RE: Wireless Network, HELLLLLLLLP
First the typical thing is to see if you can ping each machine.
Start -> Run -> cmd
ping may
If that does not work try entering the ip of the computer "ping 192.168.0.x" or whatever it is.
If that still doesn't work its your network connection. If it does work then it isnt your network connection (so not a problem with the wireless equipment).
Try disabling the firewall temporarily on each computer to see if that makes a difference.
Also, you need to enable file and printer sharing ont he computer. Go Start -> Control Panel -> Network Connections. Right click on the network connection and go Properties. Click Install -> Protocol -> Add. If File and Printer sharing doesn't show up in that list or is in the parent list in "This connection uses the following items" it is installed already.
Also, if you try navigating to \\Computer ip in Windows Explorer, does that work? If so it's a problem with hostname resolution on one of your computers. Edit the "hosts" file (google it) and add both machines to it.
