Because it isn't on a network it is a single computer fed from
a router with the broadband "modem" inside.
When you have another computer attached then yo will have a
network. but to see the other computer to will have to allow
it to be seen and contacted by the other machine otherwise it
is another single machine sharing a WAN connection via a
router.
Is that is response to:
Speaking of resolving issues that are out of the norm,
perhaps we can go back to my original question which was
something like, "Why isn't this XP Home computer listed in
Network Neighborhood?"
Are you saying that if there's only one computer connected to the
router, it (the computer) will not appear in My Network Places? I
just checked on my wife's Home XP and even with my computer
unplugged from the router, her shared drives/folders appear.
Sorry if I misunderstood.
