Connecting Wireless Laptop to Wired Desktop in Linksys WRT54G

by mccpanelo . Updated 18 years, 9 months ago

Hi,

I recently bought a new Linksys WRT54G router version 7 and i am trying to connect my wireless laptop to my wired desktop pc.

I followed everything on the manual and get the router working. in fact, both pcs have an internet connection. however, my real target is that i want my laptop to share its files to the desktop and vice versa.

My desktop PC is wired through one of the ethernet ports of the router, and my laptop is connected to the wireless side of the router. when i am trying to browse the network using Network Places, the desktop can see my laptop on the network however it cannot connect. On the other hand, when i browse the network using my laptop, i cannot see my desktop pc on the network.

May I ask if what should i do in order to get this problem be solved. Thanks and Good Luck!
