Wireless network access permissions

Posted: 12-01-2003, 09:38 PM
Hi,

I am trying to set up a home wireless network between my
desktop pc and my laptop. I have successfully connected
them using a crossover cable (i.e. LAN) without any
problems, file sharing is fine.

When I set up my wireless network, the two computers
connect (it says so in the system tray icon), but when I
try to access one or the other, I get an error saying I
do not have permission to access this network resource.

Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi David,

Could you please describe your wireless network setup?

Ok,

I have laptop with built in wireless network adapter, I'm
not sure which brand, my desktop pc has a RealTek PCI
NIC. I have set up a network with the same SSID on both
machines, without using WEP and network authentication
(for now). I have shared folders with 'everyone', so I
should at least be able to read the files. What else do
you need to know?

Thanks
