Cable -> Modem/Wireless Router (Rogers) -> Computer A
........................................-> Computer B
I could easily access files and printer from A to B and from B to A.
Recently, I added another router to the set up to get better reception around the house/backyard:
Cable -> Modem/Wireless Router (Rogers) -> Wireless Router (D-Link) -> Computer A
........................................-> Computer B
After I did that, the connection between the computers is gone. When I go into "workgroup computers", I only see the computer from which I am viewing it. I tried fiddling about with it, but nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated
