static ip address + home networking

by jessiah . Updated 18 years, 6 months ago

Good day!
We have three windows xp pro systems in the house networked via a linksys wireless router. two of the computer are using wireless adapters and one is using an onboard nic.
The internet is being shared fine and the file and printer sharing was working fine until I changed my computer (a wireless connection) to a static ip. I did this b/c I am trying to set up a server for Symantec Corporate 10.
The internet still seems to work fine, but when i try to view other computers on the network (in the workgroup called MSHOME) i recieve the following error:
Mshome is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administartor of the server to find out if you have access permissions.
The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently avaliable.
I am logged on with an admin account and all the computers are turned on.
Suggestions?
