Re: Unrecognised device, MAC address all zeros
12 years ago, by Andrew in WiFi Guard Forum
No, it sounds more like a bug in the WiFi Guard. What version are you using?

The network scanner allows this through the use of loadable configuration files, so you not only can have scan-specific columns but also any other specific settings related to a particular scan type. For example, you could configure it for "Printers" scan and save that configuration file as printers. Then configure it for "Computers hardware info" and save it as a separate file

No, there isn't. The idea is that if all your IP addresses are static, you use names mapped to the IP addresses. If all or some of your IP addresses are dynamic, you use names to the MAC addresses. Finally, if IP addresses are dynamic and MAC addresses cannot be resolved (in a different subnet) you can map to the host names.

There are two RAM disk types available. 1) Disks created and mounted when the system starts. Those are created via Disk - Add Boot Disk. 2) Disks created and mounted when a user logs on. Those are created via Disk - Add Disk. Now if you want to have an on-demand disk, create the latter via Disk - Add Disk. This disk remembers its mount state. If you click Unmount the disk will be dism

There is a tool called Link Shell Extension that allows to move some files to a different disk and link to them. You can try placing some games files on the RAM disk and create links to them in their original location. Hope this helps.
Pentium III install issue - SSE2

Unfortunately this RAM disk requires the SSE2 instruction set support. It won't work on an old CPU.
monitor all devices using wireless broadband

When you choose to monitor all traffic on all network interfaces, possibly including local traffic or multiple adapters including virtual and dial-up ones and sums it all up. This may lead to excessive download readings.

Then for some reason NetWorx couldn't detect it. Do you have anything from the following list installed: VirtualBox, NetLimiter, Eset Personal Firewall, OnlineArmor, any PC Tools products?

Is your modem visible in that drop-down list?
12 years ago, by Andrew in NetWorx Forum
Make sure you have selected the correct network interface to monitor in the NetWorx settings.
12 years ago, by Andrew in NetWorx Forum
Please explain what you mean by "can't get it to monitor" as it could be: 1. NetWorx does not start or crashes. 2. NetWorx reports zero activity. 3. NetWorx reports incorrect values. All these are different issues.
monitor all devices using wireless broadband

With NetWorx you basically have got two options: 1. Install NetWorx on every computer on your network. This can only be done if all your computers are running Windows. While NetWorx can only monitor traffic on the computer where it is installed, instances of NetWorx can talk to each other so that each instance is synchronised and shows the actual overall usage. The synchronisation needs to

Copy NETWORX.DB from your computer, either from c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\SoftPerfect\NetWorx or C:\ProgramData\SoftPerfect\NetWorx. to the same location on the other computer.
Toggle to switch upload / download with SNMP and other stuff
12 years ago, by Andrew in NetWorx Forum
Yes, I have been asked this several time already. Now planning to add a line monitor, similar to the app you are referring to, that could chart ping times, log line outages and uptime. Another major feature I'd like to add is monitoring per application, that is how much data each application consumes.

I have added a new setting to allow you to swap RX and TX. Download a fresh copy here. Then go to the hidden settings and toggle 'Swap uploads and downloads'.
Queries about Graph and Desk Band
12 years ago, by Andrew in NetWorx Forum
1. This is the minimum size. 2. No, there isn't. 3. It's not possible, because if the "data all" colour is not present, either download or upload will obscure its counterpart, and such a graph won't be useful. The "data all" colour represents the colour with which the value will be shown when both in and out traffic has been recorded. For example if you define Blue fo

I have added an audible alert on detection. See under the advanced settings in the latest build.
12 years ago, by Andrew in NetWorx Forum
You just need to choose ONE specific network interface to monitor in the settings. As installed NetWorx is monitoring all traffic on all network interfaces, possibly including local traffic or multiple adapters including virtual and dial-up ones and sums it all up. This might result in incorrect readings.
Suppressing warning dialogs...

In order to turn off host availability checking clear these checkboxes I will add a "Do not show this again" option to the other warning dialogs.
Win7 computers don't see XP instance of networx

That's how firewalls work: allow specific activities and disallow others. For NetWorx both incoming and outgoing connections must be allowed via TCP/UDP port 8703.

Re: Does Wifi Guard also detect wired computers?

It detects all computers (both wired and wireless).

Well technically it's just a list of strings "key=value". It can be 1.2.3.4 = My server or AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF = My server or mysrv1 = My server. The network scanner needs to know which one of these to use when displaying friendly names. If you choose Map IP address, it will take the values from the IP address column and display a name for each IP address. If y

This list can only contain items of the same type, e.g. IP address, or MAC address or host name. If you change the drop-down box to Map MAC to Friendly Name, it will also automatically change the assignment dialog:
Dial-up session not recording all sessions

1. Sorry this is not reproducible. Unless you can identify when exactly that happens, I am afraid I cannot fix it. 2. Make sure you have selected the correct network interface to monitor.

Of course, it's right there
12 years ago, by Andrew in NetWorx Forum
Unfortunately I have no control over and cannot fix this issue as it's caused by a third-party driver NetWorx uses. There is a workaround though: 1. Backup your usage. 2. Uninstall NetWorx. 3. Reinstall NetWorx with the Install LAN traffic filtering driver option unticked. 4. Install WinPCap if you need to filter out local traffic. Restart NetWorx and choose your network adapter marked
Problem with v 5.2.7 and TL-PS310U printer server

Try the following: 1. Backup your usage. 2. Uninstall version 5.2.2. 3. Install version 5.2.7 with the Install LAN traffic filtering driver option unchecked. 4. Install WinPCap and restart NetWorx. 5. Now select your adapter in the drop down list. It will be marked as "Ignore local traffic".

Is this all connected as follows? <USB dongle> - <Your Computer with Connectify> - <Another computer accessing the Internet via your computer> If so, selecting the USB dongle should really work. Try selecting the actual 3G device, rather than "All dial-up connection".

This is quite strange. I was reported a similar case, however it remains unreproducible and a mystery. Have you got any third-party Windows shell or skins installed, or something like this?
