i can't help you step by step but what i can tell you is this i have to set up or the wireless connections at my house so when i was trying to view shared files on my bro's laptop and vice versa i saw that i need to have a password. I have no clue why but it worked for me, hope it helps. P.S. i tried taking off my password after but then my bro's laptop couldn't wirelessly connect to the printer
