i have a wireless lan setup, where two computers are wired tothe rotuer and one laptop is on the wifi lan, they are all connected to a dlink 624 router, the only problem is the two computers cant access folders from the laptop and the other way around, the two computers can access each others shared folders....i want the laptop to be able to view the folders which are shared from the desktops...how do i fix this?
