Wireless Network...small config problem

Hi Just set up a wireless networkusing the following kit

Base PC (PIII running XP) > Belkin Wireless ADSL/Router > Dell Inspiron wireless enabled L-Top (Runnin XP)

All seems ok..both PC and L-Top can see the Router

I can now access the internet remotely from the laptop using ICS via the base PC

I can see the shared folder of the laptop from the pc..and can pass or retrieve docs to and from the laptop. However if I try to access the PC's shared area from my laptop..it says I dont have any permission.

Any Ideas
 
Looks like you've set up a hardware firewall between your desktop and laptop. The standard and recommended configuration would be to have the router connect to the internet service, turn off ICS on the desktop, and have it connect to the router instead of the internet service directly.
