I highly recommend closely reviewing:

I also recommend assigning fixed IP's to your local machines & connect
by IP address if you encounter problems. This will eliminate any
dns/machine name/resolve problems you may encounter. If you find that
you have no problems with connecting via a fixed IP, then you can go
hunting for name resolution problems.
