    Hey

    Basically what i got is 2 computers. The first one is directly connected to the internet (the internet goes from the internet router, to the wireless router which is then connected to the computer). The second one uses the wireless internet.

    Basically what i want to do is setup a network and allow file sharing and printer sharing.

    If anyone could tell me how to do so that would be great.

    Thanks.

    You pretty much answered your own question.

    What operating system is each computer using? File and printer sharing differs.

    Ok i was able to connect my 2 pc's together in a network. All i did was use the network setup wizard in windows it was quite easy.

    Now i wanna know if it is possible to add a Mac computer into the home network using wireless?

    Any ideas if this is possible?

    Thanks.

    If you have OS-X on the Mac, you pretty much can connect using the networking connections tools in the OS. If an older Mac OS, you would have to use a third party utility like D.A.V.E. You can connect to a Non-Airport network by when you input the Hex key, you have to use a '$' before the key (ie $12345678).
