What is "Public LAN"

Christopher_LKL — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 18:28:09 +0800

Hi all Sifus ... i have a question, what is Public LAN?

lets say I had subscribed a service from ISP.

It gives these information in the invoice...

Customer WAN IP xxx.xxx.xxx.118
Customer WAN IP Gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.117
Customer WAN IP Subnet /252
Customer Public LAN xxx.xxx.xxx.1-xxx.xxx.xxx.6

Hmm I am not very good in Networking, but is there anybody can help me translate the details?

I know dat WAN IP is how other ppl can see me. It is unique.
But how about WAN IP gateway dat seems like this gateway only for me?
The subnet of 252 means I have 2 hosts rite? i assume is for 118/117?

and finally what is Public LAN? ....

any explanation is much appreciated, thank you

Help Suspect Motherboard Southbridge dead :cry:

Christopher_LKL — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 19:29:57 +0800

Hi guys, help please ....

well, yesterday rained very heavily in the evening i guess everybody knows ... with heavy thunderstorm...

after my work, den as usual jam back to home ...

and guess wat ... my router dead (no power at all)

and my desktop dead

when i boot up my PC... hmm it says cant detect keyboard (USB).. ok ... hmm maybe some losen, tried other port = same ... alrighty so maybe keyboard dead ...
so i took a spare and try, hmm same.. ok .... so i try other, ok can boot up.. this time ... it hangs... on halfway loading windows (vista)... den ok maybe just some problem, i reboot... can boot into windows, 2 mins later -> hang ... so ... i boot into safe mode .. seems ok .... den reboot back to normal, hang again like just now... den to safe mode, ok again ... back to normal, it hangs again. i tired many times, until i suspect maybe too hot around the southbridge area so i use my stand fan to blow it. fair enuf it boots, run smoothly, nothing happens ...

den i try all usb with pendrive, storage, blutooth, wifi and so on in windows, it seems dat the pc only left 2 USB port to me, 1 for keyboard 1 for mouse ... keyboard and mouse plug into other usb also unable to work.

im using Asus P5B with ICH8 ... i suspect the USB ports all kong (left 2) due to yesterday god's anger. and the PC will hang as i dunno if this is possible, maybe something wrong with my southbridge and it raises its temperature so high until it hangs? is it possible?(it used to be very very hot, have a heatsink on it too)

is there any other solutions on this except getting a new mobo?

btw, my pc is only E6420 @ 1333mhz fsb, 3GB RAM, 3 harddisk, P5B, gigabyte 600 watt PSU, 9800GT, compro tv card x30, sound blaster audigy 4. it has been oc since the day i got it which was 2 years ago until now.

any sifu here kind to share opinions? thanks a lot...

btw, right after that i updated to latest BIOS, latest mobo inf driver and basically all drivers...

[Networking] Help ... One Way Ping! Argh ....

Christopher_LKL — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 09:00:47 +0800

Hi all the gurus in lowyat.net. I had a problem and used 2 days still not able to fix it.

Currently in a network. there are four servers (all 4 on Windows server 2003 R2)... <There is no firewall in any on these servers>

A = 192.168.0.1
B = 0.2
C = 0.3
D = 0.4

and alot of other hosts around ~0.100 to ~0.200 (XPs)

all the above is under same netwrok same switch, no router/firewall in between them.

all in same Domain (A is the AD and the DHCP server, DNS server)

ok now this is problem... Please help

D is having problem now. A B C and all Hosts can not even Ping A, cannot see shares or anything. Net View D returns "System Error 53"

but D can ping anyone of them, can view all the shares in A B C and all host.
At 1st using command "Net View" in D returns "System Error 6118" but i had fixed it. now D can view anything, can ping anything. but not the other way round.

Solutions done:
-rebooting pc
-disable/reenable NIC
-static IP in A B C D
-enabled netbios
-installed netbeui
-refreshed DNS
-WINS refreshed
-Regsitry added TransportBindName and SMBDeviceEnabled
-disabled master browser
-restarted service Comptuer Browser many times
-etc ....

