TCPconnect question

[jaydeep]

i have made a program which can allow to remotely control your computer via the internet from any place...the problem is that i connect to the internet via a wireless network which is subnetted from a common ip...

like my ip is 111.231.213.124

and after subnetting it becomes... 192.168.1.2

so whenever i try to connect to my comoputer, iam unable to reach it..because the subnetted ip is local to the wireless network ..also if i try to connect to the main ip.. then also iam unable to do so...

please tell me about a way to connect to my computer in this case via tcp...

Port forwarding.

Google the term if you don't know how or what.

[jaydeep]

please elaborate how iam going to use that in autoit

[trancexx]

Show some progress.

sir its basic..gui based tcp connection with simple codes... here is the code...

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GUIStatusBar.au3>

$mainwindow=GUICreate("remote pc controller",500, 300)
$button1=GUICtrlCreateButton("CDTrayopen",30,50,60)
$button2=GUICtrlCreateButton("CDTrayclose",100,50,60)
$button3=GUICtrlCreateButton("connect",180,50,60)
$button4=GUICtrlCreateButton("disconnect",260,50,60)
$status= _GUICtrlStatusBar_Create($mainwindow)
$Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("give ip here",50,100,100,20)
_GUICtrlStatusBar_SetText($status,@IPAddress1)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    _GUICtrlStatusBar_SetText($status,@IPAddress1)
    $msg=GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg=$button3 then
        $ip=GUICtrlRead($Input1)
        TCPStartup()
        $port=1000
        $connectedsocket=TCPConnect($ip,$port)
        If @error Then
            _GUICtrlStatusBar_SetText($status,"cant connect check ip or connection")
            sleep(1000)
            
        Else
            _GUICtrlStatusBar_SetText($status,"connected")
            while 1
                _GUICtrlStatusBar_SetText($status,"connected to "&$ip)
                $msg2=GUIGetMsg()
                If $msg2=$button1 Then
                    TCPSend($connectedsocket,"1")
                    
                    _GUICtrlStatusBar_SetText($status,"send command 1")
                    sleep(1000)
                
                EndIf
                
                If $msg2=$button2 Then
                    TCPSend($connectedsocket,"2")
                    
                    _GUICtrlStatusBar_SetText($status,"sent command 2")
                   sleep(1000)
                EndIf
            
                If $msg2=$button4 Then
                    TCPSend($connectedsocket,"3")
                    sleep(1000)
                    ;TCPShutdown()
                    
                    _GUICtrlStatusBar_SetText($status,"disconnected")
                    sleep(1000)
                    ExitLoop
                EndIf
            WEnd
        EndIf
    EndIf
        
        If $msg= -3 Then
         Exit
        EndIf
                
        
WEnd

u just enter the ip and connect ...

it works well on a normal internet connection but in case of a subnetted ip from a main network /...like a wireless internet connection.., it is not able to connect... which is relevant since here all computer share a local main ip... which is subnetted...

Jay is talking about port forwarding on your router.

[LarryDalooza]

Your wireless router has a web page for configuration. Point a browser to http://192/168.1.1 and configure forwarding of the TCPConnect "port" to 192.168.1.2
