I've had an occasion to notice that the windows explorer, not IE has been
trying to access the net, and I'm unsure as to why that must be. If its only
because it's trying to access the immediate house network than I no longer
need to block it through the firewall.. If otherwise, ...

I have a 2-client network (1 vista, 1 XP) connecting to a Linksys
WRT300N.  It was originally wireless, but after spotty connectivity we
*added* ethernet wiring.  Connectivity was still spotty, so I dropped
by to see things for myself.

I accidentally ran the HNW in an instance where I don't intend to share files
around my home network.  I have a DSL modem connected to a router (wired and
wireless).  My main machine (desktop running XP PRO fully up to date) is
connected to the router by cat5 cable and had been ...

I am having difficulty getting a Win 2000 desktop integrated into a home
workgroup network with two Win XP Pro computers (one desktop and one laptop).
I particularly need for the W2K computer to print to a shared printer on the
XP Desktop.

My network consists of 3 computers: a laptop and 2 desktops. All running WinXP - 2 Pro and 1 Home.  There are files and folders shared on all the computers.  The problem is this: whenever I go to view the network to access any of the shared files on from the desktop computers, I ...

My computer model is the Satellite U205-S5002 running XP.  I've been having
some internet issues for the past couple of months.  Everything will be

and websites wont load.  It's strange, though, because ...

I am unable to see my local computer (DellP490) on the Workgroup at my home
office.  The Workgroup can be seen from this computer and others, but this
computer cannot be seen in the Workgroup from any computer.  The computer is

Hi. Until recently I had a nice little WAN running at home. I have a SKY
Broadband netgear box, and I set up a belkin wireless card on my son's pc,
and it worked. Patchy, but it still worked. If my wife brought her laptop
home I could use it on there too.

Start>help on my PC laptop (XP Pro) says to use the command "getmac" to get
the MAC address.  A search on the net says to use "ipconfig".  In both cases
a window with a black background (where you'd expect the text from these
commands would appear) pops up without any content and ...

    In my XP, and I am sure in all other versions as well, it has become
common that the dialup is being triggered by some functio n in the

even in tmmes before, I have had dialup only, something triggers an

I have 2 workgroup computers on my LAN. Both of them can see
themselves fine, but the problem is different:

I need instructions.  My network is running well.  My desktop (XP) has the
