(all patches EXCEPT

>2) Using a D-Link 624 router with desktop connected via
wire (Ethernet?) and
>laptop connected via wireless card

>3) I've enable sharing for the computer connected to
desktop, and all
>folders I want to share on both computers

>4) Desktop "sees" the laptop, but if I click on any of
the folders or on the
>laptop icon (in View Workgroup Computers) it says
something about not having
>rights or permission or something (which didn't happen
when I first set the
>network up)

>5) Laptop doesn't see desktop at all
>
>6) Printer cannot be found when running add printer
wizard.

>I'm wondering if I've inadvertently set up more than one
network? Please
>help! I'm getting very frustrated! Thanks.
