    Easy Network and Sharing setup?


    Since XP and beyond, until Windows 10, turn on Network discovery and sharing was so easy!

    Why is it so hard to do now? Many hoops to jump through, just to find out you still don't have access to a second or third computer on your private network.

    It would be nice to have a button to push... script? Download?

    :)

    W10 Sharing on LAN -- Need to REFRESH Network to access shares


    I still think this must be a setting and so re-installing Win10 won't fix. Before you reinstall, I suggest that you create a new Workgroup and see if that works. (Choose Work in the Wizard, not home)

    Good luck... Easy Network and Sharing setup? :)

    Help needed with simple wired network

    Step one- Connect all PC's to router, and then the router to the modem. PC's go to router by the ports labeled "1-4" on the back of the router. WAN port goes to router. Power up all network equipment, and then systems.
    Step two- Power on the computer connected to port one. Go into router settings at 192.168.0.1 and configure internet, dyndns, firewall, etc.
    Step three- Go to "network set up wizard" in windows. (Network places- network set up wizard). The rest is self explanatory.
    Step four- right click on each drive and printer you want to share, and then configure sharing preferences. Should be easy enough.
    Step five- right click my computer, and the select "map network drive". Using the network address for each piece of hardware you shared, assign network drive letters.

    Congratulations, you have a fully operational network. Happy Gaming! *Toast :toast:
