I've done a few basic things like get my PCs connected to a router, but never really had much luck setting up a network so my PCs could see each other. Managed it once in XP but now I have W7, Vista and XP machines AND a PS3.
As well as a few obvious things, some PCs are specifically for work & testing and I'm wondering if they should be in some sub-network which can see each other but not the internet for instance.
I don't want to be a sys-admin, just know a few basics. Anyone know good online guides because when I try to do it I normally end up with things half-working in a just-about-usable state before getting frustrated and giving up! I am sure setting things up properly would save me some time in the long run.
