I have 2 desktop computers and one printer on my wired network, the ones in my sig. I won't even attempt getting the Win XP Home one on till this is solved. I want to share files, printer and internet. I have Verizon FIOS with Actiontec router/modem

When I marked certain files in each puter for sharing, surprisingly, the network set itself up immediately, calling itself generic "Homegroup."

I've renamed the network my old name "RSNETWORK," but when I click on it, there's the message below for this Win7 comp, saying I'm not on. I've already followed a tutorial and listed my network as "work" rather than "home, " because of the XP. Is there a difference between a homegroup and a network?

The Verizon techie was here this week to reset my ONT because I had unplugged it, and he turned off my internet temporarily. I don't know if that's relevant. Before he left, we checked to see each puter had internet, but they don't handle networking.
