Laptop Win XL and PC with Win 98se Wireless Connection

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless (More info?)

Help-trying to set up wireless network with Win98sePC
&WinXL laptop. All Netgear hardware installed, however
not able to see each other in Network Neighborhood.Can
print from laptop, but can't do anything else. Hav e tried
to follow instruction, but there obviously is something
not working for me. I am somewhat of a novice and so much
of the info pertaining to this subject is confusing to
me. Any simplified info recommended for tackling this
problem which I suspect is more with the PC.

It would seem that if I can print from the laptop to the
Printer attached to the PC, that I am connected, but why
do the two computers not show up in each other's
neighborhood? The following error msg appears when I
attempt to contact the PC:
" \\oem-pc\personal is not accessible. You might not
have permission to use the network resources. Contact
administrator of this server to find out if you have
permission.
The network path was not found. "

Questions: Who/what is permission, administrator, server,
network resources??????
Thanks for any help or ideas.
