It sounds like you are not getting an IP address. Are you using a router, or
just trying to connect the two computers wireless? If you don't have a
router you will have to assign an IP address manually to the network
connection. You should check the IP configuration on the first computer.

Hi
I think you should describe better your setting.
What is connecting to What?
Two Computers Ad-Hoc?
Wireless Router?
Internet source?
If you have a regular Wireless Router to Cleint Network this might help:
