(Wireless Network) I know it's been done to death but I is confused

Hi all

I have done a search for this and come up with several threads, I followed a tutorial that Saab Dastard posted from MS but this seemed to delete my current net connection

So if you don't mind can I start from the top and then get some advice as to what I need to do.

First off, I have a desktop PC, and a laptop, upstairs is my broadband connection, I had to move the desktop downstairs after the arrival of our 2nd daughter, so on this connection I have a BT Voyager 2100 wireless router which is obviously plugged in and running, downstairs my desktop has a Linksys Wireless G USB wireless network adapter which is connecting my desktop to the BT Voyager. The laptop has a Netgear WG111 wireless dongle which is connecting the laptop to the BT Voyager, now the question is, how do I connect the 2 PC's together? or do I need another bit of hardware? all I want to be able to do is to use the wireless connection to print off files from the laptop, my printer is connected to my desktop PC

Both PCs use Win XP

Thanks again

Dean
