    I have a Linksys Wireless Router with 2 pcs connected to it. One desk top wireless and the notebook by wire.
    All PC's can access the internet. However, the desk top with the router connected to it cannot access the notebook although the notebook icon appears on its menu.
    The desk top has Windows XP but the notebook just has the Windows 98 SE.
    How can I correct this problem?
    Thanks for any help offered.

    Maybe nothing on the 98 system is configured for sharing.
