Connecting to scanner through wireless router
I bought a new computer and am having trouble connecting to my home scanner. My old machine was a Windows XP Pro and I had a friend set up the scanner folder for me. Naturally, I didn't take notes. I'm now using Windows 7 Pro and although I can print wirelessly, I cannot figure out how to set up the connection to the scanner. The multi-function machine is a Kyocera Mita CS-1650. I'm getting my internet signal through Hughes satellite and have an Asus wireless router attached to the Hughes device. That's about everything I can think of. Thanks in advance for your help.

I may not have mentioned that I am also in the process of re-establishing a tunnel to my office network. The Asus router wasn't capable and I've replaced it with a Netgear VPN router...and hired onsite help. This was slightly above my knowledge level and taking more time to figure out than I can currently afford. Thanks to all that posted responses to my questions. Although I'm paying for onsite support you guys reaffirmed my EE account is well worth the $$$.

@joelsplace: yes, I scan on the device then go view the scanned images on my laptop (which is connected wirelessly through the Asus router). So how do I set up the folder/tell the scanner how to find it, etc?
