Trouble
Shooting
Network Setting |
When there are several different networks from
my network IP. ( Ahead Three unit of IP is my network.
X.X.X )
example> Your computer A = 10.10.10.2 Same
network B = 10.10.10.3 Different network C,D = 10.10.20.3 , 10.10.20.4 Different
networks S
= 10.10.30.1 ~10.10.30.254
1)ping test to computer in different
network
On Dos command C:> ping 10.10.20.3
C:> ping 10.10.30.1 reply
should be arrived.
2) Different network 10.10.20.X and 10.10.30.X
(1) Setup -> network
tab , input 10.10.30 to different network . (2)
And you do not want to communicate not all 10.10.20.
network users. Just
only two 10.10.20.3 and 10.10.20.4 are my
concern. You
do not want to let 10.10.20 network users know my name. ->
Input two 10.10.20.3 , 10.10.20.4 ,and click
[+]. (3)
click to refresh network users.
* Of course you can also input 10.10.30 to
different network setting. But,
if do that, searching time , it takes long time.
So, If you want to communicate
with only a few people in different network, IP
function is useful. Then,
What should do In computer C and D?
input 10.10.10 and 10.10.30 to different network setting.
In S, 10.10.10.X -> different
network setting
10.10.20.3 and 10.10.20.4
-> IP Setting.
You can setup your Network with above functions.

Internet is OK,
but, no users list |
Since version from Window XP, use the Windows Firewall.
