I wonder if anyone can help.
I have been running a wireless network for about 3 years.
with 3computers win 95, win 98, win 2000 professional.
The network and wireless cards are by D-link as is the router. I have firewalls by Zone Alarm on the 200 box and 98 box.
I am replacing the 95 box - as my wife has got fed up with the speed - or lack of it.
My new machine has XP professional.
The XP machine connected to the Internet - out of the box.
I added the machine to an existing workgroup - and the new box can be seen by the other computers on the network i.e. in computers near me it shows up as MumsBox.
I thought I was doing fine, so I shared a folder but this cannot be seen by the other machines and when I click on Mumsbox on the other machines it says there is no pathway to \\MumsBox.
When I look for computers in the workgroup on the XP machine it cannot see the other computers but can see Mumsbox.
What am I doing wrong.
Cheers, Phil
