Printers are wired to host Windows 98 desktop which is wired to Netgear wireless router; Vista laptop finds router (and both computers successfully use the router for internet access), but can't "see" the Windows 98 desktop or the printers wired to it. I have enabled file sharing on the Windows 98 desktop, added the router's IP address as trusted in my Norton Symantec firewall (and have also tried it with firewall disabled).

run the network setup wizard on the vista disc on the win 98 machine...that should let your windows98 machine see the vista machine....then your printers should also work

98 really wasn't designed for any of that. Get XP.

TIP: You don't need Norton either, you have a router.
