Cannot view workgroup! ???

Recommended Posts

Hey,

 

New to networking but i have just set up a network between a wired XP PC and wireless Vista notebook using a DLINK WBR2310 wireless router. Internet is fine on both and the network is set up, (they are both on the same workgroup) but here is my problem. The notebook can view shared files on the PC and print using the printer connected to the XP PC but the PC cannot view anything on the notebook. When I click 'view workgroup computers' the only response i get is a error sound. When i attempt to browse my network through "add a network place" it just becomes busy with no response. I have tried manually entering the notebook \\notebookname\public and get windows cannot find. I've also tried searching for a computer with no luck. Why can i access perfectly from the notebook (vista) and not from the PC (XP). Any suggestions would be appreciated as i have researched with no luck.
