Network: Four desktop PCs (1 XP Pro; 3 Windows 2K Pro SP4) connected through a hardwired cat5 network running through a common Linksys WRT54G router. All PCs are in same workgroup and can "see" all of the others in "Computers Near Me"
Trouble Symptoms: XP has full access to 2K #1, #2 and #3; 2K #2 has full access to XP and 2K #1 and #3; 2K#1 has access to XP and 2K #2, but cannot access 2K#3 (error message \\#3 is not accessible The network path was not found); 2K#3 has access to XP and 2K#2, but 2k#3 cannot acess 2K#1 (error message \\#1 is not accessible The network path was not found). This seems really peculair since all PCs see each other, two can access everything, but the other two while able to access all other resources cannot access each other.
Oh yes, all four PCs could see and access all of the others without any trouble until very recently. I don't believe I've made any major changes to the network and have no idea what the cause is.
Help me, help me: Any and all suggestions on the cause and configuration changes will be most welcome, but especially those that fix the problem.
Many thanks to all.

If it worked until recently, either an update or some software installation mucked things up. First, check the router to see if there are any changes to the security settings. Next, I'd suggest running Network Setup Wizard on all four computers to try and reset the name of the workgroup and networking settings.

Thanks to the Jedi Master.
It took a little of everything. I reset the router to factory defaults and then reconfigured the settings. That shifted the problem from W2k#3 to XP. Then I ran the networking wizard, released and renewed the IPs, and rebooted. Voila, full routing table and complete network access.
