Okay. I don't know how, but I made a wireless network. It's a computer-to-computer network. I don't know how to do anything at all with it.

I would like to:
-Share computer A's internet connection with computer B
-Be able to move files from one compy to the other (using the Shared Documents folder? I don't care how...)

Any help greatly appreciated.

ok

what I did was this. Windows XP.
I went into Wireless Network Connection Properties. I Add...ed a new prefferred network. Added in the SSID and (optional) WEP code. Then I try to connect. I do this on both computers. It works. They seem happy enough about this. My Nintendo DS can detect the network (or whatever it is I have just created). This can be an ad-hoc network... or the other kind. It's all good. I just don't know... what to do.

I also want
-to be able to play my DS online

also, when I set a 5-character WEP code, Windows sees fit to turn it into an 8-character something. wtf? The two compys don't care. But I do. I want to use my DS >:/

Well, I suggest you remove the WEP key so your DS can freely connect.
Other than that, I think there's a place in My PC that is shared on both computers if there is a small network running. If you put a file in that folde rin one PC then all the other PCs connected get it. But I dunno.
