the BE65. At the time, this was not able to see the LAN, NET VIEW returned and error of 53, PATH NOT FOUND.
I checked ALL the suggestion on the Web, and I had all those properly set.
If I used the NET VIEW \\share_name or the \\IP_Address I could see all the shares on that PC/Router.
Since I was using a WiFi 7 router, I put an Intel BE200 M.2 adapter in my PC... and knowing full well that Windows 11 at that time didn't support Wifi 7, but it basically worked for me, in terms of wireless speed.
However, recently I upgrade to W11 24H2 which has the Wifi 7 support. MLO is now handled correctly.
But still, NEW VIEW fails, and it is different on each PC, mine and my wife's.
What I get from Net View:
====================
C:\>net view
System error 6118 has occurred.
The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available
====================
From my wife's Win 10 Pro PC:
Prior to me upgrading to the lastest Win11 release, I got the same error as she does.
Still, the Share_name works fine now, before I upgraded I could not see MY PC, now I can?

Both of us have NO problem connecting to the USB share on the router:

Her PC can write to mine, but I can't to her? I get a Permissions error? I have my UserID and P/W on her PC and her's on mine....
ALL this worked fine on the AX55... I hit the problem with the Initial V2 f/w, and DELETED all share information, userID's, Wifi connections, SSID's saved, etc. Even cleared the cache and reset TCP/IP.
Does anyone ELSE with Windows and an BE65 have NET VIEW working in a COMMAND PROMPT or POWERSHELL?
