I have a home network with a NETGEAR WGR614 router.
Three desktops are connected by ethernet cable and the
laptop is connected wireless. The DSL moden goes into
the router and the computers all connect to the router.
All the computers can use the internet. The three
desktop computers will show each other when I go to My
Network Places, View Workgroup Computers; and from there
I can go to the shared folders and printers on the
individual computers. However when I try to do the same
thing with the laptop I get the error message "Mshome is
not accessible. You might not have permission to use
this network resource. Contact the administrator of this
sever to find out if you have access permissions. The
list of servers for this workgroup is not currently
available." I can however get to the shared folders by
going "tools", "map network drive" and typing in the name
of the computer and shared resource I want. I set up the
network by running the network wizard in XP and other
than picking the network type where each computer
connects to the internet directly through a hub just
accepted the defaults. Any ideas on what I can do to get
the network where it wil let the laptop "see" the other
computers?
