Hi there- I am setting up a mobile business and am being supplied with a Dell Latitude with wifi capablities. I would like to have a printer in another area (about 10 ft away) of my truck. If both pieces of hardware have wifi capabilities, do I need a router ? If later I want to add internet, I plan on a aircard- so internet is a non-issue at this point. Only one computer (the laptop) in the picture. How do I get them to play nicely and recognize each other? Not sure what my OS will be, maybe vista 64 or vista with downgrade to XP.

hi you need to set up an ad hoc network, example: hp kindly shows how http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/... ad hoc explained, actually pretty easy setup, http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/...

Thank you- I realize it is an amateur question- but I am trying to do on my own without hiring an IT person to save money...we'll see how long that lasts in this tech world!
