wireless connection between notebook and desktop pc?

Question

i have a notebook and a desktop pc. i want to make a wireless connection between them. I have a wireless card in laptop and i will get another for my desktop pc. Can i make a wireless connection with only cards or do i need some more equipment?

Answer 1

I don't know what that other person (cuite) is talking about.
She's mentioning cables and what not and that's not what you asked.

you can have an "ad hoc" connection between the two computers.

once you establish a connection, map a drive and you can copy from/to any files you want to.

Answer 2

I would agree with timc_fla. Use wireless ad-hoc mode. I wouldn't go with blue tooth only because that is other hardware you would need to buy and doesn't have the range as 802.11b/g wireless standard.

Answer 3

what on earth was cuite talking about ???!!!!

anyway 2 wireless card on the 2 comp will work out.set them in ad hoc mode and they wioll communicate.you also need to assign static IP (any IP in same range, eg : 192.168.1.75 and 192.168.1.80) on the wireless cards.then enable file sharing on the computers and this will work...

;-)
