i installed smb browse app.
my pc is recognized as

what could b the problem?
 
I'm assuming the "issue" was that the firewall was blocking ports needed by SMB/CIFS. In which case your solutions would be:

1) Don't use the firewall
2) Open the ports needed by SMB/CIFS (or properly configure NAT/IP sharing/etc. or whatever you were doing wrong)

How's Zurich? I love CH...
