Sad networking printer

here the thing i don't know how to get my network to see all the home network items (device connected to router)

1.) computer Xp pro SP3 32bit
with its own printer
* connect thou LAN to router

2.) Computer Windows 7 perm 32bit SP1
with its own printer
connects wireless to router

3.) router; Cisco linksysem E1200 300 monitor
Security; WPA2
log-in key 250+ combo letters and numbers beside others mix in

is there a way i can set it manually or use a software to get the home network work with all of these in a home group?

as it stand all turn-on and none see each other at all, other then the router it self?
=========
network magic is a network tool to use to make this happen, but its no longer use by newer router, so that option is dead to use

For each computer you'll have to turn on network discovery. Set your network to private and turn on sharing.
After setting this, you should see everything in your network (ie. playstation, printers ,cell phones, etc ....) on your computer because they will be asking for file sharing permission.

This is what my network looks like. The network shows all the devices connected (wirelessly) to my router.

On my network map you can see my settings (dicovery on & set to sharing). The second unidentified network (public) is my cell phone (lol, I got bad reception at the time down in my basement on my cell phone).

I was reading somewhere that XP can't be accessed by windows Vista and above. Seems that the remote access connection (vista and later operating systems) isn't compatible with windows XP. Don't know if that is the problem your having or not but I thought I'd just mention it.

Thought I'd edit to add that I don't think Windows XP can network with Vista or later Operating systems (windows 7).
