Windows XP home networking issues

Guest

I have 2 laptops, both running wirelessly, on a linksys srx router. For some
reason, one of my laptops is not about to browse the workgroup. I have it
setup on workgroup "riverview" and whenever i click on view workgroup
computers it tells me that i do not have acces, and to check with the network
administrator. I have run the networking setup wizard multiple times, and fil
& print sharing is enabled on both. On the other laptop I am able to browse
the workgroup with the greatest of ease. The big problem is that i am trying
to configure a Linksys Wireless G PrintServer, which i cannot locate in the
workgroup because of my problems on the first mentioned laptop, but use
easily on the secong.

Can someone help me? PLEASE?

Nic,

Browsing workgroups, with multiple wireless computers, is a challenge. Take a
look at "browstat status", "ipconfig /all", and "net config" from each computer,
so we can diagnose the problem. Read this article, and linked articles, and
follow instructions precisely (download browstat!):
