Have you encountered this situation?
In the peer network of Windows 98 and Windows 95, accessing other computers through online neighbors sometimes requires refreshing many times to connect.
Accessing other computers in Windows 2000 Server or Windows 2000 Advanced Server, especially when accessing Windows 98, is slow, and you have to wait 30 to 50 seconds.
It's slow enough when you go to the Internet. Now even the LAN is so slow, what should I do? Let’s work with the author to solve the problem of “slow” in LAN.
The problems in the network mainly lie in hardware and software. The "slow" problem in LAN must also be solved from these two aspects.
1. Hardware: First, let’s “be tough”. The hardware that determines the network speed is nothing more than network cards, hubs and network cables.
1.Network Card
The early Ethernet cards were mostly 10M, and now 10M/100M network cards have replaced 10M network cards, and gigabit network cards have also been released. So, if you still use a 10M network card, I advise you to change it.
2. Hub
A hub is the central element of the network, and all data must be distributed to other computers through it. Because the ordinary hub, HUB, lags behind the switched hub (switch), it is much faster to use switches when funds are sufficient. However, it is best not to use some miscellaneous switches. It is better to spend more money to buy 3COM or D-LINK. If the funds are not enough, it is best to use better HUB.
3. Network cable
Don’t underestimate network cables. Miscellaneous network cables and some famous brand network cables such as Amp have significantly different transmission speeds, especially in a 100M network. The production of crystal heads is also the key. Many people think that as long as the order of the crystal heads at both ends of the line is the same, they do not know that the "winding" of the four strands in the five-type twisted pair wires is different. The author once went to a school to help solve the problem of intermittent network. When I saw that the line sequence of the crystal head was wrong, I re-exercised and solved the problem smoothly. There are two commonly used standards for making crystal heads T586A and T856B.
2. Software
In small networks, the efficiency of using the NETBEUI protocol is high. Therefore, try to use TCP/IP and NETBEUI protocols in the LAN, or only use the NETBEUI protocol, because in a peer network, it is enough to have NETBEUI. Regardless of the protocol used, it is necessary to ensure that the protocol on the two computers that are mutually accessible is the same. If it is different, you can add the protocol by using the following method.
/news/22/
Right-click "Online Neighbor" to select "Properties", press "Add" in the "Network" dialog box, and select "Protocol" in it. Select the required protocol, to enable your computer to be accessed by other computers, and to select "File and Print Sharing" to hook "Allow other users to access my files".
Having done the above points can basically solve the problem in Windows 98. However, it is still very slow to access other computers through online neighbors in Windows 2000 Server. In fact, we can bypass the Internet neighbors of Windows 2000 to access other computers. Here I provide three solutions:
Method 1
Enter "Computer Name Shared Name" or "IP Address Shared Name" in run to access shared folders on other computers. (This is the fastest and most convenient method)
Method 2
Right-click "My Computer" or "Neighbors" to select "Mapping Network Drive", select a drive letter in "Drive", and enter your computer name and share name in URL format in "Path". Then access the shared folder as if you were accessing the drive.
Method 3
Create a shortcut on the desktop to run commands in Method One.
All three methods can quickly access other computers on the network.
Because of my limited level, I only briefly describe the possible problems and some solutions. There may be other more convenient solutions in actual application. This article aims to attract attention and hopes to solve some practical problems for readers.

Let me introduce to you the working principle of online neighbors: browse services, I hope everyone can gain something! !
"Browsing services" are very important, and many users have developed a serious dependence on "network neighbors".
After a user successfully logs into the network, the following is usually to access network resources. In order to help users find network resources, Microsoft Network uses a mechanism called "browsing services" to complete network resource search and positioning. The customer browsing process is as follows:
Add the server to the browsing list by posting announcements to the main browser.
The main browser and the backup browser share the server (domain) list.
The client retrieves the list of computers that backup the browser from the main browser.
The client and the backup browser contact to retrieve the server list.
The client and the server contact to retrieve a list of shared resources on the server.
On the network, in order to effectively locate network resources, the browsing service of the Microsoft Windows network must be participated and provided by a specific "browsing server".
The roles of browsing servers are divided into "(domain) primary browsing server", "backup browsing server", and "potential browsing server".
The browsing server is usually the computer that starts first, and can then be automatically changed or handed over through elections.
Every 15 minutes, the main browser of each subnet announces itself to other main browsers on the subnet.
Every 12 minutes, each domain master browser contacts WINS to get a list of all domainname<1B> domains.
Every 12 minutes, each main browser (subnet) contacts the domain master browser to update the browsing table.
Every 12 minutes, each backup browser contacts its local master browser to retrieve and update the browsing table.
All computers with server components (that is, the ability to share network resources) declare themselves to the main browser in their local domain.
Browser elections occur when the local subnet cannot find the main browser or initialize the domain controller. The election determines the outcome based on the operating system version number and identity.
And most of the traffic in this process is broadcast traffic. This is why Wins is needed in a multi-subnet environment to use "network neighbors" normally. It is also why we are trying our best to use "network neighbors" as little as possible in the enterprise network. Its working process determines that in relatively large and dynamically changing networks, it is destined to be unreliable, has many problems, and brings chaos.
The browsing service has no direct control options, except for Win9x that can control whether the computer becomes a browsing server in "Network Properties - File and Print Sharing Service Properties", which must be done by modifying the registry. Here are some registry control parameters: (Tested only under Windows NT/Windows 2000) Pay attention to case!
Hide specific computers in network neighbors:
Although this can be achieved by turning off the "server" service, the way to provide shared resources is also lost. You can modify the registry:
SYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesLanmanServerParameters
Create or modify:
"Hidden"=dword:1/0
1 is hidden. After being hidden, it can still be accessed through the UNC path name.
Then there is the registry key that controls whether it becomes a "browser":
Win2000 computer, modify the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesBrowserParameters
"MaintainServerList"=REG_SZ:YES/NO/AUTO
"YES" is used as a browsing server, "NO" does not act, and "AUTO" is automatically.
Win9x computer, control panel version-network-file and print sharing service properties:
Main control browsing server: invalid/valid/automatic
It is recommended not to set win9x computers to be valid and set computers that are frequently restarted or disconnected from the network to invalid to improve the work of network neighbors and improve network efficiency.
For further "browsing services" information, please refer to the Microsoft TCP/IP white paper and other information.
