Hi,<br />
I have been struggling to use the &quot;net send&quot; command in command prompt.<br />
I have a home network via a DSL router and when I type &quot;net send * (message)&quot; the only computer to recieve the message is the computer that I sent the messgae from.<br />
Also if I put in the name or IP address of another computer, is gives a message saying <br />
&quot;An error occured while sending a message to (computername)<br />
A general network error occured.<br />
More help is avaliable by typing net helpmsg 2136.&quot;<br />
<br />
Plaese could you advise me on a way to get around this difficulty.<br />
<br />
Thanks <br />

Hi,
I have been struggling to use the "net send" command in command prompt.
I have a home network via a DSL router and when I type "net send * (message)" the only computer to recieve the message is the computer that I sent the messgae from.
Also if I put in the name or IP address of another computer, is gives a message saying 
"An error occured while sending a message to (computername)
A general network error occured.
More help is avaliable by typing net helpmsg 2136."

Plaese could you advise me on a way to get around this difficulty.

Net Send Problem

The term broadband commonly refers to high-speed Internet access that is always on and faster than the traditional dial-up access. Broadband includes several high-speed transmission technologies such as digital subscriber line (DSL), cable, fiber optics, wireless (for which there is a separate topic), satellite and broadband over powerlines (BPL).
