How to Connect Two Windows 7 Computers On LAN Using Ethernet Cable

There are times when you want to transfer your important files and documents from one computer to another. Especially, if you are to manage multiple computers on your home network or a workgroup, transferring files between them becomes tedious. Though you can use the following alternatives to transfer data.

1. The mostly used media to transfer files or documents is removable disk (USB drive). But the drawback of the removable media is that if you want to transfer a large amount of data, you need to divide that in various part as the total data would not fit in the limited space of your USB drive. It is also slow comparatively with the hard disk.

2. You can use Dropbox to sync files across multiple computers. Dropbox is a great tool but it is useless with out an internet connection.

Hence, you should use a fast, reliable and all time available way. One of the best choice to transfer files between two Windows computers is connecting them with an Ethernet cable.

The Ethernet cable is nothing but a simple cable connected with RJ45 clips at both ends. Bu it comes with two different configuration.

1. Straight-through cable.

2. Crossover cable.

You can see the configuration diagram of both types from the following image.

Where the crossover cable can be used only for file transferring, the straight-through cable can be used in various purposes.

Here I will discuss how to connect two Windows computers on LAN though an Ethernet crossover cable and how to transfer files, folders, videos, pictures, images etc. between them.

Create a Home network using an Ethernet crossover cable

Things that you’ll need:

1. A crossover or straight-through cable. This time I am using the crossover cable.

2. Supported network card in both computer.

3. Both of the computers should have the Ethernet driver installed in it.

Configuring the computers

Below are the steps involved in configuring your computer to connect them on a LAN using Ethernet cable.

Step 1. In order to start the connection, you’ll have to assign different IP address for both computers. To change the IP address of your computers for the LAN connection, you should make changes in the LAN adapter settings.

• Open Control panel from the start menu and click on Network and Internet and click on Network and Sharing center.
• From the left sidebar, click on Change adapter settings.

  

• Under the Network connections window select the appropriate icon for your LAN adapter and right-click on it, then choose Properties.

• A Local Area Connection Properties box appears.

• Under the Network tab select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click on theProperties button.
• Now set the addresses as mentioned below in each computer and click OK.

At the first computer ( say, Computer 1):

IP address:       192.168.0.1

Subnet mask:  255.255.255.0

At the second computer ( say, Computer 2):

IP address:       192.168.0.2

Subnet mask:  255.255.255.0

Step 2. Now, connect one end of the cable into the Ethernet port of Computer 1 and the other end with the same of the Computer 2 and apply the following steps in both the computers.

• Right-click on Computer from the start menu and select Properties.
• The system properties Control Panel window opens as shown below.

• Click on Change settings and the System properties dialog box appears. under the Computer Name tab, click on on the Change button to assign a WORKGROUP. Assign the same workgroup name for both computers otherwise it won’t work.

Restart each computer. It does not matter which computer you restart first. After starting both the computer, double-click on the Computer icon at the start menu and then click on Network from the left side of the explorer window.

In the computer 1, you should see an icon denoting your second computer’s name under the Networkwindow. Similarly, you can see that the first computer has been appeared under the Network window of your second computer.

If they do not appear, you should get a message prompting to turn on Network Discovery and file Sharing. Click that security pop-up and select “make the network a private network”. In case, you may have to restart your computers.

Once you see the other computer in your Network computer window, just double click on it. If the other computer is password protected, you will have to enter the exact user name and password of that computer to get access of the shared folder.

If you want to share some files or folder of a computer with the other computer on the network, right-click on that and select Share with > Homegroup. Even you can share a total drive by right-clicking on it.

Let me know if you face any problem when sharing files between two computers on LAN

How to Find the IP Address of a Remote Computer

Most of you may be curious to know how to find the IP address of your friend’s computer or the IP of the person with whom you may be chatting. If so, then this post will surely help you out.

In this post I’ll show you how to find the IP address of a remote computer in simple steps.

How to Capture the IP Address?

