I have a work laptop that I installed a wireless device
to connect to my wireless workgroup at home. The network
at work is a server based LAN. All computers are running
2000 Professional.
When I connect the laptop @ home, it connects to the AP
so that I can access the internet. I also can "see" the
home network and the computers connected to the network
(but not the shared folders or the printers), although
the laptop shows up on a seperate network. When I try to
open one of the computers on the home network for access,
the laptop says that the network server is not available
for logon. I presume it is trying to connect to the work
network as my home network is a workgroup.
Do I need to establish a different network profile for
the laptop at home so that it establishes itself as part
of the workgroup and not just part of my work server
domain?
TIA
