I have 2 PC's, one upstairs and the other in the conservatory. The one downstairs has a printer.
They are both on broadband, one with a router plugged directly into it, the other using a wireless dongle thingie.
One runs on XP and the other is on Vista.
Is it possible to connect them wirelessly so if I need to print out something from upstairs I don't need to stick it on a usb stick and take it physically downstairs?
Is this a wireless home network? and if so, how the heck do I set it up please?
