i got a 20 m cable and i am sure that it works.also i have put the ip's correcty >n:b: the first pc gives the signal a net cable is plugged,unplugged,plugged......the other one it semm like not connected with a red x on the network connection

your question leaves too much to the imagination but one of the first things you need to know about is a crossover cable. This type of cable is required to connect a system to another system. Certain wires in this cable are paired with others in order to make them work correctly. You're most likely using a straight through cable.

The other computer must be on and functioning properly so it is "live" on the network. It has to be sending a signal.

No, the color makes no difference to the actual cable, it doesn't matter. Just connect your second computer to the spare cat5e wire and your router and you should be set.

Use your PC's network setup wizard and buy cat5e cables... but then again I am not very sure... somebody will hopefully give you a better, more detailed, and accurate answer. Good luck on this daunting task.

The ping requests are timing out. The computer is not getting a response back from the host computer fast enough. This can be caused by a series of possibilies. The first and the easiest to check is the cable going from one computer to the other. Simply by switching the cable one can check this. Two, the host computer isnt fast enough. The network card isn't working properly or a firewall setting or other software is conflicting. Three and still the same. Could be the network card, firewall or software pm the other computer. If this is a dial-up connection this is to be expected as the line cannot handle very much traffic and even one or two backround programs on both computer can "eat" all the bandwidth.If this is a high speed connection then simply installing a router.

OKay well first off, don't manually put in the ip information.  Instead allow the router to dish out the ips, and then you can tell the router to continually give whatever computer that specific ip.   As far as your net connection not lighting up in the wan port that's very odd.  What type of internet connection do you have?  DSL or Cable or something else?  I'd see what happens if you connect that device directly to a computer....  Make sure you have the latest firmware installed on the router....\n\nhopefully this helps.

Dont let your ISP BS you! I have seen many a case where there was an intemittant connection in cable lines as well as phone lines! If you are sure it aint on your end, tell them either to fix it or you will look for another provider.

start a direct video connection.. and see which ports are open to what IP addresses! (i've done it... but it is messy)

I've actually tried your proposed setup using a slightly scaled down setup i.e. with a main router that's connected to my ISP and a single client router that is connected to the main router. To be on the safe side, I used used a different private IP range (172.16.x.x and 192.168.x.x) for each router's DHCP pool. Donno what would happen if both routers use the same range...theoritically, I think they should work fine because the NATs shouldn't care what IP ranges are used on either side of each box.

Check the modem to see if there are still any DHCP address left for it to hand out. Check if the DHCP server can hand out IP addresses to the wired computers, not just to the wireless computers.\nCheck if you can have both a wireless and a wired connection at the same time (some modems will only allow one type of connection). Check if your network card is installed properly. Check if the cable is still good, swap it with a different cable if you can.

TCP/IP is probably not configured to connect to the internet on the machines that dont.  I am assuming this is on a network at your office or something like that, and if that is the case, you probably want to let their people mess with it, not you.  if its at home, make sure all of the internet connections gateway through your router.

if you're using XP, try resetting the tcp/ip. if it still does not work, you might have to do a regedit. call your ISP or pc manufacturer technical support,they can help you with that.

There's a piece of the puzzle missing... do you have dial-up? Broadband?\n\nIf you have broadband and you're getting poor results on only one of the computers, your router might have a control to set the priority from one port to another.  Check the port settings to see that they're appropriate.

[quote]\nCan I collaborate these 2 connections into one, and would that theoretically mean I could double the connection speed to 54Mbps x 2 = 108Mbps?\n[end quote]\n\nNo, i don't think it works that way. What i presume is that only one connection is active at a time since you have no control on what connection a program work. And btw, the speed of one wireless connection is far higher than what you get by your ISP.

You probably need to call your tech support about that problem..I run two computer's from a router all the time and both have equal speed

The first IP in the range is always the "name" of the network. So, All the rest are usable.\n\nThe usable range on the 200.10.10.64 network subnet would be 200.10.10.65 to 200.10.10.79\n\nAdded:\n\nRonin, I wondered about that, But I was thinking that only applied when the host section of the subnet was all binary 1's.  Maybe I was wrong.  I'll look it up again for my own information.

The first thing you have to do is identify if the problem is the cable network, or your computer. It is definitely not the modem if you have replaced that already. If you have a laptop or know someone who does, try plugging the laptop in to see if it does the same thing. I am willing to bet that it will, leaving the cable system as the cause. The problem is that there are many factors that could be causing the issue....bad cable, bad connectors, bad splitter.. you will probably have to have a technician come out. Make sure that all of your connectors are tight and not just halfway screwed on. Also make sure your cable splitter says 5 - 1,000 MHz (1 GHz).
