Need computer networkin help
 

ok...

we have a linksys wifi router, a network harddirve, and printer...

but I can't figure how to network em all...

some tell me how?

I'm 99% sure that the wires are correct...

I just cant figure how to share the hard drive and printer etc

call linksys.....

ha ha... wow... thats a great idea...

thanks

yes i know, I had trouble with my linksys a while back so i called them and they were a big help

do you have everything shared?

That's not enough info to be very thorough but, you'll need to check that they've all gotten an IP via DHCP. You can check the current leases in the Firewall/Router. I would reserve an IP to each MAC address so you don't have to deal with differing IP's after a power failure. If you're sharing the printer from a desktop/laptop then you'll need to make sure the OS is sharing it. If you're sharing from IP ready devices then you just need to know which devices have which IP's and then you can simply connect from the tools menu of any Explorer window.

If you want, PM me your Yahoo IM handle and I'll walk you through the setup as much as I can.
