I have a Netgear 802.11b wireless router on my WIN2000 system and a Netgear MA101 wireless USB adapter on my WINXP system. It works perfect for sharing the internet. I would like to share files across each but can not. I have both computers set on the same workgroup and have designated each harddrive as "shared." Can you share files across this setup? And if so, any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong? Please email me the responses to daveshear@aol.com. Thanks in advance. David Shear
