Setting up windows xp desktop as a server and linking a Windows 7 laptop via linksys E2000
I have a Dell inspirion desktop running windows xp. I just connected it by ether net to a Linksys E200 wireless router. I have been able to get my wife's laptop to recognize the router and get on line with both computers (desktop via ether net, laptop via wireless). My problem is: I cannot get the two to network together so I can use the desktop as a server for shared printing (USB printer Canon Prixma). I'm laid off and cannot afford to buy a wireless printer just for the laptop so I'd like to make this system work. I have tried dell networking tool, I've tried windows networking and they dont' see each other......any ideas?1 person got this answerI do too
