I am connecting a computer running Win XP Home with two running Win ME, via a broadband router LAN hub and the Windows Home Networking wizard -- which is about all I know about networking!! The XP computer used to run ME and the three-computer network worked fine. Now it takes 30-40 secs after clicking on a shared drive in My Network Places for it actually to connect and display the...

The easiest way to go about this would be to get a wireless access point with built in router, you can pick one up for about £45 on Dabs, I got a Adaptec one a few months ago, it had a 4 port router as well as the wireless.. With the setup you have I would think you could still do it, though I haven't tried. If your PC1 is the pc connected to the internet then all you have to do is enable...

I have a windows 98 machine peer to peer networked to 2 other machines, yet I cannot get a user name prompt at boot in order to log onto the network (workgroup) The win98 laptop on the same network always throws up a username and password login (whereby if you pressed cancel you'd still load the desktop, but wouldn't be able to browse the network) However, the desktop machine refuses to...

Hey all, Have been trying to connect two PCs on an ad-hoc network which have cards from different manufacturers. I've checked that their on the same frequency and that their both set to ad-hoc, but other than poking about with the channel numbers on them i have no idea what to do. Should SSIDs be the same, or different? Any help for a complete newbie would be greatly appreciated! Regards, ...

Hi all: My computer can not see the other computer in the network. And will not automatically re-connect to the other computer anymore. Manually however, I can access the other computer through network Neighborhood, and transfer files etc., but explorer does not see it. Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

Anybody use this hub before.....?? I want to configure it but either Hyperterm(Windows) or minicom(linux) can connect to it... -harald

In article , says... hi My setup is a desktop and a laptop connected by a router. My question is, can I shut one down remotely from the other. I.E. When I have finised with one, type a command that with shut down the other computer.

"Wake on LAN" is useful. too. Provided all your machines are capable of the BIOS being set to LAN BOOT, you can start any shut down machine remotely. This, in combination with a remote shutdown utility has saved me miles of walking..... Chris "John Blundell" wrote in message ... In article ,...

It's all too confusing! So I'm looking into WiFi and I think that I need an Access Point for my Desktop and a PCMCIA card for my laptop. Then I find out that I don't need an access point for my desktop as its not connected to a wired network and I'm only ever going to have 2 PC's. So I am now thinking of buying the Netgear WG311 PCI card for my desktop.
