Two computers in the house and one cable modem. The cable company told us it
would be cheaper to buy a wireless router than get two internet accounts from
them. Bought a Linksys wireless broadband router and a PCI adapter card.
Internet connection bewteen the computers was fine until we tried to set up a
network so the computers could share a printer. Ran Windows XP network
wizard, and now the client computer has no internet connection. The network
looks like it's set up on the host computer, but it doesn't list the client
computer. The client computer gets an error message when I try to look at the
network, it says I may not have access and I should speak to the server's
administrator (isn't that me?). How do I fix this?
