I have a wireless access point and a new laptop that connects to the
internet through the wap just fine but does not see the other computers on
the network.  3 computers total all running XP, two are wired to the router
along with the WAP.
I ran the network setup wizard on the laptop but it only sees the LAN card
that is not being used at this time. I am connecting to the Internet through
the integral wireless card in the laptop

Any help on this would be much appreciated. I have a feeling it's going to
be pretty simple... but maybe not.

Thanks

Peter
