Need help to share files and printer through Network
Hello. I have networked two home computers together and am now having a problem with the sharing of the printer and files. On the first computer (main), I am running Windows XP with a wireless-B Broadband Router and on the secondary computer, I am running Windows 98SE with a wireless USB adapter. The printer is connected to the main computer.
I am able to get online with both computers and print from the main computer, however, I am unable to print or access shared files from the secondary computer. The printer is showing in the control panel but when I try to print, I get the following pop-up error message, "Cannot connect to this network printer. Make sure that your network is working properly and that the network you share exists."
As for the files, on the XP machine, they say that they are shared, however, on the 98SE machine under "shared documents" there is nothing.
I am new to this networking thing and am really lost so any help and/or suggestion anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated.
