Good day,
Troubles with our home network.
Computers:
A) New HP Desktop running Windows Media Center Edition 2005 (cable to
router)
B) Dell Laptop running Windows 2000 (wireless card to router)
C) Dell laptop running Windows XP Pro (wireless card to router)
D) HP Laptop running Windows ME (wireless card to router)
E) One other desktop will be running Windows XP Home, and has both a
wireless card and a cable jack.
I've set up a home network with the same Workgroup name "HOUSE," and
when using any of the laptops, I click on the Microsoft Windows
Network, then on "HOUSE" and I can see the other laptops including
itself, and can access shared folders.
But from Computer A, when I click on "View Workgroup Computers," I
receive the message, "House is not accessible. You might not have
permission to use this network resource... (etc.). The list of
servers for the workgroup is not currently available."
Have you any suggestions? While I wait for a reply to this, I am going
to finish setting up Computer E to see if it can access the Workgroup.
Thanks in advance,
JK
