I have a Dell Vostro w/an HP USB inkjet connected to my Desktop and a Netgear Wireless router. The printer works fine on the Desktop w/Vista Home Basic. I shared the printer and tried to get my laptop to see it. Both PC's have the same Username, Password and Workgroup on them. I get the printer to print then re-boot the laptop and I have to re-connect under the Network Icon w/the Username and Password. I checked "Remember Password" in the login screen. Any ideas? The Laptop has Vista Home Premium. Could this be an issue w the limited networking on Vista Home Basic???


TIA,


Jeff
