Hi I need a FREE Software that can find out my ports. IPs. And do lots of stuff with my network.

Thanks.

sry but again you really need to be clear about what you ask.

anything to do with you computer can be found out in Windows control panel.

if you can be more specific we can tell you exactly where to look

....eh if you have a router the software that comes with it handles ALL your ports. Windows service pack 2 has a nice lile thing i think that can do it also. If you want an easy way to look at each computers IP. go to start->RUN type in CMD

and in CMD type in ipconfig /all it should show every thing for that computer

ipconfig (shows some info)
ipconfig /all (detailed info)
ip /renew (assigns that box an IP)
ip /release (unassigns a box an IP)

I'm trying to ask how can I find out my ports.

[SilentTrigger]

What do you mean find out your ports? Ports that are in use?

[Steve]

i suppose if you say why you need it, it might help us figure out what info you need to know

exactly, there programs to view ports, open ports, both, monitor transfers though the ports.

Im gonna be mean here for once , But look, if you need help, tell us what your trying to do, what you need EXACTLY specs (if needed) and a list of problems (if apply to the problem) other wise your going to get no help, and smart ass remarks along with frustrated people that in the end wont bother. Now on that note

You asked for something to show you IP addresses, i told you but you said "I'm trying to ask how can I find out my ports." so what do you need and what do you need it for.

LIKE I SAID, if you have a router, hub, or switch that you BOUGHT you more then likley are overlooking the software that comes pre-intalled with it. If you run off a router then you have 100% control if you type in your local IP address (in most cases). In mine its http://192.168.2.1/

Yes, but What port should I use?

[Steve]

FOR WHAT?

[Webviper2006]

For Hosting. You know hosting a game, Delta Force Black Hawk Down.

[IcIshoot]

why didn't you say so at first?

If I remember correctly BHD uses 17479 for the default port.

How about Call of Duty?

[Webviper2006]

You see I have a network with 3 computers, including me. And when I host DFBHD ONLINE, then the other computers can't even connect. Why?

[IcIshoot]

You got to open up the game port in your firewalls - your router and any on the computer your hosting the game on.

check your router documentation for instructions on how to do it.
