I have everything networked. 2 PCs and XBox wired in plus wireless for when my wife or I bring our work laptops home.

I have two desktops connected via a wired network, and one desktop and one laptop connected via wireless. (it is too difficult to get a cable to that one desktop.)

SMC Barricade 7004BR router/firewall connected to my RoadRunner Cabelmodem. I also have a belkin 802.11B wireless router plugged into the SMC for roaming laptop access through the house. (yes, i know double-NAT and double firewall is a networking "no-no", but i am lazy and it works ;) )

"Yes, I have a Wired & Wireless Network"

All the desktops are wired with gigabit and connected to a D-Link gigabit switch which is connected to a D-Link a/b/g (b is disabled) wireless router.

That's almost my same setup. SMC to the cable modem. NetGear 814 B Only connected to that but centered in the house. Also an old Linksys Hub in the PC room that's plugged into the router. 3 PCs plugged into that, XBox connected to the Netgeat.

wireless only between three desktops, but now that i don't study home, when i go back, the network is usually three desktops and one laptop (all wireless).

very rudimentary, but i'm hoping to get a print server going, using my dad's very old laptop, and maybe a file server and logon server as well (somehow)

Wireless for everything except my HTPC. My router is next to my TV so I just ran a cable to the router.

wired desktop, wireless laptop and sometimes another wired pc. Theone that goes in my car. I hook it up for updates and what not.

Question about internet connection sharing. Do I have to change some setting in order to allow 2 computers to be on at the same time? I had a network some time ago and everything worked fine. I just set up this new netowrk and when the laptop is on the internet, the PC cant connect. I repair the connection on the PC and the laptop goes off the internet.

Got three desktops wired through a router, with one acting as my Web Server / VPN / Remote Desktop tunnel into the network when I'm not at home.

Since it's AT, I guess I should have expected only 4% to NOT have a home network. Wonder what the percentages woudl be like for the mass public though.... hmm.
