Private Office Network Instant Messaging and Collaboration without a Server
Private Office Network Instant Messaging and Collaboration without a Server
(PRWEB) February 7, 2005
Barefoot Productions has released NetChat version 2.6, a Windows peer-to-peer network instant message and communications system that lets you chat securely in real-time on your LAN, without having a server running. The program provides simple, direct network communications that allow one-on-one private chats with other LAN users.
NetChat is a true peer-to-peer chat program, and requires neither a server nor other software to be installed. No Internet connection is required.
The program features a rich array of configuration settings, similar to the Instant Messaging applications that run on a server. You can even customize your user name and appearance icons. Since NetChat runs on your LAN and is insulated from outside connections, it provides the safety, security and privacy that are often lacking on Instant Messaging systems.
In addition to providing instant communications, NetChat may be used as an electronic office in/out board. You can see immediately when other users are in the office and available.
New features in v2.6 include emoticon support, message encryption and the ability to log message history for each chat conversation. Preset messages may also be created to prevent re-typing of messages.
Whether you’re looking for a simple and secure way to provide instant messaging among people on your LAN, a handy way to empower your office manager with instant information about employees’ whereabouts, or an easy way for friends and colleagues to chat securely, NetChat provides the tools that you need.
NetChat pricing starts at $ 29.95 for a two-user license and may be purchased securely online from Barefoot Productions at http://www.barefootinc.com/. Multi-user discounts and a 30-day trial version are available. The program runs under Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/2003 Server and requires an Ethernet network card configured on a LAN. NetChat uses the TCP/IP protocol and works with fixed or dynamic IP addresses on an Ethernet network.

Cisco 1131A/B/G Access Point under water and still works!
This is a Cisco 1131A/B/G Access Point AFTER a corporate office building flood. This access point actually was dried and placed in rice (yes rice) to extract the remaining water. The access point booted back up and went back into production servicing wireless clients.
This is the best of the best when it comes to wireless network infrastructure products; the Cisco 1131A/B/G Access Point. This access point is a special access point in that it has integrated antennas to retain a sleek and compact look while performing enterprise grade wireless services for data, voice and video. The color ring actually changes color depending on what wireless clients are connected to it, giving network administrators instant information on who is utilizing the corporate wireless network.

Video review of Fonera 2.0n, the best value WiFi router, NAS and home server
I am a big fan of FON. It enables you to have free access to a million WiFi hotspots in the world in exchange for sharing your own WiFi at home with your neighbors. FON routers broadcast 2 WiFi signals, one is a personal WPA-password protected WiFi SSID and the other is the open WiFi SSID for sharing your Internet connection using the FON DNS authentication login page so people are not able to do illegal things anonymously on your WiFi.
This newest Fonera 2.0n router is much more than just a WiFi router. It now comes with a powerful embedded processor and a USB host connector so that you can connect USB hard drives, USB dongles, USB printers/webcams and other USB peripherals directly to your router using a USB 2.0 hub and thus have those peripherals always connected to your home local network as well as to the whole Internet. Fonera 2.0n lets you install certain applications developed open-source such as a BitTorrent downloader based on Transmission, Youtube/Picasa/Flickr/Facebook video and picture uploaders, Rapidshare/Megaupload downloaders or just run FTP, Samba, Upnp file servers locally on your local network or remotely over the Internet so you can stream all your multimedia files from any other WiFi hotspot that you may access all over the Web.
The use that I am wanting to have with my new Fonera 2.0n is to constantly have access to Terrabytes of my personal multimedia files from all over the world, any of which streamed using my 2mbit/s or faster home Internet broadband connection. That 2mbit/s upload connection which I have at home, should let me remotely stream DVD quality movies. This currently works fine using any laptop copying the FTP URL into VLC media player “Open URL” feature. I am hoping to soon have this work on my Archos 5 Internet Tablet with Android, so that I would easily be able to remotely stream my personal movies and music hosted at my home on my Fonera 2.0n from any Internet access point in the world using that.
Cloud storage will eventually be able to host everyones massive amounts of personal multimedia files. Though as ones options are today to use Cloud storage services from Google or Amazon, to host a Terrabyte of personal data on the cloud would cost $1800 per year on Google App Engine, same price at Amazon S3, those prices are just not workable at all if you just want to host 1 Terrabyte of your multimedia files on the web. A Terrabyte hard drive only costs about $80 in the US or 80€ in Europe, add to that the 79€ Fonera 2.0n, and that is all it will cost you (other than the power consumption of the USB hard drive) to have access to stream from your Terrabyte of data anytime you want from anywhere you want, as long as you have got enough upload speed from your home to support the streaming of that data.
Another feature that is really cool, is the Firefox Add-On the FON DownloadHelper, which can automatically launch the download of .torrent files to the BitTorrent client of your Fonera 2.0n router, directly from when you click on the .torrent file from within Firefox. And you can launch your BitTorrent downloads locally when you are at home or remotely using your laptop from anywhere in the world. And when the BitTorrent downloads are finished, you can immediately stream your downloaded video, music contents locally or remotely as well. I am hoping to soon see a FON DownloadHelper extension for Google Chrome as well as an Android application so that when I click on .torrent files in Android, that it also remotely launch the torrent downloads on my router onto my always connected Terrabyte USB hard drive.
If you are considering to have a Network Attached Storage in your home, if you are considering to get a WiFi 802.11n router, if you are interested in hosting a remote FTP server and BitTorrent client in your router in your home, and run a print server and webcam, if you are considering joining the FON WiFi-sharing community, then I would definitely recommend that you check out the Fonera 2.0n and follow the latest developments about it in the FON Discussion Boards.
