which protocol for home networks? [ms networks] [home networking]
Q: See topic . does IPX / SPX has any advantages?
I still have a little problem usng the default “Client for Microsoft Networks”, “File and Printer Sharing:, and” TCP / IP “it takes a long time (30 seconds or so) If I eg Raccordez. From the laptop my shared folders on the desktop. (or vice versa) takes 30sec
It til the applicant with the password / login shows up . thats kinda annoying.
Is there is no way for a smoother / faster home network without his pw / login ?
one machine running XP Home, the other Pro. thinki I can not disable the claimant on Passwort Lapto (with home), because i dont have the group policy editor in XP Home and can not turn off.
Best Answer: seems your modem is configured for bridge mode and you are connecting your devices through rj45 and usb simultaneously.so check whether your modem still configured for bridge mode.
or i suggest you to connect your devices like this
modem-router-switch (if you don't have enough ports)-pc1…pc2.and so on.
for this you have to configure your modem for pppoe mode (you hav to fill your username and passward in modem, you dont have to dial connection ) and dhcp enabled.
configure your router to get ip address automatically.and enable its dhcp too.
configure your all the connecting devices for "obtain ip address automatically".

Re:NetBEUI, IPX/SX, and TCP/IP are ALL old protocols. However, Windows file and print services have been designed to use any of the three protocols available.
NetBEUI has the smallest overhead, is the easiest to configure (none!), and provides the fastest file transfers using File and Printer Sharing for MS Networks (SMB). However, it typically can't be used across a router or firewall.
IPX/SX is Novell's protocol. It has higher overhead than NetBEUI, but is easier to configure than TCP/IP under Windows. It can be used across some routers that support IPX, but these are becoming harder to find in new routers these days.
TCP/IP is our Internet favorite. It has the highest overhead, and requires a bit of configuring if you don't have a DHCP server or personal firewall with DHCP server capabilities. It also needs to be configured for the proper name resolution (broadcast, hybrid, or WINs) or else you can't browse your home network.
I used to install both NetBEUI and TCP/IP protocols, and have it bound to the File and Printer Sharing for MS Networks service. However, they don't bundle NetBEUI with Windows XP Pro anymore, so I just stick with TCP/IP. IPX just doesn't provide enough incentive to use anymore, so I never install it. I guess you could get some speed gain from the lower overhead, but if it concerns you that much, move up to Gigabit Ethernet and use jumbo Ethernet frames.

Re:NetBEUI is a good one. Also, it works good with windows shares.

Re:no,
i set two static IPs and switched off DHCP server on router.

Re:The slowdown is a known issue with XP when initially browsing the shares on another networked computer. There are some registry tweaks to remove that "pause". Changing the lower-level transport protocol that SMB (Windows File/Printer Sharing) uses, would not remove that pause.
(Unless the pause is when you first boot up or log in, in that case, Windows' may be attempting to request an IP address from a DHCP server on the local subnet, if you have the network card configured for "Obtain IP Address Automatically". The solution there is to set the computer to a static IP address.)

Re:TCP/IP must be used.
IPX/SPX is needed for few very Old games.
If you do not play these games there is No use for it.
NetBEUI as mentioned above is a good solution for LAN Sharing.

Re:run netbeui and watch all browsing trouble come to a halt.
you can install it from the XP CD.
IPX/SPX is an ancient protocol that really isn't used anymore.
