Hello! I have windows XP operating system and I heard that I can wirelessly network other computer without wireless router or other ones. What I do not know is how I can do that? I do not even know is that possible? Would you be so kind and tell me more about this? Thanking you in advance!

This is possible. You have to configure first host computer, then client computer and share connection. To configure host:
Open view wireless networks, then click advanced, then choose computer to computer (ad hoc) networks only. After that click on wireless networks, then click add, then will appear wireless network properties dialog box. Now enter name in network name (SSID).
To configure client do:
Open wireless network properties and you will see in the dialog box that name of your connection has appeared. Click on it, then clik ok.
To share connection do:
On the host open network connections, click network task, then change settings of this connection, then click on advanced tab, choose allow other network users to connect through this computers internet connection. Enable these changed settings.
