    Ok, now I have googled this to death, and read all the help pages but I am still clueless

    I have a BT home hub, connected via Ethernet to my main pc, and accessed wirelessly by my laptop, PSP and Wii. This was easy to do

    Now, I want to share my printer and music files with my laptop but even using the wizard I seem to be struggling.

    Can someone please try and describe how I do this (Peter and Jane style)

    I thank you
