Why another workstations not appear in my network places when i connect with wireless?

Question

When i connect to my network with cable, another workstations appear but when i connected with my wireless g (in laptop) then my computer and other workstations not appear but i connected. Why? I use presario X1300 / X1315AP with Windows XP SP2

My wireless router is Buffalo Air Station Turbo G Type WHR-HP-G54.

When I connected with my wireless, i can ping another wired computers, but i can not search another computers name, no result found.

Answer 1

You didn't say what router you are using. Most home use routers simply add wireless and wired users together. However, there are some routers that allow you to isolate the wireless users from the lan users, it you have one of those and the setting is to isolate then you wont see any of the wired machines. I would check the router information first.

Then try to ping one of the wired computers from your wireless connection. If that works try "search" and see if you can find one of them.

You might also try viewing local network from the my network places and see if they show up.

(Make sure the Buffalo is set to allow wireless to lan connections.. it is one that can isolate wireless).
