My S3 isnt connecting with the pc , firewall is down the System is Win xp i ve a crossovercabel and the Miner is working
You need an ordinary Cat5e straight through patch lead between the S3 and your PC (or router), not a crossover cable. You should then be able to access it in IE using 192.168.1.99.
crossover CAT5e is totally FINE, I have it.
Fair enough, but it's my understanding that modern network adaptors carry out the crossover function automatically. However, I'm not sure that all of these adaptors will autosense if a crossover cable is subsequently connected. To me, the cable would be one of the first things to check in these circumstances.
Secondly, I would be interested in knowing what make and model of modem the OP is using. It might be a modem/router for all we know, obviating the need for him to buy a further router.
