That's the way it is supposed to work. When you connect to the home
LAN, the laptop looks for its Domain. Of course it doesn't find. it.
When you login to your laptop, and then connect to the shares using a
home LAN id, you are authenticating to the home LAN for those devices.
You are not logged into the home LAN. I'd go with that solution.

The third one is interesting. I don't at the moment see how logging on
to the work LAN authenticates you for the home LAN.

See your sister-in-law and raise my mother-in-law.

Cheers,

The complete lack of evidence is the surest sign
