Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Hi
Thanks for the quick reply.
I've got both computers in the same workgroup and i've shared the hard drives of both machines.
Should I be using a static IP address or should I let windows configure that?
At the moment i've assigned an IP address, subnet of 255.255.255.0 and a...
Please can someone please put my mind at rest and help me with this problem.
1x PC with a ASUS wireless card
1x Tablet PC with a wireless card built in.
I've managed to the both of the PC's to be connected where you can view the available wireless networks and can ping each other...
Cool thanks everyone for all the info. I'm starting to get a better idea of how things will happen.
So as my lan's will just be getting off the ground the hubs should do untill I get up and running then.
And if its file sharing that i causing the problem could I not just ban file sharing...
So whats the problem with using hubs?
Why are they so bad?
Will I not be able to host a network with 15/20 people the 3com 24port hub?
Would it really be that bad??
Take it easy.
I've just spoted another tablet by Acer.
Would this be able to handle a game server? & how many people would it be able to host @ Ut2003?
Mobile Intel® Centrino technology, 1GHz
512DDR...
Right so really I need to get shot of the hubs and move to switches?
I'll get rid of them on ebay if they are going to be that bad.
I've spotted this laptop @ shoplaptop. Would you think this spec would run game servers ok?
Mobile AMD Athlon XP processor 2500+
60GB Hard Disk
512MB...
I reckon I'll just get a good laptop with plenty of ram then to use as a game server. Because i need a laptop anyhow.
My gaming machine and what I'll be using as the game server for the moment is...
AMD Athlon 64 3200+
512mb twinOS 400mhz dual channel
MSI FX5900XT
160 Seagate SATA
ASUS...
What do ya's make of this one.
I've just put together a new PC and when I shut the PC down it will not power back up using the power botton on the case.
I've acutally got to switch the power off from the PSU before the PC will power back on using the switch?
Any ideas?
Peace.
Cool I really not sure weather I should get it then now? Because apart from it looking nice and using it for wireless inet i did want to use it as a game server too.
I would really like a powerfull tablet but my budget just wont allow it :)
I would really like to use a laptop thou if...
Cool cheers for the reply dude.
I would really like to use a laptop thou if possible.
Do you think if I got a top spec laptop It would manage running the game servers ok? I.e Intel P4 3.2GHz, 512MB DDR, 80GB, 128MB ATI 9600, 10/100 LAN

I've built a new PC also...
Dear all,
I'm currently starting up a new Lan Party in the UK and i'm about to buy a HP TC1100 Tablet PC.
Do you think this device would be capable of hosting game servers for the network? I.e / UT2003 etc......
The spec of the device is
Intel Celeron 800 MHz
256 MB (DDR SDRAM)...
