Hello All
I am trying to network 2 computers (Desktop) and (Laptop) I have a Wireless Router. (Desktop) is cabled to router, (Laptop) is wireless to router.
I want to be able to connect the two to share files between the 2 computers. Whenever I create a home or office network on (Laptop) It will never compete the setup.

Its quite simple actually. On any folder you wish to share on either computer, right click on it, click Sharing and Security, and then click Share this folder on the network.
To actually gain access to the folder, go to any folder or just My Computer, click Tools, then Map Network Drive. From there you can select the computer and share folder.
