What's your Home Network Map like?

Hi folks

Well you can likely tell I'm in limbo and between tasks a VM update and installing WHS2011 but in setting up my server again, I was looking at the network map layout and thought mmmm don't think we have ever done this as a show and tell before, so its either going to be interesting to see others "home" setups or be a interesting as a wet kipper!


To get a network map in Vista and Win7 the Network and Sharing Centre then click See Full Map for XP dont think it does the same as Vista/7 sadly and dont think mapping network drives works the same but you can try HERE

Mine

Main Desktop, Laptop, Netbook and WHS2011 server, the bottom stuff is a network enabled TV that's in my bedroom.

LOL k...I'll play.

I'm a little concerned about what 'Unknown' is. :-D Most likely it's the Wii or one of the kids iTouch's though.

@Laura, yeah its likely to be a media device, do they have Blackberries? but because its between the Switch and your PC it could be another switch/router.

@Satrow..... ohhhhhh always one...

@ Augie, well thats more impressive than many will be, at least you have two PCs on their, and BUGGER I forgot to turn on my wireless printer...... NUTS! *finds nearest vino bottle to drown sorrows* hehehehehe

But thread did better than I thought, at least all have posted something interesting, Laura's ? is a puzzle!

 

Re: Whats your Network Map like?

Indeed it would and sad that those down show up, I was going to try a Win Home Server 2011 install in VM to test a few things out as in my Windows 7 Phone has an "APP" for connecting to a WHS2011 box...how cool is that! but I need to install a full dedicated version on a PC which is going on now, so that will allow me to access my server from my mobile and get files off it, as WinMo7 has Office I can open Office docs and also with Zune stream media off the server.

Things just dont get any better than this for a techophile.

 

WOW that's a neat network setup Caliban Love the cans, should have used cardboard boxes instead.

Actually when I noticed the thumbnail I thought OMG I want that network map graphic look!! then opened it and hahahahahahahhaa cool.

 

Sibeer, impressive and I like the look (cuteness as Augie puts it ) of that network magic, need to try that app out too as the general map in Win7 missed off some of my devices that connect also.
