lHi,
I have a desktop pc with a netgear dg384 adsl firewall router connected to
it through my LAN port,I am runing aol platinum and XP SP1,My laptop is
already wireless enabled with SP2 and XP, everything was running fine e.g
sharing internet connection and files to and from each machine,but now my
laptop will not connect to the internet through my desktop and does not
recognise my desktop in netwok connections and vice versa, I recently
installed a spyware program and scanned my desktop for spyware, once all
syware was removed it was then when I think I lost my connection,I recently
updated my firmware to version 1.05, but my laptop recognises my home network
in available wireless connections,each desktop and laptop are running on the
same workgroup bot don't recognise each otherin workgroup computers,what have
I done wrong!!!
Any tips would be much appreciated

Hi, many thanks for your help, unfortunately it did not work, its very
frustrating as all my settings are correct there should be no reason at all
why my laptop is unable to connect, do you think I should un-install my
router and start all over again or do you think I shoudn't need to take such
drastic action,
regards, Damian

Try a System Restore first (to a time when it worked)...
