Currently (using the >internal wireless nic) I can not connect to my shared drives and printer (using >genmac and xwlan 2.02). Using the PRISM driver and xwlan 2.02 with a PC card >wireless I can connect to the shared drives and printer although the message >from "net use" would seem to indicate that it did not connect. The same error message "NET2186: The service is not responding to the control function." that Mark got. If you issue a NET USE or LOGIN command and PEER is not running, then it will try to start. If it successfully starts, you may be asked to log in. Try issuing at NET VIEW command to see who else is up. Then issue NET VIEW \\servername to see what 'servername' has shared. If either or both commands fails then you may have a problem with PEER. In this case, if you know that there are shares available on 'servername', you could get to them before, and you are running NETBIOS over TCP/IP then try: 1) Stop PEER - NET STOP REQ /Y 2) Delete d:\IBMCOM\RFCCACHE.LST 3) Restart PEER - LOGON username /p:password This clears out the broadcast cache which sometimes has old info in it that in turn causes problems when trying to connect to shared resources.
