A few weeks ago, I set up a home network using a Linksys BEFW11S4
Router. My desktop(call it A) is directly connected to the router.
I have a second desktop (call it B) connected via a Wireless PCI card
and a laptop directly connected. The laptop is for work and has a
different group name than the other two computers and can't be seen by
either computer A or computer B, which is expected..
Until recently, I could access computer B from computer A. Now I
can't. They both belong to group MSHOME. Computer B has no problem
sharing the internet connection, but if I ping computer A from it, I
get no response. WEP is enabled and I checked the encryption and it
looks correct on both ends. Boith are enabled, 64-bit, with the same
encryption key. If I check the DHCP clients table, computer A shows up
and so does the laptop, but not computer B. Also, I cannot ping
computer B from computer A.
I can't think what else to check. I can't think of what I could have
done to change the network configuration. I'm at wits end. What am I
missing?
