How do I go about wirelessly connecting a houseful of computers?


computers & technology
How do I connect the computers in my house? They all use the routers connection. How do I set it up so that the computers recognize each other and share files. Each time I go to network sharing none of the other computers in the house show up.

Btw most of the computers in the house use vista.

How to set up a computer network for three computers?

computers & technology
We have 3 computers at work and are trying to connect them all together so that one can be the main server and the other two can dump files into it. It is okay if they are all open because we are on a secure network. As long as we can dump files into each others computers. One of the computers is running Vista and the other two are running XP. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

How do I network computers in two rooms wirelessly but still use ethernet cables going into all the actual PCs?

computers & technology
I currently have one office with a wired network and am about to get a second office room across the hall. But I’m not allowed to drill holes. How can I hook up computers in the new room to join in the existing wired network we have and access our file server without running a cable across the hallway (and still use wired computers in the new room)?

How do I network a bunch of computers already sharing an internet connection?

computers & technology
My computers are all successfully sharing a dsl internet connection via a wireless router. But I can’t figure out how to get them to see each other on a file sharing network, What am I missing? No single computer can see any other computers, but they can all use the dsl connection. What gives? I’ve networked the old fashioned way before so what am I missing?
