sending files wirelessly

I have a new computer and backed up (using windows FAST wizard) my
files and settings on a second HDD that is on the old computer. After
my new system is up and running, can I transfer the files wirelessly
via my home network (Linksys router) from the old system to the new
one, as opposed to taking the drive with the back-ups out of the old
box,it into the new one, restoreing data, and then putting the old
drive back into the old box? The total back up is about 12 files each
with over 2 gb (yes, that's GB) each.

Thanks!!

Eddie,

If you have no problems with WiFi connectivity or file sharing, you'll be able
to transfer any files that you like, wirelessly, by your home network. That's
the purpose of home networking. Just setup the network properly.
