Question: Laptop to laptop?

(Posted by: on 2010-03-17 15:27:15)

Well I like to mess with computers but the one thing that has me stoked is connecting my laptop to my other laptop. How could I connect my laptop to my second one? Also I would like to connect both of my laptops to my desktop pc.It doesn't have a wireless card or bluetooth. I have my cable router to get my internet plugged into a wireless router and my desktop and xbox 360 are connected with Ethernet cables. My laptops run off of the wireless router signal. HELP? I would really love to be able to view everything on my one laptop and my desktop and etc. etc.

Set ur router as a network conncetion and make sure all ur computers have sharing enabled. that u should be able to move files from one computer to another

You can connect them together if your woreless router has a ehternet plug for your cable modem , marked " Modem " maybe yellow and other plugins for connecting pc's . so llike usually at least 4 or 5 connections on the back. Plug your cable modem into the Cable port. Plug your other pc's into the wired computer ports. then turn on windows file sharing and use the wizard to connect them all to the main one or you can buy USB file transfer cables. that work like null modem or firewire. but that is more expense than a new router with more connections on it .
