HOme netwrokI have 5 machines, all running XP Pro, on a home wireless network
Problem is the machines keep dropping off the network. If I run the wizard on a particular machine it will be accessible for a week or so, but then it just drops off and I need to run it again. What am I doing wrong. Andrew Bowie abo***@internode.on.net www.users.on.net/abowie Zboing Mouflon wrote:

Are you broadcasting or hiding your SSID? They are all connected to my wireless router in that they can access the
internet. That is not the problem Problem is that I can't see one machine from the other in my home workgroup.

Are you broadcasting or hiding your SSID? I can ping the router from all of the computers, but cannot ping any of them
from each other. Currently I do not seem to have a network at all. :-( Andrew Bowieabo***@internode.on.net www.users.on.net/abowie Show quoteHide quote "Zboing Mouflon" <abo***@internode.on.net> wrote in message news:12fhmknjgstcbbc@corp.supernews.com... > They are all connected to my wireless router in that they can access the > internet.
