HI! I will ask the same question again ;)
does anyone knows why Win XP without any reason is changing Node Type
from Broadband to Peer-Peer?

It would be great, if someone could tell me that!
thank You ;)

According to Microsoft Knowledge Base Article:
"Default Node Type for Microsoft Clients"
<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/160177/en-us>

The node type can be set by your DHCP server, a Registry key, or left
to default according to computer settings. My guess is that sometimes
your DHCP server sets it and sometimes it defaults. Set the registry
key if you want it not to change.

HTH,

Do you mean "Broadcast" vice "Broadband"?

Does it happen when changing networks? A wireless or Ethernet card can be
at fault.
A change in the registry value as suggested by John's replay may be
warranted.
 
Ok, now I understud!
Bu t one more quetion is left- what is the purpose of the node type?
