Help....sigh:^( |

Hi all.
I am trying to get started using Net Meeting and I was hoping I could get
some help.
I purchased a book by Bob summers but it seems it a little outdated and not
as applicable anymore...so I am forced to learn from "Baptism by fire."
Anway, I found Brian Sullivan's site to be helpful and informative but I am
still having trouble getting started.
I have done and am working from the following.
1- I have Windows xp
2- I have a Linksys router that I use to network 2 computers.
3- I am running Windows XP on one and 98 2nd edition on computer 2.
4- I have downloaded Net meeting 3.01
-What is the first step I need to do to have a net meeting?
-What steps does one take to have a net meeting?
Any help is greatly appreciated ...
Thanks very much...Tony |

Tony,
You will have to setup fixed IP addresses with the Linksys router for
your internal PCs first. DHCP will not cut it, because you do not know
the address of the other computer.
1) find out your router's address
goto http://192.168.1.1/Status.htm and see if you get a response. If
you do, your Router's IP address is 192.168.1.1. Otherwise, try
192.168.0.1.
2) goto your network settings and change from Obtain an IP address
automatically to -> Use the following IP address. Then enter
IP address 192.168.1.10 (if your router is ...1.1, otherwise, it will
have to be .0.10)
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: your routers address, either 192.168.1.1 or ...0.1
On the 2nd computer do exactly the same EXCEPT that the IP address
will have to be e.g. 192.168.1.20 (or 192.168.0.20)
3) Launch Netmeeting on both sides. From the computer that you setup
for 192.168.x.10 call 192.168.x.20.
Hope that helps!

It does not matter how the IP address is assigned. Generally with most soho
routers DHCP addresses are assigned to the same computer every time. So
determining IP address once is all that is required.

Don't bother -- use dhcp.
Setting up static addresses is generally not necessary.
