no connection to printer or lan via wireless but ok on LAN

Asked by rslive in Wireless Network Cards & Adapters

Tags: Wireless

Hi,

Have a strange issue with a customer laptop running XP Pro.  I have setup his wireless to connect to the office access point and he can connect to the net but cannot connect to shared printers or mapped network drives.

Once he plugs in the LAN cable all is ok with network printing and network drives working correctly.

Other laptop users are fine except a user last month who had the same issue with another laptop which has since been swapped out.

As this has happened twice it could be the access point, any pointers would be appreciated.  Thanks
