Solve : Setting up home network help? |
|
Answer» Hello 1. SneakerNet. If you need to transfer files immediately, the old "SneakerNet" works well with a USB thumb drive (aka flash drive). Write the required files to a USB device, put on your sneakers, walk it over to the other computer, and read the files from the USB device. But that wasn't your question... No it wasn't Quote from: dahlarbear on February 13, 2008, 02:48:42 AM 2. I understand that you want to share files between computers. It's not clear from your description whether you have a "Local Area Network (LAN)", "file sharing", or "wireless connectivity" problem. I'm glad that you understand, makes communicating much easier. You sound like an AOL customer services representative, are you? Quote from: dahlarbear on February 13, 2008, 02:48:42 AM 3. I'm assuming this is a home network. Yes, the topic title does read "Setting up HOME NETWORK help" afterall. Quote from: dahlarbear on February 13, 2008, 02:48:42 AM What is your network configuration? I'm using a Speedtouch ST585v6sl wireless router connected via ethernet to my desktop & wireless to laptop. Quote from: dahlarbear on February 13, 2008, 02:48:42 AM 4. Windows XP Home uses "simple" file sharing. Windows XP Professional uses either "simple" or "advanced" file sharing. I believe you should set it to "simple" if you want to share back and forth with the Windows XP Home computer. Because you used the Wizard (and they never reveal their secrets), I don't know what it was trying to do... But it can be setup manually. How do I set it? my original post did ask if someone can 'walk me through it'. Quote from: dahlarbear on February 13, 2008, 02:48:42 AM 5. If you want to do some reading, here are some Microsoft documents on the subject. No, I don't. Thanks for your 'help'.You might want to look at the documents that were posted by dahlarbear. They are a good place to start to understand how to get this working. In general you want to enable file sharing on both machines than make sure that they are in the same work group. You will have to check your firewall settings to be sure that it isn't blocking access to each machine. The details of how to do this are in the documents posted by dahlarbear. Give it a try and if you RUN into errors come back here and post them. We will help you troubleshoot them. There are also some great tutorials on how to set up your network. Here are a few i have used to help me. Alos try google. - http://ihome-wireless-network.com - http://www.home-network-help.com/ |

Are those internal modems, and are you on DIAL-up? Why two modems?Make and model of modem(s)?the problem was the modem was not functional it is one modem and i don't know if it was the correct one when i looked at it the computer has never been connected to the internet the person that gave it to my friend said he went through the cable company for the internet and connected the box to the computer. the modem looks like it should be dial up it has a phone jack in the back of it i ran a program called pc wizard and it never listed the modem Hold on. How does your friend connect to internet? He uses the modem? What is the model of the modem? (Rob asked you and you didn't answer...) i don't know the model NUMBER i unistalled it through the computer and now it makes me choose from a list someone told me that there was a program called siwi where can i download it from anyone know PLEASE use proper punctuation. You posts are extremely hard to read as all the sentences run into each other. Alan <>< my friend has never connected to the modem. the computer does not detect the modem since i was told to uninstall it. the operating system is windows xp what do i need to do the wizard does not detect the modem it makes me choose from a list and how can i tell which one is right. i do not remember the one that was not working it is a dial up has a place in the back of the card for a phone cord.

After its done do a final reboot and than open the device manager and see what state the modem is set at. Does it have a red X or a yellow question mark? If not try to use it to connect to your ISP i can not open the case my friend does not want to do that he is afraid it will mess up the computer how can i get the computer to detect the modem?Bring it to a computer repair shop. |

Solve : A usb connector disables my internet?? |
|
Answer» I don't KNOW if this exactly the best place to put this but, up until recently, I USED a usb connector to connect to my Wii gaming console. But now, when I connect it, it DISABLES my internet service. The nintendo tech's told me to find my default gateway and change it, that it would be a xxx.xxx.x.x number, but I see a xx.xxx.xxx.x number instead. I don't know how to change it because I use a modem and a pci card built into the back of my processor to connect to the internet. I have a wireless router, but for WHATEVER reason I can connect without it. And I have tried using it only just so it's known. I really need some HELP. You'll have to forgive me but from what I read above I don't fully understand the issue. Some additional questiosn that should help us help you. |

