On my home network I have a windows 2000 machine, with printer, and a xp machine that were connected directly. Recently I purchased a Belkin wireless G router. The above mentioned machines cable into the router and work same as before. My son has a WII that conects no problem to internet wireless through the router. Recently he bought a HP wireless laptop with Microsoft Vista. We got it to connect to the internet through the router but it cant find the other computers or printer on the network. I can ping the other machines from this laptop and get a response but cant map to them or find the printer on the network.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
