OK, so they tell me this is an easy task.
Maybe it is, if you have six years of network tech training and a MS VP status.
But hey, all I want to do is network a very small cluster of two hardwired machines and one wireless device together.
"How hard can that be?" I ask myself.
Faaarking near impossible.
For a start the wireless tablet and one of the desktops are running XP, the primary machine ( mine) is running Vista.
Aaargh. Not even Methuselah himself would have the patience to keep trying, and trying, and trying again to get this to work.
Ah hah, "create a wireless network connection," reads the appropriate Network application window.
OK.
No problems...put this in here and pull it out.
Put it in there and shake it all about.
Should work.
Oh Yeah! Like hell!!
"Not recognised. No software loaded".
Huh! All I want to do it get them talking to each other.
Ah well, I give up. No wireless connection; hardwired only.
I guess it's gotta be easier than using Linux, or Mac OX.
Hasn't it?
