  1. How to properly configure the home network in Windows 10?


    Hello,
    I would like to ask if what I have done is the correct way to share files between two Windows 10 PCs (I am only interested in having access to the user folder of the respective PCs):

    • On both PCs there is a Microsoft account with a password
    • Set network as private
    • Enabled password sharing and 128 encryption from "advanced sharing settings" of the control panel
    • Disabled smb 1 (I read on the net that it must be done regardless)

    Everything is correct? Are there other settings to increase security? Can anyone connected to the same network view files without having a password?

    Thank you.

  2. Configuring NAS to my home network

    Change the GB ethernet switch with the router. The router as the first step will create it's own network, so you can have one subnet for all of your devices.

  3. Can't connect to a network.

    Hi Ayman,

    As you've mentioned, all your other devices were able to connect to the network except your computer. This issue may occur if there are other components that need to be configured properly or there are drivers that were not updated. To help you on this,
    we recommend that you follow the steps listed on this link.
    The steps provided in the link includes updating the network adapters and the network troubleshooter that may help to diagnose the issue.

    Let us know how it goes after performing the suggested steps.

    How to properly configure the home network in Windows 10?

    Did our Epson printer get hacked?

    Another question, is this on a home network or a work network? The steps @eidairaman1 listed are always a good first step. If this is on a work network you manage, I'd be much more concerned than the home one. It is possible someone is screwing with you, but malware could also be the culprit.
