I successfullly set up my network between 3 comps: Windows XP in basement wired into Linksys router w/4 port switch (802.11b) and two others on wireless. One's 2000 and another xp home edition (basement is professional) I temporarily resolved the problem of the computers not able to find each other even in search or using the run command for the ip address. At www.homenethelp.com one person said to disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP and add protocol nwlink netbios (someting like that). To my amazement, my first attempt at networking suceeded!
Unfortuanately, the process automatically went back to the point of having only internet access on the wired computer in the basement. also, I could not see other computers on the network or use their printers; only the one in the basement could. Since I am VERY inexperienced in the field of networking (first time), is there anything that may cause this? Any more information you need i;ll try to find... Thanks to everyone.
