I'm having problems linking an XP and 98SE PC on a Belkin peer 2 peer
LAN. The details are:
The setup:
Installed Belkin FSD6001 on both PC's (XP & 98SE)
Set up a home / office LAN on the XP box; as part of this process the
system asks if I want to create a network disk - I say Yes.
Then I install the Network disk on the 98 PC.
and check the Belkin profile settings to ensure that both PCs are
running in peer to peer mode.
The results:
Both PC's tell me that they are connected to the a network with the
same name and that the signal strength is excellent.
In Windows Explorer within Network Neighbourhood both PC's display the
network as being present but only show one PC as a member of the
network; in otherwords the XP PC (called Office) shows that a PC
called office is on the network but does not show the 98 PC (called
Shop).
When I search both PCs for the other PC the results come back as
blank.
Any advice or help would be much appreciated.
