Can't join laptop to Homegroup
Hello:
I just connected my Toshiba Satellite L675 wirelessly to my new modem gateway (include router), Motorola SURFboard SBG6580. The laptop has Win 7 Home Premium. My desktop (Win 7 Ultimate) is connected via Ethernet cable to the modem gateway. Both can access the Internet.
I set up a Home local network from the desktop, with a password. Both computers show Homegroup in the Control Panel.
When I click on the laptop Homegroup icon, and then on Join, and I add the password, I get "Incorrect password". The password is *correct*.
What can I do to get around this problem? Thank you in advance for help.
