Hello,
I've got problems to use my sitecom LPT printsever (&switch) in
combination with my Wireless Lan (SMC ADSL Barricade router).
I've got to wired desktopmachines connected to the sitecom
switch/printserver. This switch/server is connected to the SMC
Barricade ADSL-router. I also have on wireless laptop.

The problem:
When I use the desktops it is possible to ping the printserver and to
access the printserver via my browser.
This is not possible with my laptop. When I try to ping the server I
don't get any response.

I tried:
- To disable all firewalls--> did't solve the problem

Can you help me?

Matt

Are the laptop, desktops and printserver all in the same IP subnet, eg
192.168.123.x ?

Is the barricade blocking traffic from the wireless to the wired lan?

Is there anything in the logs on the barricade?

Have you checked that the workgroup names are the same?
