Help! wireless link between computers not working

Apr 04, 2005 2 Replies

I have an asus/advent notebook with a Belkin 54g pcmia card that I know works (well I have connected to another network with it ;~) !) I have a wired lan to my desktop. So I thought I would get a PCI belkin wireless card for the Desktop PC, followed the instruction for installation, and .....nothing, neither card sees the other? I assume I am doing something wrong... so any ideas? Both computers are running ME

Are you connecting them with an access point? If not, you need to set the wireless cards to 'adhoc' mode. (in advanced options)

I have done that , I have removed, reinstalled just in case, If both wireless cards are on, surely you can use the site monitor in the utilities and see the other one, or am I missing something very basic!
