i have been trying in vain to get a home network set up. i am running
2 desktops both XP Pro SP2. i bought a netgear WGR614 router, and want
to setup a wired network, everything seems to go fine everytime i have
run the network set up wizard (i stopped counting at 30 times) i have
been reading on this and other NGs and have gone thru all the
suggested fixes.............none of the folders i want to share show
up in metwork places. the Name of my workgroup does show in "microsoft
windows network" but when i try to access the work group in network
places i get the dreaded "workgroup is not accessable. you might not
have permission to use this network resource. bla, bla, bla" i am
administrator on both computers, and sole user of both. when searching
for answers i D/Ld and installed Network Magic, it sees both puters,
and all shared files on both, but they are unavailable for me to use
in windows. PLEASE what am i doing wrong.
TIA
Gene
