remove home network between computers?

[Guest]

I recently connected two computers with the "home office network" wizard
thing, and I'm pretty sure I did it wrong. I don't want a network between
the computers anymore, and I don't know remove it. How do I get rid of the
network?

Note: my computer runs xp home, the other runs xp pro.

Unplug the cable, take out the cards.

What cards? I'm not that good with computers, but the two computers are
connected via an internet router, not a direct cable or anything. And I
don't know what "cards" are =\.

You don't have to take out the cards, Just unplug the cables going to the
router, turn off the router.

Okay, thanks!

You don't have to take out the cards, Just unplug the cables going to the
router, turn off the router.

Do you still want the two computers to each be able to access the
Internet via the router?

If so then what you need to do is to open Control Panel - Network
Connections. Right-click on the icon for the Network Connection and
select Properties. Select the item "File and Printer Sharing for
Microsoft Networks" and then click on Uninstall.

Do this on both computers.

Good luck
