computers on the internet cannot view the computers in an internal network.. so they access my computer via the router... but, my router's addres is 192.168.1.1 and there are many routers out there.. with the same addresses.. so how do the outside network distinguish my router ?

Simple. The 192.168.1.1 is your rotuers internal (LAN) network address, not the external (WAN). Your WAN address is what is unique to your router. NAT takes place inside the router to 'translate' your incoming WAN addressed packets to the LAN address that requested it.

So as I can tell from what you have said you created a web server (published, sounds like SBS). You then installed a router in front of the web server and now nobody can access your server?\n\nThe router is natting your single IP 24.55.64.247 to the 192.168.0.x network. That is it's job. What you will have to do is open the ports you want (80) and point them at the internal server which you say is not at 192.168.0.100. I would note two things, one you need to set the server to be static IP on the 192.168.0.x network (192.168.0.10) and point the opened ports to that IP. Two you are using a dynamic IP from Adelphia it looks like which means your going ot get a new IP every now and then so people will have a hard time finding your server and it is probably against Adelpha's TOS to run a server.\n\nYou can get around the dynamic IP issues by using dyndns.org.

The static IP address you used, is it routable?  If it is a 198.162.x.y or a 10.x.y.z, then it may not be, and this could be one problem.  Your router will likely be getting the address from the ISP, you are then likely connecting one or several computers to the router.  The router will be doing NAT to allow multiple computers using these private addresses to talk to the internet, but, unless you move your computer to a DMZ segment, or create a static route, NAT will not allow internet access to any of the computers behind the router.  If the cameras are all behind the router, then, you should be able to connect to all of them if they all have addresses that are on the same subnet - 198.162.1.2-10 for example.  If you are trying to get to the computer from the internet, then you will likely want to have a firewall router with VPN capability.  Then, you just VPN into the box, and viola!  Otherwise, anyone on the internet could get to your box and I don't think this is what you want.  Good luck!

It is hosted on different servers, we call them web-hosts.\nThese servers have 24x7 connection to the internet..so that websites can be accessed at all times. This is different from our home where we connect to the internet only when required. All the content of internet is distributed on diff servers..not on a single machine.\n\nwebsite addresses like yahoo.com and google.com are mapped using the DNS concept. read more about DNS here\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS

It sounds as though somebody's getting a "free ride" on your network...  if the building is shared, or adjoins other buildings, you may find somebody tapped into the cabling or your router...\n\nFirst, go and look at the router itself..  how many connections?  If there's more ports in use than there should be, unhook them one at a time...  if there's one that you can unplug without any of your computers going offline...  start tracing that cable..\n\nFailing that, you'll need to go into the admin pages on your router...  the first thing to do is to change the router management password, so that your "guests" can't undo your changes.  Now take a look and see who's connected.\nIf there are IP numbers that don't match any of your computers, that's a clue...\n\nJust blocking out those IP's will give you a temporary diagnostic...  as above, if there's one that you can shut off without losing your own connections, there's your problem.\nLong-term, that's not a good solution...  you'll need to get the MAC address for each of your computers, and then set up "MAC filtering" on the router, so that only your machines are permitted access.\n\nOnce you've identified the "rogue" connection, you can either just leave it dangling, or cut the connector off and twist all the wires together ... think of the hours of fun they'll have trying to sort that out...

An IP address has 4 parts XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX each part is a numeric value in the range of from 0 to 255. The first two pairs are usually referred to as the network portion and identify the network. The second two pairs are usually refferred to as the host portion and identify the individual computer within the specified network. The IP address is used in conjunction with a Subnet Mask. This tells us specifically which bits are being used for the network id and which bits are being used for the host id.\n\nThere is no area code mapping! An individual IP address could be anywhere in the world.\n\nThis is only a very brief introduction, if you want more information, take a TCP/IP course at your local college or technical school.

Well, start with the basics.  I assume you have a network cable plugged in and active?  So that you have a physical connection to the network and the internet?  If so, the second step is the TCP/IP settings on the network card.  Typically you don't let a server get a dynamic address through DHCP (so, if all the other computers can access the internet just fine, I assume they are getting dynamic addresses?)  Typically you use a static IP address for the server.  Check the properties on your local area connection to see if it is set to get it's address automatically.  Probably isn't.  For a simple fix, just set it to obtain an ip address automatically, then do ipconfig /release, then ipconfig /renew from a command prompt.  For a better fix, type in a static IP with all the proper information (address, subnet mask, default gateway, dns servers, etc.)

Not sure why you want to do that. Isn't it easier to let computer Y get internet access directly from the router? But if you insist to do it, first of all you must run in.routed on computer X, then configure eth1 using nonpublic network number, something like 192.168.0.0 or 10.0.0.0. Say let X have  10.10.10.1 and Y have 10.10.10.2 and you must set the default router on Y to use 10.10.10.1. The routed will let X to behave as a route for Y.  I wouldn't recommend this setup, unless you are trying to setup X as a firewall or a content filter for computer Y.\n\nHave fun!

What kind of router?   Your  router should have it's own DHCP server built into it's firmware which will assign a private IP number to each of it's ports.  Use the routers web interface [probably at 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1] to make sure DHCP is turned on. \n\nAfter that, at the computer not getting connected, ping 127.0.0.1 to make sure the NIC is working.  Still dead?  Swap cables around to test them...

Let's take this one step at a time starting with the Modem/Router issue.  When you connect the modem to the router you are using an RJ45 connection?  This should allow the router to connect to your ISP.\n\nNext you should be connecting your computer to the router, either wired or wireless.  I would start out wired with another RJ45 connection.\n\nYou said "I have been trying to set up one of my computers as a server"; what did you want this computer to do as a server?  Is this suppose to provide your intranet with IP information, DNS, sign on authentication, or are you planning it to host your web set to the world?  Each of these is a different function and do not effect your connecting the router and modem to the Internet.

Several possibilities:\n* You can stop the router from broadcasting the name of the network so that its existence won't be immediately obvious.\n* You can set a password for your router so that anyone who wants to connect will have to type in that password.\n* You can implement a MAC address filter so that only certain computers are allowed to connect. (A MAC address is a unique ID found in every network adapter. It will uniquely identify any computer.)\nAny or all of these can be used together or separately. Your router's documentation should explain how to do all these things.

How many IP address do you have assigned to you? If you only have one that might be your problem.\n\nIf you are running your computer through a router then I am afraid I am not able to help you.

Can your new computer access any of the other network computers?\n\nIt could be something simple like a firewall making the laptop  unaccessable by other computers. Pull your network off the internet, but leave the network active. Drop all your protection, firewalls, antivirus, etc and check again.\n\nIf you are running higher-end antivirus they have something like "internet security" that will really mess with a LAN.\n\nIf you can see the laptop on the network, but can't access it - I would begin by looking into the laptop security and permissons.

It mean some other computer on the network has the exact same address as your computer.  Contact your Network Admin so he can you give another IP address for your computer.

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.

If you can see that its found the wireless network, you would need to click on connect button on the window which appears telling you the wireless network its found within its range.\nThen depending on how you have configured your wireless router it would ask you to enter Network Key (WEP or WPA).\nOnce you enter this your laptop would be connected to the wireless network and obtain IP address and you would be up and running.\n\nHope this helps

check your IP  configuration it sounds like you need to make some adjustments.  The computers were never configured on a private network were they? How about the router have you configured that? See if the PC is getting assinged and IP address by the router. Go to start menu, select run, type cmd, then press ok, then in the dos window that opens type ipconfig and press enter.  Does it come back with your IP address, etc.? What does the default gateway say?
