Hi,
I have an XP Pro laptop connected to a wired domain and work, but when i come home, i want to be able to access a wireless home network (not yet configured) and access the internet through this network. I've played around with this a little but haven't found a solution. Could Anyone please assist me?

Please reply to my email address if possible

Thanks
jason

If your computer is setup to logon to a Domain [at work], it will already have the Internet Connection set up for LAN.

When you set up the home network, make sure that when the Laptop is switched on, you choose to Logon to itself [the PC e.g. My Latop] and not the domain [e.g. myoffice.com].

Then it will automatically detect the Peer to Peer network.
