wat ip i have to set for?

chern84 — Thu, 28 Dec 2006 02:12:15 +0800

I have 1 modem and 1 router. I got 1 streamyx connection and 10 computers.

2 of the computers are using LAN cable to connect to the router, and the other 8 computers are using wireless adaptor to connect to the rounter.

The 2 computers which using LAN cable to connect to the internet is mainly for online purpose.

The question is I want to isolate the 2 computers with the other 8 computers, at the mean time, i have to make sure all the computers can coonect to the internet. So how is the IP address, subnet mask, Gateway, and DNS should I set on all of these computers.

The rounter IP address would be 192.168.1.1, subnet mask would be 255.255.255.0 and the gateway would be 192.168.1.1.

Can I do this with 1 router?

Can recommend some Managed Switch?

chern84 — Fri, 16 Jun 2006 04:48:54 +0800

BACKGROUND

I got 1 workgroup which contains 12 computers.

1 of the pc , says S1, is considered as small server. It use to share the data to the remaining computers.

Another pc, says S2, is used for backup data from S1. It also used as workstation.

The ramaining 10 computers is just used as workstation.

EXISTENCE

Now I am using Compex PS2216 pocket switch. It is an unmanaged switch with 16ports (3.2Gbps).

PROBLEM

When 10 or more computers are connecting to S1, there will be 1 or 2 of the computers will not connect to the rest of the computers.

This Compex PS2216 is just broke down. I am considering whether to buy which kind of switch. Am I need to buy a managed switch? If yes, please recomend me some of the managed switch. If no, any reconmendation to me?

Million thanks in advance!
