Firewalls -- you must uninstall them before installing
the network. Turning them off doesn't really stop them.
Once the network is installed you reinstall them (you'll
need them if you also use dial up).
Dialups -- Once you install the network, add dialup
connections on each laptop. You can do that from IE under
Tools/Options.
