LO

anyone know how i get my two comps to find each other on a wireless lan ?

They can both get on the net , but can't seem to connect/find each other so we can play.

Thanx

U need to set file and printer sharing on and dependant on ur firewall, possibly set the 2nd PC as a trusted zone on the firewall of ur main PC (the one that connects to the net). I've had to do that when using Nortons anyway.

Personally, I'm also a bit cautious of setting the main PC with file and printer sharing on, as I don't feel the PCs as secure when it is. I'm not too worried about the 2nd one as u can only access it on the net thru the main PC, and thats got a fair bit of security on it for ppl to get thru.

Hope this helps some
