Easily solve the problem that LAN can't access each other.

  

Often users report that it is very slow to browse online neighbors in Win2000 and WinXP, especially when there are Win9x and WinMe workstations in the network. Sometimes it takes more than 10 to open the network neighbor. Minutes, often reported errors, how to solve it? I have encountered similar problems before, for this reason, Xiaobian pondered the reasons, found that the network protocol configuration problem and WinXP plan tasks caused by the problem, which needs to To solve the problem, let me give you a solution to the recipe.

First, network protocol installation and setup

1. Install NetBEUI protocol in WinXP

Yes, you are not mistaken, is to install NetBEUI protocol in WinXP . Microsoft only supports TCP/IP protocol and NWLinkIPX/SPX/NetBIOS compatible protocol in WinXP, and officially announced that it no longer supports NetBEUI protocol. However, in the actual use of establishing a small local area network, the use of two protocols supported by Microsoft is not satisfactory. For example, in the process of solving the problem of slow network neighbors, the author used a number of methods, although the speed of the network neighborhood is better, but it is still slow as a snail; in addition, when setting up multiple network card protocols, client and service binding, this There are still bugs in the two protocols. Multiple NICs must be bound to all protocols (except NWLinkNetBIOS), clients and services. Even if you cancel some bindings, the system will automatically add them. This obviously does not satisfy the network well. The actual needs in the construction. When the author installed the NetBEUI protocol in WinXP, the above two problems were solved satisfactorily.

There are 3 files in the directory of the WinXP installation CD in the "\\valueADD\\MSFT\\NET\\NETBEUI" directory, where "NETBEUI.TXT" is the installation instructions, and the other two are required to install the NetBEUI protocol. file. The specific steps for installation are as follows:

■Copy “NBF.SYS” to “%SYSTEMROOT%\\SYSTEM32\\DRIVERS\\”directory;

■Copy quo;NETNBF.INF” “%SYSTEMROOT%\\INF\\”Directory;

■Click the “Install" button in the network connection properties to install the NetBEUI protocol.

Note: %SYSTEMROOT% is the WinXP installation directory. For example, if the author's WinXP is installed in the F:\\Windows directory, you should replace %SYSTEMROOT% with F:\\Windows.

2. Set up other network protocols in WinXP

I suggest that if your LAN does not need to use the Internet, you only need to install the NetBEUI protocol. In a small LAN (a network with about 200 computers) NetBEUI is the least expensive and fastest protocol, and the NWLinkIPX/SPX/NetBIOS compatible protocol should be removed.

If your LAN is going to the Internet, you must install the TCP/IP protocol. However, for fast access to the network, it is recommended to specify the IP address of each workstation (unless there is a DHCP server in the network), otherwise the workstation will always look for the DHCP server to slow down the network.

Of course, if only TCP/IP protocol is installed in the network, it can realize mutual access in the LAN. However, it is more difficult to directly see other machines in the network neighborhood. You must search for a certain machine before you can Accessing it is inconvenient in many practical network applications.

3. Other Windows computer network protocol settings

Careful users may have found that there is an additional "Set up a home or small office network" wizard in WinXP's network neighborhood. Use this wizard to easily set up LAN sharing, Internet connectivity, and small LAN. The wizard also provides a network installation floppy disk for other Windows computers connected to WinXP.

However, I do not advocate using this network to install floppy disks. On other Windows computers connected to WinXP, just install the NetBEUI protocol and set the network logo. To connect to the Internet, just install the TCP/IP protocol and specify the IP address. This is exactly the same as the traditional LAN settings, and it is recommended to use less IPX/SPX compatible protocols. Previous123Next page Total 3 pages