Answer» why was my netgear mimo faster by far than my new belkin mimo on my ps3?Could distance or bandwidth USAGE be a factor?No. Both were in the same spot and nothing else being used at the time. Youtube songs on the netgear would download in about 20 seconds. On the belkin probably 3 minutes.check your SETTINGS. It could be that the belkin unit defaults to a slower wifi SIGNAL. You MIGHT have to turn on the higher speeds.I'll give that a try. |

Solve : Setting up a network using Microsoft Business Server? |
|
Answer» I work in an office which is about to get a new system in on our computers.. Windows XP Pro(fessional?) Box, what exactly is this?A computer running Windows XP Professional Quote from: ace11 on June 03, 2008, 03:25:55 PM By the Way, this pack is going to be on approx' 7 or 8 computers, which i haven't had networked yet (although i'm led to believe that this isn't the most difficult of jobs)According to the requirements you posted, just about any computer running Windows XP Professional can be set up as the conveyancelink server. Cheers, much appreciated. I seem to have misunderstood it and interpreted it as 'Windows XP Pro' AND 'a small business server;' not one or the other. Now the only problem is to network the 8 or 9 PCs. How difficult a job is this? Is there anywhere(ie. a website) you could refer me to for step by step instructions on how to do this, or even explain in basic terms what i would need to do?How is your network set up now? Is it a workgroup or domain? Is there a requirement for the software?To be honest, I strongly recommend looking at hiring a professional to at least get the network setup and running for you at this point. You'll save a lot of time and effort in the long run by having things done right the first time. You are clearly inexperienced (no offense to you, but you are.) and that means you WILL miss some things and it will take you 5 times as long to get the network setup as it would a pro. If that's not an option for you then be prepared to do a lot of reading and a lot of troubleshooting to get everything working.ace11, you'll only need a switch with more ports than computers. Try to find a high quality one. I assumed you want to connect into network using wires, that means ethernet cables. I also assumed that those computers need cables shorter than 100 meters, they are not further than 100 meters from the switch/router. To have internet connectivity on all those computers you need a cheap router if you don't need to have many simultaneous transfers. When I say cheap I don't mean a 20 dollars router, a "for home" router. A "pro" router and a good quality switch. Please see Cisco offer for example. I agree with TheEmperor. |

Solve : Remote access? |
|
Answer» I want to know how can i access remote computer.Why? Nothing devious I hope...Quote from: Carbon Dudeoxide on May 30, 2008, 04:36:50 AM Why? Nothing devious I hope... I want to learn , how to access remote computer.Remote access is simple.in as much your pc and the remote pc are running the same OS . Assuming you want to posses or WORK on another persons system on a network. You have to first enable remote connection on your system and the intended remote system.loraandbush, this is a most basic question. Is this a homework? Please tell me it isn't. To access a remote computer: it depends on the type of service you wish to access. If you want to PING that computer, if there is no FIREWALL that blocks ICMP transfers, issue the ping command and you accessed that remote computer. You need the remote computer IP. This was an example. It answers your question? You may want to access a remote computer to see it's shares, a web page (if it is a web server), a ftp server, a mail server etc |

Solve : How to access Router settings?? |
|
Answer» How to access Router settings? Change the "Basic transmission" to 1-2 mbps, and the TX rate to 2mbps. This is typically done by LOGGING in to the router's setup UTILITY, click on the "Wireless Tab," and then the "Advanced Wireless Settings" sub-tab directly below it.How exactly do I do this? I'm using a linksys WRT54G with windows XPOh, and while you're in the router, change the PASSWORD from the DEFAULT "admin" or "password." Anyone who WANTS to attack your router will try those first!I mean like "HOW" do I do this. Like from my PC???You open your browser, and type in: http://192.168.1.1 in address bar. |

