TheFlash428 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 It sound like your LAN adapters are set to "obtain an IP address automatically", or by DHCP. If both computers are linked only to themselves, then I am guessing that there is no device assigning DHCP addresses. What you would want to do is go into the properties of each LAN adapter and set the IP address manually to set up a privat network. An example of such a configuration would be:Computer #1:IP address: 192.168.1.1Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1Computer #2IP address: 192.168.1.2Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0Default Gateway: 192.168.1.2(Keep in mind I'm assuming that these PC's are connected only to themselves, and that there are no servers or routers involved).One other problem you may encounter, however, is the fact that I believe in order to directly connect two PC's using a LAN connection, you would need to use a crossover cable as opposed to a standard ethernet cable (but I'm not 100% positive). One workaround to this issue would be to place a network hub (or switch) between the two computers. Any simple hub would work, e.g. Netgear; these are usually pretty inexpensive and can allow you attach multiple devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
