I had wireless network setup that worked fine until.....
Had desktop and 2 laptops that used network, plus a wireless printer that was accessible to all.
Bought new HP vista desktop. And Wireless g adapter for the XP computer
The Vista is connected to the dsl router. The Xp machine can see the machine but says connect is too weak.
also the wireless printer cannot access the network.
The laptop still has access.
Suggestions Please??

Hello Jack,
Is the Windows XP machine in a different room where your wireless router is located or the same room?
I would start off trying to improve the wireless signal of your connection to see if you get better results. If you can move the machine closer to the router then I would try that. It would help to know the make and model number of the wireless router, printer, and wireless adapter.
