For about 2 weeks I have been getting frequent messages from ZoneAlarm
that says it has blocked internet access (NetBIOS session) from
192.168.1.2 (TCP Port 3680), (TCP Flags: S). These messages appear 4 or
5 times a day.
192.168.1.2 is a non-routable address so this is from a computer on your
side of the router/firewall. Your router is probably 192.168.1.1.
So what is the IP address of your computer and what other devices do you
have on the LAN? Do you know their IP addresses? Are you using dynamic or
static IP addresses?
I don't know enough to answer all your questions. I have a wireless
router connected to a cable modem for internet access. Except for an
old pocket PC that uses wireless, I have two computers connected to the
router via a wire. Both are PCs, and I never established a
communication between the two PCs because I don't know how. The Windows
XP wizard couldn't make a connection. (Both have Windows XP but one is
Home, the other Pro. The Pro one is soon to be sent off to a university
with my daughter, despite the urging of that university to get a Mac --
but eventually, not right away.)
So, in order to answer your questions:
How can I find the IP address of my two computers? How do I determine
if dynamic or static IP addresses are being used?
Sorry if I am not smarter than I am.
