Wireless Network - Can't see each other

Hi,
I've just installed a BELKIN wireless router (F5D7230uk4) and a Buffalo compact flash wireless card (WLI-CF-S11G).

Everything has been setup and I can surf the internet via my broadband connection from my Windows XP machine and my IPAQ 3630.

But, I can't get either machine to see the other.

Clearly, as I can access to the internet, the two machines are connected via the router, but how do I share folders, files between the machines?

Any help would be appreciated.

Roger...

PS I have a separate problem with Windows Media Player. I can't install it after upgrading to PPC2002. Is this related?

wrong area to post this issue. Check you network settings and switch off your software firewall. XP has one built in.
 
You have to map yor network drive in the Pocket PC file explorer before the shared folders will be accessible.
When you open explorer you should see the icon for your PC.
Tap/hold on it to see the Map option.

And Boy do I have experience !
 
hi routermad,
Why do you feel that this is the "...wrong area to post this issue..."?
