Network access

by wlcrouch . Updated 17 years, 3 months ago

I’m sure this has been asked and answered many times before but recently our LAN refuses to recognize my computer (cannot share files or printers). I can connect to any other computer/printer on our network and no problems with accessing the internet. No other computers on our network can connect to me and they receive the message: “Error message when you try to access a Windows XP-based network computer You might not have permission to use this network resource.”
We are all on XP SP3, firewalled with exceptions for file sharing and other items, static IP’s on all computers.
I’m sure it’s something simple. It just showed up after we had our cable modem replaced and a new router installed. We’re hard wired on our LAN. Any help would be greatly appreciated by me and my boss!
