Default Mysterious Network Gremlin

I have 4 computers (XP Home) hooked up to a WRT54. All can access the
internet see each other and share files. So could my wireless Laptop(XP
Home). I came home from a trip, lent the oldest my laptop, and the next
time I used it on the network, I connected to the internet, but could not
access the workgroup. I can ping all the wired computers from the laptop
and the wired computers can ping the laptop. I hard wired the laptop and
the results were the same. I am attaching below the results of my ipconfig
/all and nbtstat -r query. I notices that the Node type is peer-peer on
both the wireless card and the Ethernet card of the laptop. The other
computers say "unknown". I have no firewall's going, NetBIOS is selected on
all computers and the workgroup names are the same. I think that the
problem is in the NetBIOS but it's really driving me nuts! as I said, the
other 4 comps are fine and can see, ping, but not access the laptop, and the
laptop can only ping the other computers. The ipconfig below was taken
using the laptop Ethernet card, but the results are the same using the
wireless card. Any help would be appreciated.

Default Mysterious Network Gremlin

Ok, no reply yet With the laptop, I can ping the other 4 PC's by
address, but not by name! Is there any one out there that has a clue as to
my next course of action?

I have 4 computers (XP Home) hooked up to a WRT54. All can access the
internet see each other and share files. So could my wireless Laptop(XP
Home). I came home from a trip, lent the oldest my laptop, and the next
time I used it on the network, I connected to the internet, but could not
access the workgroup. I can ping all the wired computers from the laptop
and the wired computers can ping the laptop. I hard wired the laptop and
the results were the same. I am attaching below the results of my

ipconfig
/all and nbtstat -r query. I notices that the Node type is peer-peer on
both the wireless card and the Ethernet card of the laptop. The other
computers say "unknown". I have no firewall's going, NetBIOS is selected

on
all computers and the workgroup names are the same. I think that the
problem is in the NetBIOS but it's really driving me nuts! as I said, the
other 4 comps are fine and can see, ping, but not access the laptop, and

the
laptop can only ping the other computers. The ipconfig below was taken
using the laptop Ethernet card, but the results are the same using the
wireless card. Any help would be appreciated.
