Hi everyone,
I just joined this forum and I am hoping someone can help me out here.
Here is my setup. I have a desktop computer connected to the net with a DSL modem and then I have a Linksys broadband wireless router and a laptop that is wifi cappable.
My desktop computer is running WinXP Pro and the laptop has WinXP Home.
I get connected to the net fine from both the desktop and wifi laptop. But now I am trying to network file and printer sharing and I am not have any luck.
I went through the network setup wizard on both computers and set up a network. But I can't see the shared files on the computers.
I see that there is a wireless network setup wizard but one the the steps is to make an encryption key but I don't want to do that. I don't care who access my network as long as I can control what drives, files, folders, and printers are bing shared.
Hope someone can help me.
