I have a client that has XP Home on a desktop and a laptop. I just installed a wireless router so that the laptop can be used wirelessly. I gave both computers the same workgroup name, different computer names, TCP/IP set up on both, and set up file and printer sharing on both. The desktop is the only one that has a printer - purpose is to print wirelessly from the laptop as well. I enabled the router as a DHCP server, and it hands out ip addresses. Internet access works fine, but the workgroup cannot be accessed. The workgroup NAMES show up on each computer, but the shares do not show up, and the printer can not be found by doing a network install on the laptop. Do I also need to install NetBIOS on each machine? I have done this countless times on domains and have not had this problem. Am I missing something on XP Home? I thought this would be much simpler Any ideas would be appreciated.
