how do i network 10 or more computers to recognize each other for easy and fast work?
for instance, i want to network a printer to all multiple computers
there is a network breakdown in one of the ''networked'' computer, ho do i get it fixed to resolve the problem?, meanwhile the network cable is connected, and the network signal / icon LAN is shown on the task bar of the monitor but the it can not surf the internet.

Need more info to narrow down what you need.

What OS you using on the machines?

Is it a network capable printer (wired or wireless) or is it attached to a machine on the network?

Do you currently have a router or switch connecting the machines either wired or wirelessly?

Basically, doing it one simple way, you would need a router with DHCP enabled to assign IP addresses to the computers/printers on the network. That router would have to have an Internet connection (dsl/cable modem), which would allow the networked machines to have Internet access.
