I do not use TeamViewer, however the first result on Google gave me this link: http://support.teamviewer.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=40

I hope it is what you are looking for

I think you do need to connect to their IP as opposed to their teamviewer ID though.

You can also test teamviewer by connecting to ID 12345 and typing in the password shown.

Sirius

always happens when you post different text to what you googled

i was thinking pcs not network

now realise that is the best way of explaining it

i've just connected to one of my cabled pcs (i have 2)
from my ancient wireless laptop
and teamviewer works (of course)

it produces different ids and passwords

i'm sure i tried this before but from the 2 cabled ones
and had the same id and password so a no go

i'll double check tomorrow and post back

thanks guys

you can run it on two pcs on the same network

and you can connect to it to different pcs on the same network, from outside that network

(im not really sure what you are asking though )
