Back up of my mind's knowledge about networking lol
Hi guest.
Just wanted to write a bit about networking of two computers, though i ain't a engineer, but still,
anyways......
let's read
Networking made simple
My Computer-> Properties-> Computer Name-> drharkawal1 for first computer
and drharkawal2 for second computer
In Windows 7-> Computer name, domain and workgroup settings-> change settings->system properties-> change-> computer name and workgroup
Get one thing very clear->
the name of computers should be different e.g harkawal1 for first computer and drharkawal2 for second computer,
and the workgroup should be same for both computers. this is very important.
Now we need crossover cable (ethernet)
we can get it very easily from computer shop.
Now connect the crossover cable in both computers.
Now go to network connections-> LAN(local area network)-> properties-> tcp/ip->
{{{{ although it is automated process, but still if things are not perfect-> go to tcp/ip-> use the following ip address->}}}}
fill ip address
***.***.1.1
for second computer
***.***.1.2
(***.*** means 3 digits of your choice)
subnet mask 255.255.255.0 or default should be okay
the subnet mask should be the same in both computers.
this is very important.
now restart both the computers and things should be good enough for networking of two computers.
This was for networking of two computer.
when i will buy third computer then probably i would be able to write about networking of more than two computers. lol
Thanks and regards
