Hey guys and girls,
I'm in need of help setting up a wireless network between my girlfriends laptop and my pc. She has a built in WiFi card and I've recently brought a PEAK II 802.11 b/g card. I've been using the windows built in wireless config program to connect but not much is happening. After setting up a network on my pc and using a flash drive to add her laptop to the network, they can find each other and say they have very good strength. However the laptop needs to share my internet connection and printer. I've shared all the drives on the network and only the laptop can see it's shared drives where as my pc can't even see its own! Wired networks are easy but have come a cropper with this wireless lark!
Help would be appappreciatedThanks

It's nothing to do with "wireless".
If you want to share your internet connection you'll need to set up ICS.
Be warned though, it is very flakey.
Your best course of action is to buy a wireless router and do it properly.
