This is probably has to be as simple as it gets, however i am having major difficulties.
I have a desktop computer running Windows 8.1 & a Laptop Computer running also Windows 8.1
What i need is a LAN between the two of them.
The lan would be required to play games and file transfer. I have partially managed to get the file transfer to work, using this guide: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/30365-42-desktop-wired-router-laptop-wireless
However the actual lan does not work. I can not get any games playing. Maybe because i have automatic ip address on both computers?
When ever i made lan parties at the house,i set everybody's computers with a specific IP.So when i am in game,i just open console type :Connect IP and i am in game.
Can i make LAN with automatic IP? And if so,how to do so?
Another issue is how to integrate My Printer into this LAN?
I have a printer that i have it connected to my desktop. The printer does not have a network card on it. So no it is not ethernet capable. It's an old model,connecting only via USB 2.0
I want to be able to access the printer from my laptop.
