Wireless Connectivity Problem

I have a Linksys WRT54GX2 wirless router with one wired computer (with
network printers) and one wireless laptop. If I wire the laptop, I can
file/printer share and access the internet on both computers. When I go
wireless with the laptop I can access the Internet but I cannot access the
other computer or printers.

I get error says "\\computer name is not accessible. You might not have
permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this
server to find out if you have acess permissions. The network path was not
found."

Both computers running Win XP SP2. All works fine when wired but not wirless.
Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Hi
You have a Sharing problem (I.e. it has nothing to do with wire or wireless
issues).
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network
settings,http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html
As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is
allowed to be shared.
Vista File and Printer Sharing-

Basic XP -

Advanced XP - http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;304040
Printer Sharing XP -
