Temporarily joining a wifi network on xp

Hi all

At the moment I have wifi network at home (router wired to desktop PC, wifi to laptop) which I've set up to share my broadband connection and also to share files through XP explorer.

When I bring my work laptop home I sometimes need to copy files over. I can easily enough use the broadband connection via the router but it would be useful to be able to directly share files across computers.

I can't change the network settings on my work laptop and anyway wouldn't want to as it'd stop the laptop from working back in the office

At the moment I'm having to get by by emailing documents as attachments or using an online storage site, or by slow old bluetooth.

Ideally I'd like to temporarily add the laptop as an extra drive letter on the desktop.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
