hi

i have a networking question.

i cant seem to get two pc's to see each other and im trying to get them both to share the printer and share files, this is really the first time i actually tried this. i was wondering if there is a web site that give you some more insite on it.

but its two pcs one runs winxp and the other runs win2k

one is using a wireless card and the other is wired to the router.

with the router you have the option of using a wireless or wired or both at the same time.

but any help would be apprecieated. so far i got them both surfing the net fine

Sounds like you haven't created an account on each machine for the other to login to...

Yup what noo said. Also make sure you have file sharing enabled (easy to over look sometimes). Cheers.
