I'm 99% sure that are on your Landlord's LAN, so you can see each
other's devices.

How can you test for this from MSDOS?  I have no idea.

Try pinging the broadcast address in your net. Not all devices present
might respond but you will get a guess if something unexpected is on the
lan. The other way would be to ping individually all possible addresses
in your subnet.

Never used LAN-over-powerline devices but AFAIK they should have a
pairing mechanism and communication should be encrypted.


I don't even
know how MSDOS does networking in the present day.  The old-school
command-line tool is nmap.  Maybe it exists in your DOS.

Are you actually running MSDOS or are you running something else?
Perhaps one of these:

- FreeDOS
- a CLI (cmd.exe, for example) under Windows
- a DOS box under Linux

I'll await an answer rather than speculating.
