Can I connect to other PC's host only server ?

Post by exojjang »

Hello

I was wondering if i can connect my PC with someone else's PC? i know its possible in Bridged network mode but i want to connect it with Host-Only mode

for example if i have two laptops, is it possible to connect those two laptops in host-only way ?

i know if i use only one laptop and switch on three machines and put them in host-only mode, i'll be able to receive the reply from one and other machine using PING

but if i use two laptops, the host-only mode wont coonect me with other PC !

Is there a way for me to connect host-only computer to other computer without using bridged network ??????

Host only means host only. So no, no other PC can be involved. There is no physical network so how could the other PC be involved?

If you want multiple PCs to be involved, including a physical component, then that sounds like you need bridged.
