How Do I Get My Two Laptops To Talk To Each Other?
I have two laptops – both acer. The first has a built in Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG and the second (an older machine) has a Belkin 802.11g wireless card plugged in. I suspect I don’t understand networks well enough but I have tried everything but I cannot get the two machines to network. In the control panel I can see a Wireless network connection that loops through a BTHomeHub-9543. This is my internet connection. I have created a new profile called HomeNetwork with an SSID called Study. The operating mode is device to device. At the moment I have not set up an security settings. My First laptop is called HomeLaptop1. I have done nothing with the second laptop which is simply called HomeLaptop2. Can anyone please tell me how I can get these two machines together. I have been driven mad with the Windows XP or my cards telling me that something else is interfering with them. Any help would be much appreciate.
