I have a printer attached to a computer hooked to a
wireless box. The IP address is 192.168.0.100. I can
access the printer from any computer that uses the
wireless (same node). However, I can not access the
printer from any computers in my WAN (different IP). I
open all the NetBIOS ports in the wireless box; I
disabled all firewalls, and still can not access the
printer. I can see the printer's share name, but get an
error when tried to connect. Interestingly, I can access
a shared folder in the computer that is hooked to the
printer (from a LAN computer). Any remedy to that?
