Sorry for the xpositing.
I am running XP SP2 and a D-Link 524 Wireless Router and I am using
MAC filtering in an OPEN system with a Dell Inspiron 1150 PC and Wired
PC (HOST). The Dell is connected to the wireless router. The HOST
computer is connected via cable and I also have a cable modem.
I am absolutely unable to get the the HOST and Dell to see each
other. I ran through the Wizards and even used a USB drive to load
the settings and I am unable to have them see and talk to one another.
I renamed the Workgroups several times just to be sure and the names
are the same. I reverted to the default MSHOME on both computers.
I selected " Set up or Change your home or small office, Yes, use
the existing shared connection (I even tried let me choose another way
to connect).
Depending which option I choose, I also get an error message that
MSHOME is not accessable, check permissions blah, blah, blah.
I wouldn't doubt if my registry may have gotten corrupted with trying
the different methods of having the two computers see each other.
Can anyone provide me with some info or step by step links please?
