    Hello!!

    Yesterday I bought a new Router Linksys wrt54gc. I was changing my old d-link g604T. The new router is only router making neccesary the use of one adsl modem. I put the internet cable between the modem and the router and it worked at the moment.

    So my problem now is that I can't see the other computers connected to my router linksys. The two options, I mean with wifi or ethernet. I try to see each other in My net Sites ( in spanis Mis sitios de Red) or the shared printers, but I couldn't. I try to touch something in the router but I couldn't. There is some problem with the SO (windows XP sp2 in all of the computers) or I have to enable something in the router?

    The printer is connected to a pc via usb and this pc is connected to the router linksys in the port 1.

    Thanks!!

    It's always helped to reset the network connections starting with the modem then the router etc. when I've added new networking hardware(ie router/modem). It allows for the DHCP to reassign IP addressess to the hardware so they can all "talk" to each other.

    Ok, I'll try this afternoon to do something in order to see each other in the network.
    Because if I have some of them in ethernet (2 pc) and the others in wireless (2 laptops)I can see them? YES?
