How can I remote access my Desktop PC and laptop that are running off of Win XP from my other laptop that running Win 7? The Desktop is not wireless but both laptops are, and I'm using a linksys wireless-G router.

First - are you going to access the machines over a LAN (such as in your home) or over the internet?



If it's on a local LAN, use TightVNC or UltraVNC. They are both free and available on the web as downloads



If it's over the Internet, I would use a free remote control website like Logmein.com. You load the software on the target machines and you have a fast secure connection from any other machine that has a browser.

It's a whole lot easier than setting up a VPN and creating a tunnel through the firewalls.

Try Remote Office Manager.



From official site:



- Complete compatibility with Windows 7.

- High performance in both local area and low bandwidth networks.

- A lot of features - file transfer, task manager, device manager, Wake On LAN and much more.

- Remote installation. There are several types of remote installation available, including installation in a domain, using a group policy and MSI.

Multi-monitor system support. If the remote computer has several monitors, ROM allows you to view or control them simultaneously in one window or switch to the necessary monitor.

- Security. All data is encrypted with the help of up-to-date technologies and public key protocols (RSA with a 2048-bit public key and AES with a 256-bit session key).

- Network map. It allows you to arrange computers on the network map showing their actual topological location.

- Configuring the program for running in case of a complicated network topology due to such features as "Connect through" and "Callback connection".

- ROM is deeply integrated with the drag-and-drop mechanism of the system. You can drag and drop files and folders directly onto the remote screen window and from it, which makes working with files as easy as possible. The file transfer mode also completely supports this mechanism.

- Capturing sound from the remote computer.

- Supporting an unlimited number of simultaneous connections.

- Free technical support.
