MShome Networkwizard on each end.The network works fine but it continues to fail and I have to run the wizard again on the host machine.This corrects the problem but it just re-occurs. When I launch the wizard again I have to re-set the connection method,it is defaulted to the wrong selection. When working,ICS,file and printer sharing works as advertised. Does anyone have a failsafe config for this simple network?I do not understand the IP and DNS setting but have thrown some entries in but not sure they are correct. Been told to buy a router but this works just fine if I can fix this one issue. TIA, Bob Hi
