Dan, We'd be happy to do a free remote session to figure it out for you if you like. Happy weekend,

We�ve tried using various settings in Windows 8 but haven�t had any success in finding the network. On a Mac I would do this by going to the Connect to Server option under Finder�s �Go� menu and clicking browse. All network computers with file-sharing turned on would appear. Is there something similar that I could do in Windows to �browse� the network. He is using our internal Wi-fi to connect to the Internet, so he should have the ability to find our internal network. To find and set up the printer on a Mac, I would go to System Preferences/Printers & Scanners; is there something similar to that in Windows 8? I�ve done this before on XP, but 8 is a different beast. Thoughts?
