workgroup

I have an existing Windows 2000 Workgroup running on a
wireless network, connecting to Broadband via ADSL with a
DLink modem. I have 4 machines working fine, but I'm just
trying to add a laptop to the network and the wirless link
works fine, but I can't get the laptop to see/be seen by
the workgroup.
I've tried various fixes (adjusting properties,
reinstalling TCP/IP etc etc) but no luck so far.
Any thoughts?

You should post your issues to a regular networking newsgroup, or perhaps
check the DLink support information. This newsgroup supports Microsoft's
Broadband Networking hardware and software only, not general networking
problems.

Did you enable File Sharing on the notebook?
