I have been trying without success to connect my two desktop PC's together in
order to share printers through a linksys wireless router. Both have XP, one
is connected directly into the router while the other is connected through
wireless connection. What would I have to do in order to create the wireless
network?

Make sure that your PC wireless adapters and your router are all set to the
same speed, for example, if you are using 802.11g @ 54Mbps then you should
set all of your devices to 54Mbps. If you are using 802.11g 108Mbps Atheros
Super-G, then you need to make sure all devices are set to super-g/no
turbo/turbo static/turbo dynamic. Make sure all of your wireless
adpaters/Ethernet LAN adapter are compatible with your router manufacturer.
You may have to experiment a bit with different settings. Always start with
WEP/WAP encryption off so you can eliminate this as a possible cause. Once
you have established WLAN/LAN be sure to enable all devices and router for at
least WEP 128-Bit encryption for security.

Hi
If you can use the Internet from the Wireless then your problem is Network
Sharing.
May be this can Help: http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html
If you are Not capable to use the Internet from the Wireless then your
problem is lack of Wireless Connection.
