OK..I'm trying to network my main computer with my
laptop. I'm using a Linsys Wireless G Router and have had
all kinds of problems. Without going through my step by
step, is there anyone who can give me the proper
procedure for setting up the file share and printer for
the network? One computer going through the router, the
other a wireless G notebook adapter. Oh.... When I try
to setup the notebook, the bridge shuts everything down.

Thanks.
 
What bridge are you talking about?

even before we worry about sharing files can you even establish network
connectivity (e.g. ping)?

Your main computer is wired to the router and the other is wireless or they
are both wireless?
 
Desktop is wired, laptop is wireless. When I try to set
up the wireless laptop,for file sharing, xp creates a
bridge which then knocks everything down. The bridge
disables the laptop card. If I remove the bridge,
connectivity returns. There is connectivity between the
two computers. Thanks
