Windows Forum / Windows XP / Networking and Web / May 2008Home Network Problem-One wired computer & one wireless computer
I have one computer running Windows XP Pro that is directly connected to a Linksys wireless router and another computer that is running Windows XP Home and connects using the wireless function. I first set up the XP Pro computer using the Network setup wizard, then the computer that connects wirelessly. Using the Windows XP Pro computer and going to the workgroup I set up, I can see both computers. However, I am unable to add or see the printer that is connected the Windows XP Home computer. Using the Windows XP Home computer, I don't see the Windows XP Pro computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your help. I finally figured it out. I removed my Zone Alarm firewall on each computer and am using Windows firewall. However, I would like to be able to use Zone Alarm. > I have one computer running Windows XP Pro that is directly connected > to a Linksys wireless router and another computer that is running [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Any help would be greatly appreciated. Phil, I use a product called, Network magic. I am running XP Home on both machines, my set up is the same as yours A desktop & a notebook both setup on a linksys wireless network. I had to install the printers on each machine then set up the share feature before I could remotely print. It works fine. Hope it works for you.
