    pcAnYWHERE 8.0 and ISDN connections.

    Locked

    by chood@rocketscientistsonl · about 24 years, 6 months ago

    I have a customer who wants to use there T-1 connection in New York to connect thru there ISDN device (WebRamp 410i) with pcANYWHERE 8.0 using TCP/IP to remotely manage the accounting softwhere on one of the host computers in West Palm Beach, FL..
    Having used pcAnywhere in the past over my own internal network, it has required a static IP address to make the connection on the host computer, and using what I know about ISDN (which is very little) the circuit dosn’t provide that static IP.
    The service provider has informed me that a static IP on that service is not avaliable that I will have to go to SDSL or frame relay to accomplish this.
    1. Is this true?
    2. Is there an alternitive to this ?
    3. Can I use the ISDN circuit to connect directly to the host computer thru direct dial in?
    I have installed an internal modem in the host computer in the interim to allow the closing of the books for this month but this can’t be a long term solution it is just to slow for effective or productive work.
    If anyone can be of some assistance I would be greatful.
    Your’s truly, Charles Hood

      Charles, I have a ISDN line and have a Static IP so you should be able to get that service! I’m using a Netgear Router RT338NA (model number). I am able to pc-Anywhere in with no problem. Proxy Servers can be a problem. At the Palm Beach location you could have someone run winipcfg to determine IP address then they would have to call the
      New York location with the IP address and they could get in. Or you could have Palm Beach connect to New York and then let new york take control of the machine in Florida.
      Good Luck!
