I have a home network with 2 computers,running xp.They can "see" each other,share files,share a printer but they cannot connect to the internet at the same time.I have a dial-up 56k modem on my main pc.I have ran the network wizard a dozen times with different settings,but no joy.Each time I try to log on to the internet on my second pc,the error 633 appears on my main pc.I dont know whether its relevent,but I cannot access IE without going through AOL first.

Regards R.Turner

With dial-up or AOL dial-up connection you can only connect one PC at the time To connect both of them at the same time you need DSL or if you want something cheaper use Netzero-high speed.
