Thx Peter. :) Network discovery is on.
Judging by google-land this isn't a new or an infrequent problem. None
of the fixes out there that I have found seem to help. Boy I wish all
the servers out there were Linux ones.
Could there be a difference in the router between the way it handles
requests of wired and wireless clients?
