I was trying to take one apart and clean out some gunk but I can't get the exhaust blades off. Guess I'll have to just blow it out the best I can. Painted my headers with some sh!tty Duplicolor blue paint and BBQ'd them. As you can see I missed a few spots. Will get those spots when I start it up. Still plugging along. It's getting cold outside and I can't pull my car into the house
My pics in my other post won't show up anymore. I hooked up a router for another system and it won't give me my old IP. But if I disconnect it and just run off the modem I get my old IP back. Pisses me off. Anyone know how I can get my old IP or am I stuck with the new one cause of the router? Thanks.

befor what you where seeing was the ip from your isp now you are geting the ip frome the router it is pbly some thing like 192.168.0.2 or some thing you still pbly have the same ip from your isp but now it is geting sent to your router

 

My router IP is 192.168.1.1 the IP the router gives this computer is 192.168.1.100. My actuall IP from my modem or AT&T is 12.229.136.3 but my IP use to be 12.229.137.41. If I unhook the router and just use the cable modem I'll get this IP "12.229.137.41" back again. In order for me to even have a web server I had to enable the port in my router cause it has a firewall. The only way I see to get my original IP back is to use a hub before the router. I've tried everything. I guess I'm just stuck with the new IP. And having this router also slows down the web server which is irritating. Even if I disable the firewal it's still slow. I'm using Windows 2000 PRO and it won't let me share drives. If I had Win 2k server I could. Is there any trick or a registry entry I could add to make win 2k share drives. There was a registry hack for NT4 to make it a server. The only way I can share a drive on my win 2k machine is to setup an FTP server and I really don't like doing that.

You need to setup IP forwarding on your router. I have a router here and in order for me to do certain things I had to setup certain ports to be forwarded to my local IP. Very easy to do. Just enable IP forwarding and forward all requests via http ports to be forwarded to 192.168.1.100. Should work like a charm. Been there, done that. I am running a linksys Cable/DSL router. Basically, there are 2 network cards in the router. The Cable network sees one of the cards and assigns it the true IP address. The other network card (192.168.1.1) is used for communication on your local network. When one of your local computers requests information it goes through a 'gateway' to access the internet. This 'gateway' is the router. The router controls the flow of information between your local network with pseudo IP addresses with the real network (the cable company).

I have forwarding already setup. I want my original IP back. Not the new one and I'm not talking about the router IP. Thanks.

You can share drives on 2kpro. I have had my computer and the wifes (2kpro) sharing hardrives with no problems.

Have both computers Named, eg Hanzel and Gretal, have them in the same workgroup.
reboot.
To share drives. Open My computer.
Right click on the drive. click on sharing.
checkmark : share this drive.

The share name will come up like C$
rename it as C (remove the $ )
leave comment blank
select max users
click new share.

that should do it.

Goto the second computer.
open network places
computers near me.

you should see all computers in workgroup.

You can't get your original IP back. The router gets this IP from the cable network. You're looking for the wrong solution and wanting the wrong thing. Unless I am understanding your needs incorrectly? If you forward http requests to your web server then when you attempt to access the ORIGINAL IP via http then this request will be forwarded to your web server and it will respond accordingly ... just like it actually had that IP. I should know. Like I said - BEEN THERE, DONE THAT.

Before I got the router I had an IP address. I got the router, my IP changed. Explain why? When I just use the modem I get my old IP back. When I hook up the router I get a different IP. WTF. The router must be saying something different to the ISP then the modem to get a different IP. Now if I had just now started a web server I wouldn't give a **** what the IP is cause it won't change. But since I had one long ago with my original IP before I got the router it's just a major pain in my azz.

Brad...

 

I already explained it. Let me try to explain it in easier terms for you.

1) The cable network assigns you an IP.
2) With the ROUTER in the loop the ROUTER now gets the original IP address.
3) The ROUTER then assigns your computer a fake/dummy IP address.
4) Your computer communicates with the router through the dummy IP address and the router communicates with the cable network by using the REAL IP address.

Get it? Doooooooood - just configure your router to forward http requests directed toward the ORIGINAL IP ADDRESS to go to the dummy IP address that gets assigned to your computer.

I can't state this any clearer for you. I am currently doing this on my computer and it works. I also use to manage and setup networks so I do know what I am talking about here.

