Default Network recognition won't stick....

I have set the network to Private.
I have set the gorup name to MSHOME on both.
I have set the Network Discovery to ON
Rebooted both computers and the wireless and the ADSL routers.
Waste of time!
After a reboot NEtwork Discovery is changed back to Custom resulting in the
loss of access to back up my files...
Then I have to set the Network Discovery to ON, before I am allowed to
backup.
Then after a reboot, it changes back to Cusotm again, and I have to change
the setteing once again before I can do my backuping the next time...

This is to put it mildly, annoying... frustrating...

Hi
You first have to set a solid file sharing system.
Do not use the Public Network but the regular Home/Work Network.
Make sure that the Software Firewall on each computer allows free local
traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall On, Vista/XP Native Firewall should
be Off, and the active Firewall has to adjusted to your Network IP numbers
on what is some time called the Trusted Zone (consult your 3rd Party
Firewall instructions.
General example,

Vista File and Printer Sharing-

When done hard reboot all network computers and the Router.

Hi...

I have this two pc's with Vista.
Between them I use SyncToy to, among other files, copy my Outlook 2007
PSF-file.

To get this to work I have to turn on Network Recognition in the Network
and sharing window. Else one pc can't communicate with the other.
But after every restart the network recognition is reset to user defined.
I have set all network sonnections to public, but still the setting is
reset at next restart.
I have set them to private networks, but no fix.

This is very annoying since Syntoy do not find the other pc without the
network recognition set to on....

What can I do to avvoid this resetting of the network recognition
settings at every restart?