I have created a PHP script to make it easier for you to capture  the IP address of the any computer of your choice. Here is a step-by-step process to find out the IP address:

1. Download the IP Finder Script (IP_Finder.ZIP) that I have created from the following link:
   Download the IP-Finder-Script
2. Open a new account in X10Hosting (or any other free host that supports PHP).
3. Extract the IP_Finder.ZIP file and upload the two files ip.php and ip_log.txt into the root folder of your hosting account using the File Manager.
4. You can rename the ip.php to any name of your choice.
5. Set the permission to 777 on ip_log.txt.

Now, you are all set to find the IP address of your friend or any remote computer of your choice. All you have to do is send the link of ip.php to your friend or the person with whom you’re chatting. Once the person click’s on the link, his/her IP address is recorded in the file ip_log.txt.

For your better understanding let’s take up the following example:

Suppose you open a new account in X10hosting.com with the subdomain as abc, then your IP Finder link would be:

http://abc.x10hosting.com/ip.php

You have to send the above link to you friend via email or while chatting and ask him to visit that link. Once your friend clicks on the link, his IP address will be recorded along with the Date and Time in the ip_log.txt file. After recording the IP address, the script will redirect the person to google.com so as to avoid any suspicion.

To find the recorded IP address, check the logs using the following link:

http://abc.x10hosting.com/ip_log.php

The sample log will be in the following format:

79.92.144.237 Thursday 07th of May 2009 05:31:27 PM
59.45.144.237 Thursday 07th of May 2009 05:31:28 PM
123.92.144.237 Thursday 07th of May 2009 05:31:31 PM

NOTE: You have to replace abc with your subdomain name.

However, still we can create a hosted network connection in Windows 8 turning your computer into a hotspot allowing you to share files and internet connection to other Wi-Fi enabled devices such as mobile phones and tablets.

Today I’m going to introduce one of  latest software: “Wi-Host”. Wi-Host is a front-end GUI for “netsh” which allows you to set up a hosted network without the hassle of typing commands.

How To Install Windows 7/8 without using DVD or USB

1. Windows Installation package does not fit in a standard DVD if burn.
2. Having errors while making bootable USB.
3. Unsuccessful installation due to burning error on DVD or using high speed burning process
4. Having those steps Burning and making bootable USB takes so much time.

In this tutorial all listed problem above will be solved (hopefully). But consider this important note.

Important Note: You can only install Windows 7/8 32bit if you are running 32 bit windows and 64bit for 64bit windows. You cannot install 64 bit windows if you are running a 32bit system. That's the only time you will use USB or DVD. Sorry but I can't help you with that.

Here's what you need for the installation:

1. A laptop/PC running windows XP/Vista/7
2. Windows 7/8 installation ISO save in any of your hard drive(to be practical save it in drive d)
3. Mounting Tools (in my case i use Power ISO)
4. Partition software(optional) if you wish to install windows 7/8 in separate partition to make a dual boot machine

Here's How:

Step 1 . Make sure your Windows Installation is not corrupted or does not contain any error files. You can google it on how to do this. So google is everything you need.

Step 2 . Install mounting software. Make sure you know how to use mounting tools if not proceed to the manual of the software you installed. If you already installed mounting tools, then mount the Windows 7/8 installation ISO in one drive.

Step 3. Go to the drive where the installation directory was mounted. "Right click" on the drive, then you should see an option like "Install or run a program from your media" click on it.

Step 4. A notification will pop up that need administrative permission just click "Yes" then proceed to enter the username or password or else if you have administrative rights there's no need to type anything.

Step 5. The installation window will now come out, click install then follow the succeeding instructions. At this stage your machine will boot as it is required during the installation process.

Option for Dual Boot:
 
You should have another partition which you prepared before proceeding the installation steps above. If you don't know how to make partitions google it. During the installation process choose advance installation then select the partition drive which you would like to install. Make sure you choose the right drive or else your programs/documents will be save in Windows.old files.

Step 6. Take some coffee or tea break. After you finish drinking your coffee or tea. Start exploring your windows 7/8.

How could this be possible?

Windows installation process uses a temporary folder its either in Drive C or D when copying installation files in DVD/USB the same process if you just mount it using mounting tools.
