Hi,

I am having a problem connecting my iMac and Mac Mini to do some wireless Screen Sharing.

I use my Mac Mini as my HTPC and I like to connect it to my iMac to manage the files of the Mini. Both computers are in the same room only about 8 feet away from each other.

I set up screen sharing a while ago and it has been working great. I used it all the time to transmit files from the iMac to the Mini and manage them. Then all of the sudden this week I can't seem to connect the two computers anymore. Neither computer sees the other's wireless signals.

I can see 10-15 wireless networks from my various neighbors, and I can even connect to an unsecured one with both computers. But I can't seem to get the two computers to recognize each other.

I restarted the computers, I tried creating new networks with each computer, but nothing is working. Can anyone give me some suggestions on how to fix this problem?
