Home networking

A couple of weeks ago I managed to get my work laptop, my wife's laptop and our desktop all conected. I have been able to share the Internet wirelessly for quite a while. I decided on a day off to make it all work, file and print sharing, etc. It took me about 3 hours but I got it going on.

I like to listen to iTunes and stream music from my desktop while I use the work laptop. It is nice to be able to print out a work spreadsheet and not email as an attachment or wait until I get in the office.

It would be neat to be able to use the Internet to access our home network. I know it can be done by Remote Desktop, but the last time I tried that I had to reformat my desktop.
