Workgroup configuration mistake.

Hello,

I'm using the MN-500 with a desktop running XP Pro. Also
a Dell laptop with XP Pro and a built in wireless. After
setting up the router I tried to access the network with
the laptop, got great signal strength but couldn't get
online. I assigned the laptop to a new workgroup with
the desktop.

Ooops.

The next paragraph in the manual says "Do not assign a
computer to a workgroup if the computer is already a
member of a domain and you intend to reconnect to the
domain later." It is and I do.

I jumped the gun on that one and now can't even logon to
the laptop. Anybody have any workarounds to undo my
stupid mistake?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Talk to the people in your IT department at work. Please remember never
to do that again.
