Hi,
Someone might have answetred this before but I can't seem to get step by
step instructions on this. Please assist.

I have a laptop with a built in wireless HP WLAN 802.11 b/g W400 adaptor and
a PC with a Linksys WUSB54G ver2 wireless adaptor. No router. Can I set up
a PC to PC link (a sort of a wireless laplink) so that I can share files
between these two? Can someone show me how or direct me to somewhere with
step by step instructions?

Thanks.

Jack,
Thanks. I read this site as well and have set up my laptop and PC such that
both are connected. I am sorry for being so ignorant but what next? How do
I share files? I can't seem to see the laptop listed as a network place on
the desktop and vice versa. Once both are connected, what else must I do to
be able to see the HDD of the other PC and to be able to drag and drop files
from there?

Many Thanks.
