I have two computers (both Win2K). One is a desktop, the other a laptop. I have file/printer sharing configured with Netbeui, and when the laptop is in its docking station (wired connection to the LAN), both computers can see all of the shares just fine. However, when I'm using the laptop in wireless mode, the cannot see each other. I have seen a few references to problems with Linksys routers and Netbeui while searching around the internet, but cannot find the specifics of the problems. Does anyone have this configuration working? I cannot think of anything else to try other than switching protocols, etc. I'd prefer not to do that.
