XP Network

Guest

I have a wireless home network consisting of 2 win98 pc's and one win xp

pc. They all successfully connect to the internet through a Voyager
wireless modem. From the win xp pc I can ping both of the other pc's
but can't ping the XP pc from either of the other two pc's. I have
tried pinging the XP pc from itself and can't.
Any help would be appreciated.

Check the name of the Workgroup. To see each other they must all be the
same. XP uses a different default name for the network than Win98 does. If
still having trouble, post again in
