This will take you to a page where you will be prompted to download software to connect to the server. Alternatively you can go to Start –> Networks and double click on the server name. To connect your computer to the server, log in to the computer that you wish to link to the home server, open an Internet browser, type or IP)/Connect in the address bar and hit Enter.
