Please help. I have four computers on a workgroup, all wired directly into a wireless router. I need to add a fifth but there are no more cat5 ports on the router. So, the fifth connects via wireless and the four other connect with cat5, but all 5 are technically connecting through the same router.
I can get the 4 on a workgroup (mshome) no problem. The fifth wont show up. It shows it's own workgroup (same name, mshome) but it doesn't see the other computers (and they can't see it)
Please help.

Hello and welcome to PCHelpForum.

Have you run the wireless setup wizard?

Also what model router is it? It may be a setting on the router that needs to be changed.

It is a Linksys. Wireless-G router.
I haven't run the wireless setup wizard, because the computer connects to the internet just fine. I've been running the network setup wizard trying to make it connect to the same network as the other computers. They are all on the same router, it's just that the others are directly wired in.

On your wireless router - go to Advanced Wireless settings.

Make sure that AP Isolation is not switched on.

Without knowing the exact model of your wireless router it's hard to give more detailed instructions. Can you please let me know the model number in your next post, e.g. WRT54GL
