File Sharing Problem

[dedotch]

I have 8 computers using file shareing. 3 are connected directly to a wireless router which is connected to DSL. I use a workgroup other than MSHOME. There are three other computers that are now wireless. This is where I am having a problem. Two of them were orig. connected with lan cable and still are, the newest one is wireless. They all connect to the workgroup except the orig. wireless which is still lan. All three are wireless now. When I un plug the cable the The one that was only lan connects so it does not need the lan. But the other one won't find the pther computers. I even pluged the lan cable in my new one in this group of three it won't assign a new ip address it says low or no connectivity. As for as I can tell they are all set up the same. These three are all XP. Can I undo all file sharing and start over? I have added and changed so many settings could be my problem. Can I have more than one work group?

I have 3 areas 1-2-3 1-2 1-2-3 All connect to the internet no problem. Segestions? Would like them to all still connect to each other. But maybe 3 workgroups.

Thanks for input I know this is a nightmare.