Solve : Printer Replicates/Duplicates Itself? |
|
Answer» Haven't found any documentation on the net about this problem so I turn to those of you in this forum. I've made a Workgroup of my desktop and laptop. The desktop is the "HOST". An HP Officejet 5500 All-In-One printer is attached directly to the desktop with USB. Initially after networking my 2 computers, I'm able to print a couple of times from either computer then the printer starts making copies of itself! For example, instead of just displaying "HP officejet..." in the Printers and Faxes folder, I end up with "HP office jet... (copy 1)", then copy 2, etc.----then magically the system checks the latest "copy" as the designated printer. The end result is I'm not able to print from either computer. The ports listed for each of the desktop "printers" is USB0001, Virtual..." At the moment the port listed for the printer (and all its copies) on the laptop is "Local". It's a mess. Also the printer keeps reinstalling itself over and over without my direction. Why does the printer have to make copies of itself and act so weird just because it's networked. How do I make the printer stop duplicating and reinstalling itself? Have you run a virus/spyware scan since this started? Alan <>< Yes, AVG Anti-Spyware is installed on both my laptop and desktop. Every scan always reports "no viruses". I have wondered about that though. I also wonder if the problem could be that I initially checked "SHARE this printer" on the laptop (client). I believe that should only be checked for the printer on the desktop (host). STILL trying to figure it out. Thanks for your response to my question.Software error. Try removing all instances of the printer drivers, using the uninstall feature if there is one. Then reinstall using the latest drivers downloaded from the manufacturer's website.I was asked by a friend who owns a HP Laptop to fix this problem with his HP C4200, The first try was to remove all copies of the printer and RE-INSTALL drivers. It worked for a week, and then the old problem came back. I attached a CANON all-in-one to it and loaded the drivers (4-times - - - I hate VISTA!). The Canon NEVER duplicated itself, even when I deliberately attached it through all the available USB ports. On Microsoft, this problem is attributed to VISTA by HP, but I believe that HP IS THE PROBLEM, and they won't own up to it...they pass it off as being a OS problem. It appears that ALL users with this problem are exeperiencing it from HP all-in-one printers. |

Solve : Can't Connect to IIS from Another Computer? |
|
Answer» I have IIS (v. 5.1) running on my computer. I can access it fine from my computer or another computer on my network but can't access it from a computer over the internet. I have disabled my firewall on Windows XP and forwarded the port from my router but the connection still TIMES out. Connection TIMEOUT is set to 900 seconds. I made sure not to USE the 192.168.1.xxx IP I get from ipconfig and am using the IP address given by whatismyip.com. I am testing it by using a proxy to attempt to access that IP. I also had a friend use his computer to try to access it and it came up blank. HELP is greatly appreciated.Nevermind. I got it to work. I changed the port to port 82 and added exceptions for port 82 on the firewalls. I don't KNOW why that made a difference, but it did. |

Solve : Internet Access but no Network Access? |
|
Answer» I'm running two machines, one XP Pro machine hardwired to the router, and one XP Home machine connected to the same router wirelessly. Both machines are on the same workgroup in the same subnet and can access the internet. The hardwired box is able to ping itself and the wireless box. The wireless box can ping itself, but not the hardwired box. Both computers have the same file sharing settings. The hardwired box has its Windows Firewall disabled, and the wireless box has the File and Printer Sharing exception enabled in the Windows Firewall settings. Disabling the Windows Firewall on the wireless box has no effect. The wireless box cannot view its own workgroup. In User Accounts (available from Control Panel-User Accounts) the Guest account is off by default. However this setting only applies to the ability to log on the local computer using the Guest account. Simple file sharing relies on guest access to shared folders and printers. To verify that the Guest account is active for network access, do the following: 4. Cannot see all of my workgroup computers. a. All in the same workgroup b. "File and printer sharing" enabled (otherwise they won't show) c. Have a common network protocol (e.g. TCP/IP over NetBIOS) d. At least one (wired) has "Computer Browser" service enabled and started e. Computer browser needs time to discover and build list of workgroup computers. 5. Reference(s). If you're impatient, it's OK to start with the "Troubleshooting" documents first: Troubleshooting File and Printer Sharing in Microsoft Windows XP File and Printer Sharing with Microsoft Windows Troubleshooting Computer Browsing on SOHO Networks with Microsoft Windows Computer Browsing for SOHO Networks with Microsoft Windows Why Can't I See My Computer on the Network?Sorry about my late REPLY. I've been out-of-town for the past couple of weeks. I went exploring in my services manager, and I found that the Computer Browser and the Server services were both disabled. I re-enabled them (set to "manual"), and now I can browse the network just as before. I wonder, though, what disabled them... Anyway, thanks for the help! PROBLEM status: SOLVED |

