I have a wireless O2 broadband router. My PC connects to the router wired & my laptop connects wireless. but due to some reason im unable to set up a file sharing network between them... could it be the security programs ? firewall ? but i have deactivated them all but still no luck.
pls advice
thank you

XP? Run the Network Setup wizard. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/setup/homenet.mspx
Both pcs in same workgroup?
Have you set folders to sharing mode?

What firewall are you using?

With the ZA firewall, make sure that your network connection is in the TRUSTED zone. In ZA, Go to Firewall/ Zones.