Please help. this 1 seriously cracked my head .....

there is some possibilities which i can think of, probably is either Driver problem OR NIC problem ....

any help/opinions would be thankful.

thank you very much

Help! Limit certain Program to use Certain NIC

Christopher_LKL — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 11:06:54 +0800

Hi,

i have a question, hmm started like this,
i have a router - well pretty standard 4 port wireless router ... but i made it into 4 VLAN each port = 1VLAN, that makes it 192.168.0.0/24 , .1.0/24, .2.0/24, .3.0/24

i have a pc - normal pc but has 4 NIC each of them connected to one of the VLAN.

- the vlans have no problem (means they can funtion properly)
- the NICs of the computer have no problem (means they can get DHCP ip and able to connect too)
- between vlans are not routable (purposely make it, but all of them can go online , able to get to WAN)

the reason i need to do this, is because i have a program, and i need it to be open multiple instances, clashes happened when all of them using same interface to go internet, and force the program to close (this problem has been identified as LAN problem, not WAN interface) .....

so i need 4 vlan and have 4 seperate NIC and connect them wach NIC to each VLAN, and them use 4 instances programs at a time, so it shouldnt have any problem ....

Questions, how can i FORCE/LIMIT once of the instance of the program to use ONLY one of the interface, same to the second and so on ...

means

VLAN 1 - > pc a -> if 1 -> program 1.a
VLAN 2 - > pc a -> if 2 -> program 1.b
VLAN 3 - > pc a -> if 3 -> program 1.c
VLAN 4 - > pc a -> if 4 -> program 1.d

is there any program/firewall that can do so? Please recommend me ....
p/s: dun think metric cost can be used here ...... it only priotirize the interface ....

please help
thank you very much

Sound Blaster Audigy Driver Cannot Install

Christopher_LKL — Sun, 25 Feb 2007 23:33:38 +0800

Hi guys and all sifus, i need somebody help ...

i have 1 sound blaster Audigy (1st generation),bought this 4 years ago, its name is Audigy 1394 and have Model number of SB0090. Okay problem start, i cleaned my PC last few days, by taking the card out and clean and reinsert it again, i done this plenty of times, so far no problem at all, but not for this time.

i plugged in back, switched on my computer and my computer cannot even detect that card anymore. firstly i think it was just loosen, but its not, i tried a few time also the same thing. then i found out that windows DETECTED the hardware itself as a multimedia audio controller, but just the Driver itself coulnt install with "cannot detect the hardware" kind of messages. i tried alot of times using original cd, updated driver from the website and all kind of things.... but still no luck.

later i got try kX audio and think it might work, well it works! but then kX does not support EAX and games compatibility have some issues i guess, so command voices in bf2142 is really killing my ears.

so its confirm the hardware itself can be use but the driver really no good (well, creative is very popular with their sucking drivers from day 1 they started) and the official site, help is blaming the motherboard problem. and i found out ALOT of other users having the same problem.

After further finding, i found that its the eeprom bug that made the driver cannot detect the hardware itself, for some reasons, the eeprom will changed to some funny things itself due to unknown reasons (there are ALOT of reasons out there, but none confirm, it seems Creative is cheating customers for putting this bug inside for EVERYKIND of HARDWARE they have...)

So, dear all lowyatians, do u guys have any idea on how i can restored this card?
This is a good card, i love it but now it failed me, since its just a eeprom bug and drivers issue, is there any solution? to install its original driver and not kX... i dun wan to waste the money as the hardware itself is as good as new... )

its very long winded, and thanks for reading and please help me
(a new sound card, X-fi in particular, cost a bomb. and audigy 4 also not cheap ... if there is NO more solution ... i guess i will get 1 audigy value no cash ...) ...

and i dun wan to use onboard sound... tried ... but instantly shut off and disable it... its torturing my ear with that on board sound ...

thanks again ...
