I have two raspberry pis. A model B+ and a new series 2. I have a home network on a windows 8 machine I have 3 external drives attached to the Pi, and with the B+ it works fine, I can transfer movies from upstairs to any of my drives downstairs, but my problem is that when I connect the pi2 I can't see the pi downstairs from the windows upstairs. The crazy thing to me is they are both set up exactly the same, except the MAC address of course.

3If both Pi's share the same IP, that cannot work.– user236012Apr 1, 2015 at 16:41

3You haven't described your home network. Is it wired or wireless? What do you mean by "see"? Can you ping the RPi addresses from the Windows machine?– bobstroMay 29, 2015 at 15:52

As user236012 commented, you cannot have the same IP address for two different devices. This setup would only work if you only had one Raspberry Pi connected to the network at a time.
