Hi
Thanks for your reply. In meantime not sure if success in gettign HomeGroup recognised on both machines is anything to do with what I did or if it was just down to HomeGroup just being it's tardy self with a new configuration. The HomeGroup connection came through on both machines after I had set Ethernet MAC Filter to allow the mac addresses of both devices.
However, don't think it was anything to do with this reconfiguration as prior to that there was no MAC address filtering applied at all.
I always find HomeGroup just takes it time after boot to become recognised on both machines (wired or wireless). There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to which gets there first. Adding these dLans maybe just seemed to make it even slower. As an aside is there any way to speed up HomeGroup recognition following boot?
