Hello All, I just got a new desktop with vista on it, and I would like to take the files form my XP Pro Laptop. The desktop is connected via ethernet cord to a router in my house. The laptop is using a wireless connection through the router. I want to take the files from my laptop to my desktop using the internet. How would I go about setting up a home network?
Hope this is the right forum. I was wondering if there was a how to guide on setting up a home network. I have a Linksys Vonage router and a Linksys Wireless access point. My desktop is wired to the router and is connected to a usb printer/fax and an external Iomega 250GB hard drive. My laptop is connected through wireless with an Intel 3945bg adapter (HP nc8430).
I'd like to be able to access my files on my desktop and external hard drive as well as printer or fax to the printer from my wireless laptop. Is this possible? How do I set this up? Right now I have Vista Ultimate on the laptop and the desktop is running XP Pro and Vista Enterprie in a dual boot. Can I setup to share the usb hard drive and printer if I'm in either Vista or XP Pro on the desktop?
