We have a wireless network setup which requires a "key" for access. There are five
computers and NO server. One of the computers is hard-wired to the network, the others
utilize wireless access. All systems are running windows XP SP2. Only two systems
are able to see each other in the Workgroup, yet only one system is able to view
shared files out of the two. The remaining systems cannot access the Workgroup.
An error message occurrs: "Workgroup" is not accessible. You might not have permission
to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out
if you have access permissions. The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently
available...
All stations have File and Printer Sharing enabled.
All network settings are DHCP enabled.
While we're not able to see each other, we're able to access the internet.
Any help or suggestions would greatly be appreciated.
Thank you.

How is your wireless accomplished? Router or AP? It by Router, are you using othe
hard wired computer to bridge the wireless to the wired LAN?
