How to set up your own home network

If you own two or more computers, you can connect them together on the same network and gain some immediate benefits.

With two or more computers on the same network, you’ll be able to print to the same printer, which is the set up I have at home. My wife’s laptop is downstairs in the kitchen desk, and the printer is upstairs next to my workstation. We can both use the same printer, which means we don’t have to keep a printer in the kitchen – a big plus for saving precious desk space.

You’ll also be able to copy files from one computer to another if they’re connected on the same network, and can even share an Internet connection.

To set up a home network on Windows XP, you’ll need to run the Network Setup Wizard on each computer. Click the Start button and then select Control Panel –> Network and Internet Connections –> Network Setup Wizard.

Choose one computer to be the main server, through which the other machines will connect to the Internet. The other computers will then connect to the Internet through this main server.

Run the Network Setup Wizard on the other computer(s), but select the option to connect to the Internet through the first computer.

Give each computer a unique name and description, so they can be identified on the network.

Use the same WORKGROUP name on all your computers – this is how Windows figures out that they need to all be on the same network.

How To Create A New Web Site

I’m often asked how to set up a website, either for personal use or for a new business. Fortunately, it’s easy and very affordable to create a new web site, or to add a blog or forum to an existing web site. You don’t even have to know HTML or web programming, thanks to several free and powerful website templates.

Here are three steps to creating a new web site from start to finish.

Check if your domain name is available.

A domain is the name of your website, such as rickysays.com or dad-eblog.com. Domains normally end with .com, .org, .net, .biz, and .info – the most popular being the .com ending.

Here’s a link to check if your domain name is available: Check now (click “Domain Check” once you’re there)

Checking if a domain is available is completely free, and there’s no obligation to purchase the domain. However, if you think of a great idea for a website name, you’re smart to reserve it as soon as possible – before someone else snatches it for themselves!

In fact, most web hosting providers give you a free domain name when you sign up with them – read on:

Sign up with a web hosting provider.

A web host is a company that stores your web pages and makes them viewable on the Internet. They also provide email accounts, blogs, forums, and even online store fronts.
