Hi guys, thx for your replies. I'm using copper connectors, just like those used in electrical installations. It looks like I'll take a picture of the splicing and post it! It will be simpler! By the way, I have set both PCs on the lowest possible speed, 10Mbps Half duplex, hoping that it...

Hi all, I'm having problems rewiring a straight patch cable of around 50m long. It was cut in half, and now, I'd like to reconnect it. Is there any special consideration I should take into account? I've rewired it and mapped all wires correctly - I've followed all kinds of instructions...

bcastner, I've used static IP coz I'm playing games on the LAN, and they use TCP/IP. Using DHCP, I can't find each other coz their IP addresses given by the DHCP service running on the PC are totally different and can't communicate with each other. Using the link above, I've set the DNS and...

Hi all, I've just set up a LAN at home, and on 1 PC, I've got a modem. I've gone through the Windows 2000 Pro help, and it says Internet Connection Sharing is possible. It has given guidelines, but I still cannot connect to the Internet via the LAN. I've set my network address to DHCP, I've...

thedaver, I had a firewall (PCCilling2002) on! Yeah! Thanks! Finally, the world of LAN games opens before me! :)

I have 2 PC (ASUS and Gigabyte motberboard), Windows 2000 Pro installed on both. They both have onboard LAN. I've connected the 2 with a cross over cable. TCP/IP and NetBIOS are installed on both. TCP/IP is set up with static IP addresses, 172.18.50.1 and 172.18.50.2. I can browse using...
