I have a wifi with a Win2000 desktop ethernetted to my router and a WinXP
notebook on wireless. I recently brought up my notebook after a disk crash.
Before the crash and shortly after bringup I had good wireless access to
internet and to the files on the desktop.
Suddenly yesterday I lost access to the desktop files. While using Windows
explorer to open My Network Places then Entire Network then Microsoft
Windows Network and then my Workgroup I get this message: "MyWorkgroup is
not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network
resource." This is curious since it was working. Perhaps some windows
update caused it to stop working.
In any case I am definitely in the Workgroup. I can verify this by right
clicking My Computer and checking Properties and Computer Name.
Please help.
