I have a belkin wireless setup. win98se machine
connected to belkin router via cable. xp pro laptop
connected via wireless. win98se connected via wireless
and xp home desktop connected via wireless.

all computers connect to network to use the internet
fine - no problems.

the two 98se machines see each other on the "family"
network just fine. but the two xp machines can't see
each other nor can they see the 98 machines.

any ideas ... i've tried a lot of things ... gone to
support.microsoft.com and didn't find anything useful.
I've named the workgroup the same name on all computers.

at wits end...help!
