Default My Network Places

I have to look at a wireless setup later today and while I do not yet have
specific details about the setup, this is the problem. When My Network
Places is opened on a PC with a wireless card, the host computer is
displayed OK. However, when any shared folder on the host PC is clicked to
highlight it, the hour glass appears for around two minutes. Once the hour
glass quits displaying, files can be transferred in a normal (fast) manner.
Likewise, when My Network Places on the host computer is used, the same
delay (problem) happens. Do you have any suggestions given the limited
info?

Please disregard. When I got down there today, I could not replicate the
problem. Perhaps the reboot cleared out the gremlin.

Sounds like Master browser issue. Master browser may take 12-minute
intervals to obtain the complete list of servers.
