How do I connect my brother wireless printer to my home wireless router?

I have a windows 2000 desktop that gets internet as it is connected through a wireless router via an ethernet cable. I just purchased a Brother Wireless printer that I need help connecting to the wireless router and to the desktop (which does not have wireless capabilities.



PLEASE HELP ME!How do I connect my brother wireless printer to my home wireless router?
The other desktop if its not connected wirelessly they its easy. Just install the drivers for the printer on the desktop thats ethernet cabled to the router. Once installed go to start /settings then printers then on the printer in question right click it and go to sharing and share this printer on the network. But right click my computer/properties then computer name or the like and make sure all computers on the network share the same workgroup . By default MS windows uses the same name. But you can change it to any name you want to. All computers have to have the same workgroup name to share files and printers. Then on the other computer connected wirelessly go to start/settings printers and install new printer and it will ask if its a network printer or direct connect choose network printer and it wll install all thats needed.

If for what ever reason you can't get your wifi printer to work, you can always go powerline: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoBYr3Ezk



The would be the first thing to check though. Is your Brother bluetooth or wifi. If it is bluetooth, it is basically a wireless USB cable.
