Hi,

I'm having difficulties trying to file share between xp and vista.

I currently trying to connect from my vista machine to my xp machine.
This is my current setup

vista laptop (wireless) ----->Router------>XP PC(wireless)

I can see the XP pc but it will not let me see the files/folders it just says the folder is unaccessible.

But if I can my settings to

vista laptop(wired) ---->router----->Xp PC(wireless)

Then everything seems to work any ideas?
