I had a functioning home network a few days ago with file and print sharing.
It consists of a wireless router and adsl modem. There are two computers on
the network, one being a desktop and the other a laptop. A few days back, I
noticed there were new Windows updates installed on my laptop (which is
running XP home). When I rebooted, the print sharing no longer worked.
Also, when I attempt to look in any remote folders in my network places, they
all request a username and password (something that was never needed before).
As suggested to others with a similar problem, I ran ipconfig and browstat
on both machines. Please see the output below.
