I have just registered to The Site and im New One here. I hope Best for All of You. Here i m to
discuss with you some thing about Internet sharing on local area network.. I have a network of 10
pcs in my office.. we provide internet facility on 10 systems though a http page logon system.. The
Intenet is provided by a main server running Linux operating system.. All Authentication is done
from that server having ip 10.0.0.1 Other 10 systems get IP's through DHCP as...

Hey boys and girls! this is my first post on these boards so please be nice 2 me! I have
recently purchased a SMC Wireless route and its working fine! My only question is: Is it
possible to make a network over the router, or can it only be used to route the internet to other
computers! I would like to share files on my main computer with other computers in my home
network and havnt been successful in finding a way to do so yet! Any help would be apriciated
greatfuly! Mentalsatan (Aaron)...

Does anyone know how I would be able to change my MTU, Maximum Trasmitting Units on a Wireless
networking router. In particularly a Linksys super-g Router. I need to know to connect my xbox
360 to the network. Thanks, CoLDFuSIoN...

When dialup was common, I heard about people connecting two phone lines so it was faster. Could I do
that with broadband, the router delivers 12mbps, but I get about 2.5, and I have a extra cable....

All those Win XP Home users who have looked at the "increase your internet connection by 20%" and
have been disappointed well I have found the answere. The bandwith limiter is a service known as
"bits" or "Background Intelligent Transfer Service". If you disable this your connection will
increase....

I don't know if that is the right title but here goes. The computer I'm on is connected to
the internet via dial-up and has a printer connected to it. My computer has no internet connection,
but has many graphics programs and things that I would like to transfer the the internet connected
computer. I had the computers networked when I had highspeed internet and a cable modem, but
I'm not sure how to network them now that their both not on the internet. So my question is,
how do I network these two computers? (I know it's probably very simple)...

So i have 12 computers i just bought, all with XP Pro, and i need to connect 6 of them to the
internet, and not the other 6. but they all need to be on the network. so how do i go about doing
this? i've not recieved clear answers on this from anyone i've asked. how can i prevent some
of the computers from accessing the internet through the always on connection, but permit them to
communicate with each other over the network? is there a program available, or is it possible to do
it simply through the registry and windows settings? any help or advice is much appr...

So..in the picture below you can see the schematic I made. The internet enters in the first PC thru
the DSL box , and I wanna connect the internet PC with the other PC's with a giga lan speed. For
that I think I will need a second Lan card because the internet PC only has one lan port. Next I use
the Dlink 8 ports Switch. But I don't want the internet go from the internet PC thru the Dlink
and to the other PC's. Because I don't wanna put firewall and stuff on the other PC's.
But maybe with this setup, the internet will just naturally stop at the firs...

Usually, to integrate WiFi capabilities into an existing LAN involves interfacing a wireless router
with an existing LAN and configuring it as an access point. If it is meant for free public use, then
it may not be necessary to encrypt the transmission, otherwise it is advisable to encrypt it with at
leas a 64-bit WEP (Wireless Encryption Protocol) key. Depending on the gain in db of the attached
antenna, the radius of wireless coverage can vary from 250meters to close to 450meters. Now comes
the stage where we need to extend the coverage of the wireless transmission, t...

So my question is this, I have a desktop pc connected to the net through a wired modem. I also have
a free (as in not used) wireless network adapter build in to the desktop pc which I want to share
with a laptop. The goal is to have a live internet connection on the laptop. What are the steps I
need to follow to achive my goal. Thnx in advance EDIT: additional info, I have winxp installed on
the desktop and windows vista installed on the laptop...

My ISP is quite special. I have a cable 512k connection from them, but it's shared between 10
users and in addition they won't troubleshoot it for me if i have more than one computer
connected. No wonder the IT infrastructure is 4th rate here. Anyways, my problem is that I
can't open any web page whatsoever. It just returns a page not found. But if i type in the IP
address, the page loads fine. This is something I don't understand much about, and I'm not
getting any help from my service provider for the above mentioned reasons. Is this a software pro...

Hey, Here's a weird problem I've encountered. On my test server running CentOS and Apache2
w/ the Apache2 Manual installed and accessible from the web, everything seems fine. So I access it
via my home network on which the server is located and the manual loads like I'm on a 56K
connection. To give you an idea of the speed, it's just a tweak faster than using MySpace during
peak hours. MySpace is still slower than my server though. But today at school, I try it and the
thing loads like it was on an OC-93 fiber line at a data center! AND- if I try to...

I like to share our broadband modem and access Internet from the second computer. The 2 computers
are not connected to each other. I am considering setting up a network of these 2 computers using a
wireless access point and 2 wireless network cards. I assume the access point and the braodband
modem will be attached to one of the computers and the other computer will be able to access
Internet through the access point. Is there any other way of sharing the modem eg. using adapters/
extensions, like sharing the telephone line? ...

Hi, I recently installed RealVNC so that I can look after a remote computer on my network. I have
installed the server on computer a and the client on computer b! The server is running in
service mode and has been setup with a password for authentication. My first problem comes when I
try to connect from B to A. I get different errors messages including Connection Timed Out and
Connection Refused. I have unblocked the ports on windows firewall (ports 5920 and 5820 (thats what
im using)) and opened a series of ports on my router to allow access. Using command prompt ...

Just took a look at one of my user's computer and found a very strange problem. For some odd
reason, he must sign into AOL in order to use his internet. I would understand if this is required
if he is using AOL as his main connection, but he is using a dedicated cable service line. The same
thing is happening to his other computer (requires him to sign onto AOL first before he can
connect). After playing around with it for a while, Internet Explorer connected without
AOHell's assistance. I made sure AOL was completely signed off and tried a few more websites and...

