Connecting to NAS Drive Wirelessly

    Hi all,
    I am a bit of a novice when it comes to networking etc, I have a Seagate GoFlex Home Hard drive which I am using on my wireless network (Huawei B260a Wireless Router). It is working fine at the minute using the software which came with the hard drive. I can connect either wired, wirelessly or remotely. It also has a USB port to add another hard drive or to network a printer. However the software the hard drive uses seems to be clumsy and slow.
    I am wondering is it possible to connect wirelessly to it using just windows' (XP) own networking setup? Or will seagate have this blocked out? How would I approach this? I wouldnt need to connect remotely but would like to be able to network the printer using this.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Brian
