Hi all, This has been doing my head in for over a week now so its time i sought advice from people that know.

I have a pc (A) with usb modem attached and pci wifi card, wireless router ( and laptop (C) with wifi card.
Both A and C can connect to ( but cannot connect to each other.

I've had A and B connected via lan cable and C connected to it wirelessly with ICS and file sharing working fine but no matter what i try i cannot get A to see C or C to see A

Both A and C see exactly the same networks in my neighbourhood at the same time but not each other.

I've tried changing SSID's, changing workgroup name, different encryption methods, i have even tried different wifi card in laptop and different card in pc but nothing works so i'm guessing its a software fault.

I expect it to be something really stupid thats stopping it from working so if anybody has an idea what i can do please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Chris


Oh - both A and C have xp pro with sp2 and recently upgraded to sp3 if that matters
