Problems with home networking

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

This newsgroup supports Microsoft's Broadband Networking hardware and
software, not networking in general. I suggest you post to the
microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web newsgroup.

If you're having difficulties with the web based newsgroup interface, you
may want to know you can use a news reader (like Outlook Express) to access
the msnews.microsoft.com news server and subscribe to any of Microsoft's
newsgroups you wish. No logon, no password, and it is free to anyone no
matter your Internet Service Provider.
