Dear All,
I would like to know how to create a network for three computers connected
to an internet broadband router, when there is no internet connection, and
to have the computers share a printer connected by usb to one of the three?
Thanks for your help.

Run the network setup on the "main" computer. Go to start > My Network
Places > set up a home network. Follow the prompts and at the end choose to
copy the settings to a disk. Take this disk and run it on the other 2
computers. Once this is done reboot and check out My Network Places again.
You should see the other computers (view workgroup computers). To share the
printer make sure the comp the printer is attached to is on. On the other 2
go to start>printers and faxes > add a printer. Browse the network untill
you see the printer and choose it.
