I have been trying to set up a home network,and come across some problems, first when i install my nic card D-LINK DFE530Tx+ and set up the drivers, when i start up my sys itm takes 5 minutes for it to start and wants a password . i tried it in all the pci slots and smae thing happens, it works fine though.no conflicts ..so i left it like that. and tried setting up the lan,ihave 2 pc's both use a d-link nic card.i ahve got them both hooked up to a 3com 10 mbps 5 port hub. i put my cable modem's rj45 line into the 3 coms uplink port and hooked the other pc's into the other ports. i have tried to set up the network nieghborhood so i can set up a work group for it.and i cant see my other pc in it but when i go to find other computer i cand find it and get files from it..i have no idea what i am doing ,i am trying to do this from i book i got from the libary and it dont help much..if you can run me through some steps it would help allot.. i cant seem to get on the internet with the new pc.it doesnt have a modem installed ,i thought i could just use my other pc's cable modem through the hub set up...anyway what ever help i can get would go a long way... thanks ...
