Accessing a computer through wireless router?

[Gregg777]

Hi all,

I have two computers hooked up to a NetGear wireless router for dSL purposes. Is it possible to access the second computer through my laptop via the wireless router?

Yes.

Thanks Bradyams! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I am using XP Home. I was told to get VNC, then set one computer as the server, the other as the client.

VNC should do the trick or you could run terminal service right into it...from RUN type mstsc or mstsc /console if youll be doing any LIGHT installing
