Friend of mine got a new router, and has a desktop, and a lappy. Both of them are getting internet connection fine, but they cant see each other on the network. I cant browse them, and i cant ping them from each other.... the 98 machiene says there is no network to browse from network neighborhood. help ¿?¿ please ?

Thanks :-D

put them both in the same workgroup, and enable filesharing on both.

When I first set up my Linksys router I had Norton Personal Firewall installed. Even with it disabled the two computers could not see each other. I had to un install it to fix that problem

ok,

brand of router is Belkin, and it is hardware
They are both in the same group, and they both are full share
the only firewall is in the router, and i tried disabling it
no other firewalls,

this is really gonna get to me 0_o
