Hi I have a Home network with 3 PC's and 2 laptops connected. 1 Laptop via
wireless. All were working great until I installed a new Router (Thompson
585). This however, may just be a coincidence. Since installation of the new
router "Remote Connection" or access to "Shared Areas" is no longer possible
to PC B from any of the other computers - I have re-checked all the normal
setting and I am completely baffled. I even created a new workgroup, which
can be seen when "mapping" but shows no "shared Areas' I also Run McAfee -
it is listed on the network (as a friend) is connecting and it can connect to
all of the other computers on the network.

What am I missing??? any help would be really appreciated

Update I have renamed the Computer and set-up a new workgroup - result is
the same None of the computers can contact B - but B can contact all others.
