Tech Clinic / setting up a network with desktop + wireless laptop
« on: September 03, 2006, 05:00:53 PM »
Wanted to see if anyone could help me set up a home network for file sharing.
I have a Dell desktop that is connected via ethernet cable to a Linksys wireless router. Just purchased an HP laptop that connects to the Linksys via wireless connection.
How do I go about setting up a network between the 2 computers? I've walked through some of the steps on the desktop, but seems like if I create the disk as it says to do, it won't work on the laptop's wireless connection.
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks.
