Note If you originally logged on as an administrator to begin Setup, make sure that
you log on by using the same account after you restart your computer.

Important If you want to share a broadband Internet connection on your network, it is
recommended that you set up a network that uses a base station, gateway, or router. If
you choose not to set up a base station on your network, you should set up security
features on the computer that is sharing the Internet connection. If you have
Windows XP, you can use Internet Connection Firewall to help provide such security. If
you don’t have Windows XP, be sure to use other measures to help provide a security
layer between your network and the Internet. For more information about security, see
“Making Your Network More Secure” in Chapter 4.
