I recently got dsl thru earthlink at home. I have
installed it on 2 computers. One computer, running
Windows XP, is connected to the internet directly to the
wireless router which is connected to the modem. The
other computer, running Windows 2000, is connected to a
wireless adapter which allows me to access the wireless
router which allows me to access the internet. I'm trying
to set up a home network, but I having a problem with the
computer that is connected to the wireless router. On the
computer with the wireless adapter, I can see the other
computer and the computer I'm using, but when I try to
access the other computer it says "Not accessible. The
network path was not found." When I try to access the
workgroup on the computer that is connected directly to
the wireless router, it says "The 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 acces permission. The list
of servers for this workgroup is not currently
available." One both computers I have tried setting up
the home network under the administrators. Any
suggestions? I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
