I just got Vista Home installed on my laptop, and now I cannot connect to my printer on my XP system. I have updated XP system with the network update, still not luck, disabled firewalls on both PC's same thing, I can see the entire network in "network map" (My laptop, router, wireless XP computer, "switch", and then both wired XP systems, and "Internet") but nothing other than my laptop, and "Residential Gateway Device" show up under "Network" (I think here lies my problem, just don't know what to do) The router is a Linksys WRT54GLIf I type \\computername it will connect to the XP system with no problems, and vice versa. (can access everything)I have enable netBIOS over TCP/IP, they are in the same workgroup (WORKGROUP)Sharing in enabled, tried private, and public for network. Network discovery is on, public folder sharing, and file sharing are enabled.Just a note as well, I installed the vista driver for the printer on the vista system, and it gives an option to connect to a network printer, I chose that, and pointed it to the XP system\printer and it detects it, and installs, but when I go to print, it says "no communication with the printer"
