You're welcome. :)
Yeah, merging them is pretty much pointless unless the internet connection comes from two separate independent sources (ex: modems). That way if one modem fails, the other picks up.
Hi,
thank you very much for the annswer and sorry for my late answer.
Just for my understanding: After adding the information to the regestry (e.g. by the Set_Unidentified_Networks_Private script) all new networks should be automatically defined as home network. There should be no popup or anything else. Is this right?
Heres the screenshot of my reges´try key:
Thank you in advance

Hello Alex,
It will only automatically set "unidentified" networks as a Home network. You will still get the pop-up when you create a new network to ask what type of network you want it to be.

Hi,
thank you very much for your answer. This was helping me a lot. Is there a way to also stop this window popping up? The problem is e.g. when putting my small backup system (With Windows 7 Pro) to a unknown network and wants to log on it by remote desktop, then I only could do it after confirming home network on the system. If you have a monitor in use - no problem but without you do not have a chance :-(
Thanks in advance and Regards,
Alex
Alex,
I'm not aware of a way to do so, but you might post that in the "Network & Sharing" forum to see if someone may know of a way.
hey, can i have a tutorial for 7 home premium? kthnxbi
Hello Cyber, and welcome to Seven Forums.
The OPTION TWO section in the tutorial with the REG files will work in all editions of Windows 7. :)
Hello Brink,
Thanks for the post this solved a big problem I was having with my Window 7 Pro 64bit.
I'm still having a problem with Windows Home Premium 64-bit. I did option 2 and that change from a Public to a private network. but I still can't see the Network shares from a Linux.
From the Linux machine a I can see all my PC's (running XP, Vista, Windows 7 Pro 64.bit) but I can't seem to see the Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit machine. Any ideas?
Thanks
JW
Hello JW, and welcome to Seven Forums.
I'm happy to hear that this tutorial was able to help you change it to a private network, but I would recommend to create a new thread on the other separate network shares from a Linux in the Network & Sharing forum area to get the best help on it. :)
