Have you run the Wireless network configuration wizard on your computers?
can you access the internet on either of your systems?

Finally!!!! My network works! I ran the wireless network wizard, disabled
norton firewall and all works. Now the last thing. I am trying to transfer
a 2.56gig folder from one comp to the next over my wireless connection. It
tells me it will take 101 minutes when I drag it through win explorer and
then hangs. How can I do this the reliable and quick way? Here is an image
of my wireless network connection (
http://www.pdopticsinc.com/palka/net.jpg). ANy help will be appreciated and
thanks so much for everything already!
