LAN cable there is a limit but the longer it is the more noise it will make and loss it's information\n\nfirst of all do a Network wizard on your mian one thought your modem/router\n\nthen connect his and do a network wizard too. \n\nmakes sure ot select the option this computer connect to a resdential gatway or though another computer.\n\nthis should work..\n\nif not. \n\ncheck your ip on yoru friends computer\nif you don't know \nstart->run-Type in\ncmd \nblack screen pops out.\ntype in \nipconfig\n\nit will show your firneds computer\n\nif the ip does not resmele doesn't have a nything else than 192.0.0.1, \n\nyou might have to configure your router/modem/hub agian\n\n###############\nmight not be related,\nyou need to have a router if you want ot share internet, after a router u can get hub and share to more of your friends.\n\nMost internet provider usuall will give you a modem with a router with hub built in but charges xtra thans standard modem,\n\n\nthe router changes mask your internet ip and makes a local ip for your network so it can be shared.\n\na hub will not work.\n\ni already try once when me and my roomate want to see if a hub will replace a router for sharing internet(although it did work when you a 56k dailup sharing) and it didn't.

I really need some more details, but I will assume that you do not know if you have a connection or not.  You need to get to "My Network Places", in XP you will find it in the start menu and on 98 and older it should be on the desktop.  Right click on it and select properties.  It should bring up your possible connection, look for "local area connection" and once again right click on it and select properties.  Scroll down till you see "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" High light it and click on the button that says properties, this is the area you want.  Make sure everything will choose IP automatically.  It should also tell you if it has a IP address and what it is, if it does and it is on DHCP, go back to the "My Network Places" window again and right click on "local area connection" again, but this time choose the fix option.  hope that helps.\n\nJohn B.

make sure your ip is set to obtain automatically.  Also do not install any software just plug the modem directly to puter and obtain ip auto.  hope this helps....

More details. Are you both on the same network already? Are you both at home, within the distance reachable by a LAN cable? Are you both using the same Operating System?

hello ! it's about the router ... if it is a cheap one with basic NAT, you need to upgrade to a router with enhanced NAT capabilities. Sorry, there is no other solution ...

Enable the wireless card to accept connections.\n\nThat should be it. Also you have to have SP2 for Windows\nIt sorts out any wireless problems

if it's not connecting to a host, something's wrong with either the network connection, or the username and password provided are not right, double check that the username and password you're using are correct and try again
