Hi all,
I would like to move data between two computers. One is a box running oS 12.2 and is connected to a router via cable. The other computer (netbook with oS 12.1 or android ICS tablet) connects to the same router via wifi. Asking whatismyip in a browser gives the same result, so setting up and ftp connection based on IP is not possible. So how can I share data between the machines? I mean without connecting them with a cord.
That server shows both computers have the same IP address because your router/firewall is using something called Network Address Translation, which allows multiple devices to share one public address. However, there is also an address range on your local network that is used by your devices. It will often start with 192.168. Open a command prompt and issue the command /sbin/ifconfig to see the address on your computer. There are Android utilities that show the IP address of an Android device. However, that netbook should get the same address with either Linux or Android running. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address_translation -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
