My home network was defined using Network Setup Wizard on Win XP Pro and uses a Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router.
I have a Laptop PC from work that normally works through VPN or network cable in the office, and I also got it to recognize the home wireless network for internet connection at home.
The issue I have is this:
- The laptop PC can't see any of the other PC's when at home, and the other (workgroup) PC's can't see it. (it is NOT using VPN for internet connection)
- I tried using the NET USE command to attach a workgroup PC shared directory as a drive but I get errors.
How do I get the laptop to be recognized by the home workgroup PC's and vice versa?
I was told the problem is becuase the laptop is part of a domain, the the home PC's are part of a workgroup. I was told to use the NET USE command to access a shared directory.
Is this possable?
