98SE cannot "see" my wireless laptop
Hi all,
I've got a wireless laptop with XP and a wired PC with 98SE. The laptop can access the PC and the internet, however the PC cannot access the laptop shared files. Any help would be appreciated... My network has the same name, computers individually named and everything works except for the PC "seeing" the laptop on the network. Thanks. |

98SE cannot "see" my wireless laptop
Does the laptop show up in the wired PC's Network Neighborhood as you
imply with, "..cannot access the laptop shared files.", or does the laptop not appear at all? If it appears but you can't access files, you may not have sharing completely set up. If it does not appear, you may have a firewall that is preventing the PC from accessing the network. Did you run the WinXP Wizard on the laptop and on the PC? hawk Jeff wrote: Hi all, I've got a wireless laptop with XP and a wired PC with 98SE.
