I have 2 laptop computers in 2 different rooms. One of the computers has a printer attached to it via usb port. My objective is to be able to print wirelessly from the computer in room #1 while the computer and printer in room #2 are both on.
Both computers are wirelessly attached to a wireless gateway and we have no problem using them to get to the internet. When using computer #1 I can see computer #2 on the network, but when I double click that computer, it asks me for a user ID and network password. At this point I do not know what to do.
Just what is a network password? I do not recall inputting any such password into each computer. I do have the gateway SSID and key, as well as the workgroup name.
I have set up the printer for sharing as well as the MYDOCUMENTS folder on each computer.
Any help would be appreciated.
