So now I've got things working pretty good. My desktop's online with no problems and my laptop runs wierlessly at a decent speed, though I can't seem to hook it up through ethernet anymore. The laptop doesn't seem to reckognize that there's a PCMCIA card in there. Anyway, I can live with it wirelessly.

I've used Mr Mephisto's guide in this thread here: http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/showthr...reless+network
and I've got steps 1,2,3 and 6 implemented. That should give me decent security shouldn't it?

My problem now is that I can't hook the two computers up over a network. I run the network wizard on both computers and nothing. I've turned off the windows firewall on both and still nothing.

Any suggestions?
