You don't, by any chance, have the Windows Firewall running as well. This
would be easy to do and not know it was. This could cause your problem.

Subject: need help w/ lan setup
I just purchased a laptop, and I want it to share files with my desktop.
Both connect fine to the internet. The Desktop (dt) is hardwired to linksys
wrt54gs router. The laptop (lt) is wireless and connects through router to
internet fine. I set up both computers on the same workgroup, I named each,
I indicated which files & directories should be shared from both.
Both are running AVG w/ firewall v 7.5.427. I have tried turning off both
firewalls but they still are not seen. Do I need to specifically tell AVG
which computers to pass through? Both AVG profiles are set to standalone .
Is there someplace else that I need to set permissions to get these to see
each other?
Thanks
PS
both computers are HP (dt is compaq lt pavilion ).
I have tried talking to Linksys and they were very helpful to set up
internet connection but cannot help with Lan setup.
