I have a pretty standard home wireless network: desktop, with printer
and wireless router attached, and a notebook. I print from that
computer over the network, using printer/file sharing.
I've suddenly lost the ability to print from the notebook. Upon
researching the problem, I can't even find the desktop on the network.
In Windows Explorer, SharedDocs on the desktop shows up under My Network
Places. However, when I click on it, I don't get the directory, like I
used to. I get a prompt for user name and password, and I have no idea
what they are.
I doublechecked the desktop's name, and then searched for the computer
from the notebook. It didn't find anything.
Any ideas where I can turn?
