I have two pcs that are connected over a wireless Network. One of my pcs has
a CD-R/RW drive while the other one only has a CD-ROM drive. Can I use my
wireless network to backup the pc that doesn't have the rewritable drive, and
if I can where can I get some info on how to do it?

Hi
Yeah it can be done like any other backup through the Network. It would take
extra time because of the Wireless relative slow "Speed".
I do not know how you use the CD-R/RW for back up, but in principle you can
map the computer that needs to be backed up to the computer with the CD-R/RW
and back it up. I.e instead of backing up C:\ or a folder/files of C:\, you
do the same with X:\ (X being the drive's letter of the mapped drive).
