I recently bought a new HP desktop for my home to replace and aging Compaq desktop. Both computers connect to the web via a Netgear wireless network. The HP (slimline) uses a NETGEAR WG111T 108 Mbps Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter and the Compaq has a NETGEAR WG311T 108 Mbps Wireless PCI Adapter connecting through a NETGEAR WGT624 Router. I can get both computers to connect to the web but I can't get both computers to recognize each other so I can use the files and settings transfer wizard.
I made sure that both PC's have SP2 as well as turning off any firewalls and encryption protocols, but I still can't get the PC's to see each other. One odd item to note: on the new HP, when I use the transfer wizard, it only provides three options under the "Select a Transfer Method"; The home network option is not available.
Any help anyone can provide would be appreciated.
