Networking at home
We have 3 computers that are used at home.
We have:
- A desktop (new)
- 2 laptops (one from work)
- 2 printers
All of these macines can use out router to connect to the Internet.
I would like to be able to do the following in order of importance and could use some help or direction on where to find help:
- Access folders on the desktop from either (both) of the laptops wirelessly. We were able to do this with our old desktop. I did it by sharing a folder on the desktop and I was able to find that folder and drop and pickup files from that folder. I am not able to do this with our new desktop becuase I can't find, from the laptops) the folder I made shared (on the new desktop).
- Use the printers (connected to the desktop) from the laptops wirelessley. Used to be able to do this as well.
- Connect using remote desktop to my desktop from anywhere. I am still considering this and would also accept any warnings or advice aginst it.
Your help would be appreciated.
