Hello,
I have a home network with 2 machines running Windows XP Home. The first
machine has a dialup modem for the internet, and is wired. It is connected
into a US Robotics wireless turbo router(8054). The laptop has both wired and
wireless access. When the laptop is wired in to the router, it can access the
internet connection, see the printer attached to the main machine and access
the shared directories just fine. When I use the wireless connection,
Internet access is fine, but I cannot get to the printer or to the shared
directories. Any help would be VERY appreciated.

workgroup.
