I do have WEP enabled and am looking into MAC addresses as well if that will help. |

Hi Randy,
This is indeed a workgroup. I did as you say for XP, but what about the systems running 98?
I have a firewall with the base station, but windows auotmatically disables a firewall when networking saying other comnputers won't be able to share access if it is up. I am a bit confused about them not allowing a firewall, unless the base station wall is still active.
And, I am still having trouble setting up the software network on the 98 systems. |

XP - right click "My Network Places", properties, right click on the adapter/NIC, go to properties. Advanced tab. You'll see sharing there.
Once you do that, you can share folders by right clicking on them and going to sharing.
This is just a work group configuration, right? Not a domain server anywhere on the network that people login to? Just making sure. And make sure you have a firewall of some sort, any kind of router, even inexpensive linksys routers will work sufficiently for a small network. |

I finally got my office network up and running(well, the hardware). but have NO clue as to how to set up the network places/neighbor hood.
Am using Windows 98 and Xp. I have internet across all comnputers but show nothing in networks for sharing ect.. |
