Question

i have a laptop and a desktop..does anyone know how can i do remote desktop connection from laptop to desktop ?

Answer 1

LogMeIn.com can do that for you. All you need to do is go on both computers and register them under the same account for free (you'll get what I mean). It also works with Macs.

Answer 2

Do you want to do it from home?  Do you have windows xp professional, or home?  Professional has the software built in that you need to connect to your desktop, as long as you're at your house on the same network.

Answer 3

It is easy to do. That is what I am doing now. Linksys WRT54G series are great wireless routers and relatively inexpensive. Their set up is simple. If you buy local try BestBuy, on the net try Newegg or TigerDirect. You will have a wire from your modem to your router and one from your router to your desktop computer. Use the one plugged into your computer now you don't have to move it on the computer end. Be sure to set up the encryption. It is easy too. Linksys is good at helping if you don't understand any of it.

If your new laptop has an "N" band card you can use an "N" band or "G" band router. G is the cheapest and if all you are going to do is use your laptop for the internet and not send large files between your desktop and laptop G band works as well as the more expensive N band. The N band can send files from your two computers faster but in the US we don't have a broadband speed faster than what a G band can handle.