I am new to linux and just installed Kubuntu. I have windows XP on my master primary hard drive and
Kubuntu is installed on my slave drive. Everything seems to work great except that I cannot connect
to the internet when I boot into Kubuntu (I also tried Ubuntu). I am thinking maybe it has something
to do with ethernet adapter driver. I can connect just fine in windows, so I know that the actual
hardware isn't messed up. Windows uses the driver for Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Ethernet NIC.
I looked through google and help forum threads and it seems others have h...

Today I was trying to setup shared internet for someone and was having lots of problems with it.
They are using AOL DSL and had their ISP's modem. They have a Linksys router (forgot what
model...WRT something) and I tried almost everything I can think of to no avail. Here is the
problem. The modem connects to the computer using USB ONLY. It has an ethernet adapter in the back
of the modem but it will not work (needs the USB either way). After playing around more for over an
hour, I came to some "conclusion" that the other machines need the modem to be connected via ...

I lived in Indonesia with less knowledges that i had, I am having a chance to bulding a networking ,
specially in wireless technology. It would make 8 clients using Win Xp and a Server. Anyone would
help me make this thing came true, What kind of PC (Specifications) for the Cliants should I have,
and others equipments. I am trying to build in an office, so. the range would be just beyond 100
meters. Thanks for your attention and good coorporation. Looking forward to it. Regards Farhan

Hi all, i have just recently upgraded my home network to a wireless connection. I have a older
laptop (maybe 2 years) that doesn't have a built in wireless lan. i am trying to work out what i
should do for a wireless lan adapter. Should i get a USB connector or a PCMCIA card? i borrowed a
friends PCMCIA card and put it into my laptop so see how the range was! it was really, really
bad! my friend also lent me his psp to test the signal sstrength. The PSP could get 100%
strength while the PCMCIA card could get nothing. does this mean that the PCMCIA cards are...

I have 3 PC's all XP, networked. All 3 have internet access and are part of the same work
group. PC #1 can access shared folders on PC#2 and PC#3. PC #2 can only access shared folders on
PC #1. PC #3 can only access shared folders on PC #1. PC #2 and 3 can't access shared folders
on each other. Any thoughts?...

Lately, my computer's internet has been getting slower and slower. When I check the connections
established in all my programs, there is my usual programs running. When I test the connection on
another computer, it was also slow. The ping rate between my computer and the router is <1ms, so I
don't think its the router problem. From 500 kb/s, it changed to 300kb/s, 100 kb/s and now its
30kb/s. Could it be a problem with the ISP?...

When I am on a Unix system or on a Linux system, I use a configuration file named ".netrc", which
stores my most used ftp settings. Is there an equivalent for ftp under Windows XP ? I tried
testing/guessing, I failed, it's not net.rc nor .netrc. It's not horribly necessary, but I
would like to know what replaces .netrc on a Windows machine....

Just bought a new Laptop and would like to configure it to connect to my PC for File Sharing and
Internet . My PC Details are as follows : Connects to the Internet via a ADSL USB Modem. Cellpipe
20A USB modem. PC has 1 Dlink Network Card (Internal). My Laptop Details: Its a Compaq Presario
V5233EA with a built in network card and wifi. I am completely new to the networking scene so
please tell me what extra information you need. I have a Cross over cable and i have connected both
the computers and it connects. Just that the first time it showed me that it was u...

I'm working on a new comany (Medium buisness) as Computer tecnician. After some weeks of work
i've decided along with my superiors to set a DataServer ( Store Data ) and a Internet server.
Well my first step was to buy a Pentium 4 Dual Core 3.0 with 2Gb Ram and a SATADRIVE with 250 GB.
Now i'm "stuck", because i dont know witch is the best way to set a internet server. I mean the
main objective is a full control of websites access, using a proxy and a repository for Antivirus,
software and other stuff. Well, maybe you with your all experience on this kind of ...

Of all things, and a tribute once again to the absolutely insanely primitive state of technology in
pakistan, my stupid cable modem works fine if it's all by itself, or with very simple ICS
enabled. However: if all i want to do is browse the internet, i can do it from any computer on the
network. But if i want to chat, or use outlook express, i've got to set a gateway on the ICS
computer. And the minute i do that, it shuts off the internet. As soon as i remove the gateway, the
internet browses fine again. It hadn't done this before, up till a couple days ago...

Since I haven't had any luck with my internet connection sharing problem which i posted
previously, due to the terrible quality of service here, i've decided a second connection may be
the answer. I won't give up the cable because i also have 2 phone lines on it, plus cable tv,
but I will get a 256K DSL connection in addition to my 128K cable. The benefits of this will be that
it's double, plus i'll get the full 256K connection for myself without having to share it
with other users. (I explained previously about the 10to1 ratio used here in pakistan)...

What Im looking to do: Hook up 2 computers (one upstairs and one down) and my xbox live. 1) Is
wireed networking significantly faster than normal networking? 2) Can't you get special adapters
and have your network only give info through those (to prevent network hacking)? 3) With wireless
networking would you have to buy adapters for each computer - I think some wireless routers require
it. 4) If I would need those how would that work with xbox live? 5) Any other info on these sorts of
products or if there is any you want to suggest? I use adelphia.net isp & when i...

Well I hope this question has not been asked too many times but I am having problems getting two XP
machines to do file sharing. Actually this might not be the run of the mill question as I have
already checked everything I know and I am still dead in the water. Here is my setup. Setup: PC1,
Win XP, my main computer and the one that most likely has the problem PC2, WinXP Both computers are
connected via a Linksys firewall/router and then connected to the Net via the router Problem: PC1
is able to see files on PC2 but not vice versa. While on PC2 you can type PC1 add...
