New on the forums, so hello to all!
Anyhow, I've been having a reoccuring problem with networking my XP computer with the others. Let me give an idea of my current setup.
--Cable Modem--
----Belkin 54G wireless---
------XP Media Center P4, connected directly to router via Cat5
.........4 Win2k systems on wireless G PCI
The problem is that all the wireless Win2k will communicate with each other through windows, whereas the XP computer is not recognized. The only way I have been able to send/receive with the XP computer is through DOS via a net file server. The XP system has internet access and is in the same workgroup as the others, but does not show up when searched for or linked on the Win2K computers. I cannot access the Win2K systems from the XP computer either.
Hope this is easy to follow, since I am not in the least a network expert.
Thanks in advance!
