Send files from one Computer to Another Using lan Cable
In this article you will find out how to Send files from one computer to another with Lan cable (cat5). I never liked using big pen drives to share large data ( like big games,movies etc) so the only thing I am left with, was using lan cable.
When to use lan cable Send files from one computer to another
It would be very tiring to keep on inserting and removing pen drive again and again. And if you hate this too, then you have come to right place, after reading article I am sure you will able to send and receive files using Lan cable.
Advantage of LAN cable over others
Fast data transfer.
You don’t have to stand there and waste your time. Do the setup once and you can move on to your other work.
Looks cool
Things that you required
Two laptop
A lan cable
Little bit of your time and patience (only if it’s your first time)
Step 1
Connect one computer to another using lan cable.
Step 2
OK now you have to enable sharing option on both computers.
Go to Control Panel> Network and Internet> Network and Sharing Center > Advanced sharing settings.
Make sure you turn on network detection and turn off password protection off.
Step 3
Bring both the computers on same network.
1. Open control panel Control Panel >> Network and Internet >>Network Connections.
2. You will see Local Area Connection 2 .
3. Right click it and navigates to properties .
4. You will see tcp/ ivp4 option there and select it’s properties .
5. Select this use the following ip address
Put the following value on 1st computer
Ip address 192.168.1.1
Subnet mask 225.225.225.0
Default gateway 192.168.1.3
Put the following value on 2nd computer
Ip address 192.168.1.3
Subnet mask 225.225.225.0
Default gateway 192.168.1.1
Basically what we are doing is keeping the subnet mask same and changing the ip address . You might have seen others values on different websites, all are correct but if you are not familiar with networking I would suggest that you stick to these values only. If everything went good you will see the two computer name in the Networks.
Step 4
Share a folder on lan
Assuming that you have connected the cable properly and enable the sharing option now it’s time Send files from one computer to another , this is very simple
1.Select the folder you want to share, right click it .
2.Select share this >> specific people.
3. On the drop down menu select everyone >> add >> click share.
Now we have done drive sharing in LAN networking successfully.
