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 (

thanks so much for everything already!
