simplest way networking and internetting. Buy a router 2 extra Lan-cables.
On the PC with the tv-card install vlc-server and on the other install vlc-client. next comes the hardest part. read the manuals for vlc-server and client, and of course the routers-manual too.
First setup the router witout connection to the internet and configure it. The TV-PC should have a fixed IP-address. while the other can have its IP via dhcp.
Next configure the router for the WAN-side(Internet) setting are the same you have before on the aktual pc you are surfing now.
after done this, configure the Internet pc with the data gatway IP with that to the router. /etc/network/interfaces is the config file existing on both pc's. and differs only for eth0 the server has here the static address while the other is set to dhcp.
Server:
auto lo eth0
iface lo inet loopback
address 127.0.0.1
netmask 255.0.0.0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.x.y
mask 255.255.255.0
the other:
auto lo eth0
iface lo inet loopback
address 127.0.0.1
netmask 255.0.0.0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
so far for the moment |
