Comment:

1 new Dell w/ XP (connected directly to linksys wireless
router)
1 PC w/ win98SE on it (wireless connection)
Both are on WORKGROUP, but I cannot see either machine
from the other. Is this a setting I need to change from the
router?

find the local area adapter (or wireless adapter) in network settings, right click it, do you have file and printer sharing installed? If not, try adding it. Also, are both PCs configured for DHCP and getting IP address from the router?
