No Access to Home-Network after upgrade to Avast Internet Security

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

Hello,

first of all I wish a Happy New Year to everyone!

And now comes the problem:

I have upgraded Avast Free to Avast Internet Security (3 Lizenses) Version 2014.9.0.2011
There are three clients in the network running with Win 7 (2x 64 Bit / 1x 32 Bit)
On all clients the same programs are running (Malware Security Suite / SpyHunter / released)
On all clients the “private” seetings of Avast have been activated in the same way
There are no problems with the clients running the 64 Bit operating system
The client with the 32 Bit operating system cannnot access to the home-network

No success by deactivating the Windows firewall!
No success by new installation!

I’m at the end in the moment and I don’t know where to look for a solution.

Any kind of hints are wellcome.

Kind regards

Martin

Thanks a lot.

I’ve found the solution for my problem after I have searched for the error code.
The problem was not caused by Avast but by incorrect Windows settings in the LAN adaper

It would also make solutions easier to search if the Subject is modified with the prefix SOLVED.
