I have a 2WIRE DSL modem/router. I've connected 2 laptops and 1 pc to the
router-all wireless. I've set up all 3 machines in a workgroup called
"2wireXXX". All 3 can connect to the internet ok thru the router. BUT, none
of the machines can see each other, thus I can't file and print share.
All 3 machines have been told to file and print share. I've gone thru the
wireless network connection wizard and the "make new connection" wizard. No
help.
1 laptop is XP home-HP, with built in wireless adapter
the other laptop is a Dell-XP pro with built in wireless adapter,
and the pc is a Dell is XP Pro with a D-link wireless adapter.
The Dell laptop can't even see itself when I pull up the workgroups. I get a
msg that says the "2wireXXX router can't be accessed.......". But it can
access the internet!
What did I do wrong? Should I have named the workgroup differently? Should
the machines be going thru the router to see each other or go ad-hoc?
Thanks for the help,
Phil
