File & Printer Sharing

[Pat Garard]

G'Day All,

I am assisting my daughter who has 2 computers connected to a
DLink DSL302G ADSL Modem:

1. Desktop via USB
2. Notebook via Ethernet

Both can now access the internet.

This is a supported configuration and File/Printer Sharing should be
possible using the 10.1.1.x addresses supplied by the modem.

UNFORTUNATELY I made the mistake of running the Wizard
on one machine - the Home Network one that implements ICS.

That machine cannot see the Workgroup.

How may I "undo" the Wizard's magic spell?

Hi again, Pat,

Upon re-reading your question, after having posted a response, I am thinking
that perhaps the Workgroup names on each of the computers do not match. Check
the Workgroup names on each and, if necessary, change one of the Workgroup
names so that they are both the same.



Regards,

G'Day Patti,

Thank you for a very prompt and much appreciated response.

When next I see her, I will apply all your suggestions.

May you live long, and may your children be as numerous as the
hairs on your head!

You're welcome for the response

Hopefully at least one of my suggestions will help fix the problem. If not,
perhaps the folks who frequent the networking newsgroup would have further
suggestions, if you would like to pose your question to them:
microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web

Whoa! If my children were as numerous as the hairs on my head, I wouldn't
have any hairs left on my head!! LOL!