Answer» HI, Im Gayan from sri lanka, im working for for construction company. curently i have server 2003 domain CONTROLER. we are have 5more networks in our office building. most of them are workgroupe and those networks are interconnected. actualy my problem is other workgroupe users can access my domain user shares without providing any username & password. so i wanted to restric other workgroupe users to access of my domain users shares. Best Regards, GayanDo you have AD setup on the 2003 server? How do you share a file / files on the sever? do you just allow anyone to access the files or only authenticated users ? Cheers I think If you didn't install Active Directory,your server is STANDALONE server.so you should install AD. green hi, i have installed an AD with server 2003 R2 and i have SHRED it with relevant user rights. but others can access those files Thanks,The guest user is allowed to access shares. Disable the "Guest" account.Yes , Have you check the guest account active for network connections in user account? The Guest account is off by default. However this setting only applies to the ability to log on the local computer using the Guest account. Simple file sharing relies on guest access to shared folders and printers. To verify that the Guest account is active for network access.So I would try in the COMMAND Prompt window, type net user guest, and then press ENTER. If the account is active, a line appears in the output of the command that states Account active Yes. best regards, green |

Solve : Help I can't view our video? |
|
Answer» We uploaded a flash video on our website with an embedded player to our server. Have done 9 shows so far and no problems. Now on our 10Th show everyone can see our video but our router is blocking it . It downloads or buffers maybe 20mb of a 100 mb video then stops. We unhooked the router and hooked 1 computer to our cable modem and behold our video will play but when the router is back in place it again gets stopped part way through. We have replaced the router with first a brand new SMC router and again with a D-Link router both did not solve the problem. The video plays fine locally on our network but once it is uploaded we can't view it but we have checked around and others including our ISP and our server people can see it on our website. Is this a coding or port problem coming back at our router or a security issue coming back at our router ? Help please !!! Really embarrassing when clients come to our office and we can't show them our work. The website is www.peopleinconnection.com Check it out. If with the computer directly connected to internet it works fine and with router it does not work, than the problem is on the router (router SETTINGS or router MALFUNCTIONING). |

Solve : To view the status of print job? |
|
Answer» I am working in company , in which intranet had been used , i want know the status print job given by me .and i also want know the priority given to print job.....and i have another one doubt ,why intranet speed is always 100 mbps .I think we need some more information here. What print job are we talking about? ...and i have another one doubt ,why intranet speed is always 100 mbps .I'm not exactly sure but this is something to do with your LAN Cable (the cable you use to connect to the internet). 100mbs is the speed your computer is CONNECTED to the router/modem.If you are using a NETWORKED printer on another computer, the print job info is available on that computer. If the printer is a stand alone networked printer, it may have a built in display or a web interface to check. Talk to your system administrator. As for your network card, 100 mbps is the top speed available to all the relevant devices, not the speed you are actually getting at any given second. It basically only means that you are part of a 10/100 ethernet network. The devices include your router, nic on the computer, and the cat 5 or 6 cable you are using. you could have a gig card in the computer, but if your router, or cable, or some other device on your segment (that your computer communicates with directly, such as a switch or hub) is 10/100, that is your highest speed. Hope this helped.Quote from: knssaran on JUNE 10, 2008, 11:44:46 PM I am working in company , in which intranet had been used , i want know the status print job given by me .and i also want know the priority given to print job.....and i have another one doubt ,why intranet speed is always 100 mbps .

