OK, so I'm quite new to networking in max and looking at maxhole. It works great with two machines hardwired onto the same LAN, but if I create a network on one machine and join it from another machine it doesn't work. Someone said it worked for them on an old post (2 years ago), but I'm having no joy. I also tried using net.udp send and recv and targeting the machines IP directly, but it said "no route to host" or "host is down". Should this work with computer-to-computer networks or is there another way to do this?

I'm putting in an order for an airport base unit which I presume will solve the problem anyway, but I'd still be interested to know.

Many thanks

This should work. Check your firewall settings, which often mess up network communication in maxmsp for me, especially in Leopard.....

Firewall is off anyway, and it works when connected to the LAN rather than computer-to-computer so should be fine I think?

Target machine is on 10.4 and sending machine is on 10.5

don't know if this is related, but i always had huge annoying networking issues full stop between 10.4 and 10.5, because 10.5 is/was such a car crash of an operating system. maybe google networking issues between these two os's as well?... or upgrade 10.4 machine to 10.5?

Thanks for the input pid. I can remote control the target machine from the source over the computer-to-computer connection, so would suggest that its not a networking problem?

maxhole computer-to-computer network?
