Workgroups

[Guest]

I set up a network between two computers at home. Windows XP Professional.
My concern is sharing files. At first it worked great but then I had an
issue with the internet and my router. After we fixed that problem (had to
fix the IP address), I cannot see the workgroups in my network connections.
I may have "fiddled" too much with things. I have looked everywhere, tried
everything. I just want to share files and my printer. Any suggestions?

Since we don't know what your "fiddling" consisted of, try going through
this network troubleshooter by MVP Hans-Georg Michna. If you take the
time to go through the t-shooter carefully, it will pinpoint the source
of the problem(s) for you.
