Default Can't access the network after making the network with the wizard

this is the message across the top My Network Places
Red X Office is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this
network resource . Contact the administrator of this server to find out if
you have access permissions. This list of servers for this workgroup is not
currently available. Not sure if this is an upper or lower case problem as I
put the name in upper case but it shows as lower case name on the network.
Also is there a firewall issue here as well?? Appreciate anyones help.

Thanks

One of the most common causes of this problem would be a misconfigured or
overlooked personal firewall, but there are other possibilities too. IPV6,
apparently added by the wizard, is a problem frequently reported here.
