    Networking Desktop to new laptop.
    « on: April 15, 2009, 06:52:45 AM »
    I have my new laptop up and running just fine with the wireless DIR 655 D-Link router.  Now what are the steps to go thru to get the 2 networked where I can print to the printer hooked up to my desktop?
    Thanks

      You can try to use the Network and Internet settings / wizard under Control Panel.

      It can be difficult to netowrk Vista and other versions of Windows.

      HERE is some background information about Vista and Windows ME.
