Hey, son. Can you help me figure out why the hell my work laptop won't connect to my home network?
Well, I don't know much of anything about networking, but I guess I could poke around and try random things which may or may not be a good idea.
Excellent eye! I've been playing with this for days, but never thought to look in "Network Settings" under Control Panel.
Hmm... you have no computer name or workgroup. Maybe set one of those? I just said, I really don't know what I'm doing here so it may be a bad idea...
One reboot later...
I can't log in to Windows. What the hell did you do?? Tell me how I'm supposed to fix it!
Uhhh... gotta go!
