Setting Up Work Group

[Guest]

I am running DSL with a linksys WRT54G setup as a gateway. I am sharing
three computers via wireless and a fourth connected to the router via cable
(ethernet). I am trying to set up a work group, All three wireless computers
can see/talk to each other, but the wired computer cannot see/talk to and of
the wireless computers. They can all browse the internet, etc. The set-up
wizard works, because I can see the cable computer in its work group, yes I
am using the same workgroup name. Please help me with this becase the cabled
computer has the printer that I need to share. All computers are using
windows xp pro.
Thx

This sounds like an improperly configured firewall on the wired
computer. You might also have Simple Sharing disabled on the cabled
machine while it is enabled on the other computers. See this link:
