The router is your "server". Just connect the PC and laptop to the router
and they should automatically see each other via My Network Places / Entire
Network / Microsoft Windows Network. On the PC, set folders and printers to
shared. You're done!
For security, be sure to WEP-enable the wireless link.

Hi Nigel

I had tried this befiore and in My Network Places / Entire
Network / Microsoft Windows Network there is a folder called Mshome
which is not accessible (you do not have permission to use this
network resourse). I've tried to remove it but it just throws up
errors. Do you know of a way to remove it so that I can start again?

How do I WEP-enable the wireless link ?
