Adding to existing network
Hello the I have this home network - desktop connected to router and a
laptop running off a wireless pcmcia card. Laptop can browse shared folders on desktop. Now I have another laptop with built-in wireless that works off the same router just fine (I'm connected aren't I?) What I can't seem to do is add the new laptop so that it can also browse the desktop's folders and any shared ones on the other laptop. When I run the wizzard I don't seem to find an option that really applies to me. Any ideas please? thanks in advance brian |
