Hello.

My Workgroup computers share folders via a Wireless Internet Connection and not through my LAN.

How do I configure my LAN network to use the Workgroup computers?

My Internet connection is not reliable.

Thanks,
William Johnston

Hi
Wireless is only a replacement for wire and once it is set to work it is LA.
All other LAN configuration are the same for wire or wireless.
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network
settings,http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html
As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is
allowed to be shared.
