It is quite easy to create a network in Windows 7. You can create a home group easily. Just follow the given steps:
1. After installing windows it will prompt you make a network. Click on home group and it will take some time to configure your system.
2. Now select the files you want to share.
3. A new window will appear and will give you a password. You have to use this password to connect the other devices to network.
And it’s all done here. Just three steps and you are done. But remember that on the entire PC in the network there should be a password protection. Meaning, each user should have a password on his account. Without password Windows7 will not make a network connection.
There are 2 ways to network a printer, via Ethernet cable of wireless connection.
Wireless printer – Printer must have a built-in wireless adapter installed. Turn on the wireless printer and do the set-up installation using the CD driver. You'll need SSID and WEP to connect to the network.
Via Ethernet cord – Plugged the printer into the network, via a hub or router. You'll need either USB or Ethernet cord to do the installation. A CD is provided by your printer manufacturer to guide you on the installation.
Go to Start, Control Panel and Hardware and Sound then Printers.
Go to Add a Printer and choose Add a Network, Wireless or Bluetooth printer then the steps will guide you to the installation wizard.
