Windows Vista
After establishing a connection to your network, Vista prompts you to select your network location: Home,
Work, Public location.
For our purposes, we will consider that you will be using your network at home, which will allow you as well as
other network users to view the computers present on the network (the “See and be seen” principle,
indispensable to be able to share folders, a printer and an ADSL connection).
Note: If you prefer to connect to a public hotspot, while you are in a railway station, for example, please refer
to the explanations provided by Windows Vista.
Windows Vista may not prompt you to select your network location at this point and select a public
location for you by default (this will typically be the case if you are already connected to a network). To
select another location, you must click the Customize link located opposite the name of your network in
the Wanadoo_AAAA (public network) zone of the Network and Sharing Center.