Solve : internal clock not synching with Server 2003 HELP? |
|
Answer» Hi all: I am a newbie, so sorry if this question has been asked before. I manage a small computer network that has a varied OS's I currently have a Windows 2000 machine that will not let me connect to the server because it says that the internal clock has a different time than the server, contact the system admin? I can't EVEN log on to the computer LOCALLY because i don't know the admin password.....HELP anyone! Thanks BobbiYou'll need to figure out the local password and change the time.Since it's win2k you could try to start in the recovery console. It'll give you a command prompt. There you can use the following command to change the time: or he could ask the computer administrator, who probably already fixed it, as the op hasn't replied since he created the topic a month ago.You're right! I never check post dates. I will start doing that. Thanks for pointing that out.thanks |

Solve : Disappearing LAN network?? |
|
Answer» TWO weeks ago I had high speed internet installed. It consists of an ANTENNA on our roof that picks up the SIGNAL and a POE adapter pulled into the outlet. Within the first two weeks, the POE adapter has BLOWN out 4 times. The LAN network on my laptop disappeared and can't be reinstalled. I purchased a wireless router and was able to get a connection through that. Now today, POE adapter is not working again and I'm not able to get any power to my wireless router. The internet PROVIDER is claiming that it's not their equipment, but I find it strange that all this has happened since being installed........Any advise?Tell them to come out and fix it or pull it out so you can go with another vendor. What do you mean by the poe adapter has blown out? do you have many power surges or brownouts? it's possible the power being supplied to the poe adapter isn't of the best quality. you might want to consider buying a small ups to ensure good power. |

Solve : Passive and Active Infrastructure? |
|
Answer» Hello! So far, Indian telecom companies were permitted to share only passive infrastructure such as towers, repeaters, shelters and generators. Active infrastructure sharing will allow operators to use all key electronic components including ANTENNAS, feeder cables, nodes, radio access network, transmission systems and backhaul, with the exception of spectrum. ET had reported about DoT giving its nod to the active infrastructure sharing policy in its edition date February 21. Now, this is wireless, I know...I'm still looking... Another article: http://voicendata.ciol.com/content/broadband/108050107.asp From this article: Quote Passive infrastructure sharing refers to sharing of physical sites, buildings, shelters, towers, power supply, and battery backup. From wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecom_infrastructure_sharing Quote Passive Infrastructure Sharing Passive Infrastructure sharing is nothing but sharing non-electronic infrastructure at cell site. Passive Infrastructure is becoming popular in telecom industry world wide. Every reference I found was for wireless. I don't know if these concepts apply to other forms of networks, but I suppose they could, just as well. |

Answer» Quote from: Carbon Dudeoxide on June 09, 2008, 08:35:52 PM Friendster LOOKS like a Facebook type site. Is it possible the sites are blocked? Friendster was actually the leading social networking site for teens until MySpace became popular.Quote from: CBMatt on June 11, 2008, 04:05:48 AM Quote from: Carbon Dudeoxide on June 09, 2008, 08:35:52 PMYeah...i'm not into sites like Myspace or Facebook, ect...Friendster looks like a Facebook type site. Is it possible the sites are blocked? I honestly don't see the point but that's my opinion. Well, the ways these sites are used are a bit silly to me. But I find it handy to be able to KEEP in touch with people from high school without actually having to TALK to them. And because everyone and their grandma has MySpace, it's really easy to find people, even if you haven't spoken to them in years. It's also useful for sending out invitations or for making plans with people. Perhaps I like this because I'm a bit of a night owl, so it allows me to ask someone a question or tell them something at ridiculous hours of the night (like right now) without having to worry about waking them up and without having to worry about me forgetting it. Under all of the glitz, glamour, top friends, and teenie boppers...it actually has its practical uses.Quote so it allows me to ask someone a question or tell them something at ridiculous hours of the night (like right now)What are you doing up at 4:20AM??? A month ago, I created a Facebook account, went on for about 5 minutes and deactivated it. About a week ago, I reactivated the account by the request of my friend. He made me fill out my personal information and get more friends (I had only two). Now, by mistake, I have 149 friends (quite a few I don't even know). Haven't been on since.Nice work! CONGRATS!
