   Could possibly, but my son's computer is physically connected to the   
   network by Ethernet, and I can't see that either.   
      
   There are five computers on the network, and four of them can see each   
   other, but mine can't see any of the others.   
      
   I'm wondering if installing a new printer changed a setting somewhere.
