    Default Wireless networking help plz?

    Allllright:

    I have cable internet running into a wireless router. From the wireless router I have a wireless connection to my laptop, and a 'hardline' to my desktop. With me so far?

    I want to move a file from my laptop (wireless) to my desktop.

    How do I do so?

    Running xp on both machines.

    ya ya. I threw it on my thumb drive, but thats not the point

    I can ping from my desktop to the laptop through its name (vaio), but I cant see any of its files. The folders are shared. Firewall problem?

    Just run thru the networking wizard on both machines ... XP makes it very easy. Otherwise, use a jump drive.

    Setup the same workgroup on both machines and share a folder or two on each. Then you go through Network Neighbourhood to reach the other machine.