Now let me make this as simple for you as I possibly can.
Once upon a time I had an IP address. It was a very happy IP. Then one day I got a router. The mean old router raped my old IP address and gave me this POS IP. Now. I know how the router works. It has an IP I can use for the webserver. It has to. OK. I know it gives my computers dummy addresses. No problem. But even though I'm using a router the "REAL" IP is there. Are you with me? Good. My problem is. The real IP in the router should be the same as the IP I have without the router. In the router configuration I can click on the status and that is where my real IP is. Without the real IP I COULDN'T setup a webserver. Right? Right. So my question is. Why the F*ck does my IP get changed? On another note. My POS modem took a big **** on me so now I have another modem with another sh!tty IP. I guess I'm just gonna have to let go of my old IP and take it in the azz. I hate AT&T. Thanks for your support.

Okay, you guys got me all messed up with the router, IP, stuff. As far as the turbone wheel, and shaft. Take off the turbine housing. Put the little oblong looking nut thing on the end of the turbine wheel in a vice. carefully tighten down. Now take the compressor wheel nut off, and presto it comes apart. Believe me, I tried every wrench, and vice grips I hade with the housing on, and it just won't work. I called our engineer for Honeywell/Garrett Turbos and that is how he told me to take it apart. It worked great for me.

 

HAHAHAHA, that was some funny ****.

now that is how every American's kitchen should look

 

Your router and your PC have different Ethernet adapters with different MAC addresses. So when you unhook one and hook up the other the DHCP server is still has the lease out for that IP with your other adapter. You could release the IP of the one you want and hope you get it back with the router but dont count on it. Unless you pay extra for a static IP expect it to change on ya. You have cable right? I have DSL and they force IP changes on me every week or so "Bastards". There is a site www.dyndns.org where you can register for free and download a client that detects when you IP changes and automatically updates their site with you new IP. Presto magico now all you have to remember is "yourdomainname.dyndns.org." That's what I do and I can now host http, ftp, remote access, & ect through my router by port forwarding to my internal boxes.

By the way cool project! I have been following your progress, keep up the good work. It is inspiring and giving me the bug to try my own TT project for my 79 vette. Damn engine bay is sooo cramped though! Hope this info helpes. :lala:

 

I was thinking of that MAC address at work. When I got home I changed the WAN MAC address in the router. Didn't work. Your right. If I want to stay consistent with my server, dynip is the only way to go. I going steady on the TT project. It's a lot of work. Really putting me to the test. But no prob. I will get it. I'm gonna hook it up and fire it up just to see what it's like. I'm just gonna let the turbos blow cause I don't have the carb I want yet. Just want to work out any bugs if any and see how well they drain oil.
And I want to hear those turbos. Hope they sound cool.
I should have that ready by next weekend. Work sure screws me up. I gotta decide on what carb and bonnet I need to get and what I'm gonna do for a fuel system.

Brad...

 

Fun stuff!!!! Let us all know how it pans out. Carefull not to spool them turbos up too much without them hooked up to anything, ya dont want to fry those babys! I am half way through the Hugh McGuinnis Turbo Charger book and there is a lot of good info in there for turbocharging with carbs. I plan to get the Corkey Bell book next. I am an IT manager at a community college so I get to take classes for free. I plan on taking a welding, transmission, and auto body class. That should get the vette looking good and the tranny able to hold the 475-500hp with the motor no N20. With the welding training maybe somday I'll be able to make my own TT setup. 500 + hp all the time would be nice as opposed to relying on the bottle!

 

Here's the router situation, bhaas. Your ISP assigns IP addresses via DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). This makes it very easy to connect a computer to a network (and your isp is a network, it's just a wide area network, or wan). There is a DHCP server on your ISPs network. When you connect, the DHCP server assigns you an IP address. That IP address has a lifetime to it. In most cases that lifetime is indefinite so long as the connection is maintained. After being inactive for a certain period of time, that address will get recycles. Now, your PC originally obtained an IP address from the DHCP server before you got your router, and the server dedicated that IP address to your PC. When you plug the router in, the server sees that as a new connection, and assigns it a new IP address. When you switch back to the non-router configuration, the DHCP server recognizes that as an old connection with a still valid IP assigned.

After all that, to answer your question, there's no way to get your old IP address assigned to the router. It is all handled dynamically by the DHCP server. Eventually the old IP address will get recycled into the pool of unused IP addresses (assuming you stick with the router), and eventually get assigned to somebody elses PC in all likelihood.

 

if he is running a web server from the pc dosnt he have to set up the web address so that it is conected to the new ip or some thing like that right now if one of uss punched in the addie for the web site he is running it would try and go to the old ip thus no web page but if he set it up for the new ip it would see the web server and the page would be launched.

 

That's right C4boom. Some of my posts, the pics won't show up anymore cause my IP changed. The pics in this post have my new IP so they show up. It just sucks not having everything right and not being able to see pics cause the links are broke. I should just make an actual web site and get it over with. Just too damn lazy I guess.
