Title: which IP address to use
Post by liam on Mar 3rd, 2007, 9:10am
Hi

I've tried before to connect my home pc with my office pc via various programes for file sharing, remote linking etc but always fail to get through due to ISP hardware/software/modems/routers, dynamic IP's, LANs etc.

I can't see any help on setting the software up to overcome these problems.

what can I do that would make your software work so that I could send large files to either pc?

Thks, Liam

Hi Liam,
Thank you for your interest in our solutions.
As I understand, you wish to connect two PCs over Internet using virtual modems. One virtual modem can "dial" other virtual modem and IP address of the remote PC is used as phone number. So, if your remote PC has static IP address you need to specify that IP address. In some cases (if remote PC is under router, you can specify router's IP and configure port forwarding).
In other words you need to configure PCs to be able to ping remote PC from local PC.
Then you will be able to dial remote PC via virtual modem.

Thanks.

Hi, I have two PC which are on the same LAN network. How do we "Dial" a virtual modem from a remote PC (on LAN Network) or telephone ? If possible please let me know if there is any application present to do the same.

Best Regards,
