By manual setup what do you mean? On 23/06/2009, Dennis Kioko <dmbuvi@gmail.com> wrote:
have you tried forcing a manual setup on the vista laptop so that it will have a fixed IP, rather than one issued via DCHP?

Dennis,
They are both in the same work group.While putting up the wireless access point I had to ensure that they are on the same work group.

Just in case you are using workgroups, are the Vista & XP machines on the same workgroup? Remember that the default work group for Vista is different from that of Xp.

I have used the printer name and still doesnt work.I removed the firewall,still doesnt kick in.Am thinking since the printer has got a network port......why dont I connect it directly to the access point?
Any ideas?

suggest you check inbound firewall settings on mini server. And try
using the printer name rather than ip address to connect.
