I'm not sure if this is the right place but...

I can't seem to host. The main problem that's in my way is finding out my ipv4 and my gateway. When I type 'ipconfig' into command prompt I just get things like this:

As you can see, that is completely unrelated to my ipv4 and gateway.

I am operating Vista and using a wireless network with my Dell XPS laptop.

Can anyone help me?

Weird. Never seen such a thing in ipconfig.
There's programs out there where you can get your local ip address though just look for them on Google.

scroll to the top ?!...
..
that looks really fucked up ...looks like you got hundreds of (virtual) network adapters..
..
otherwise you could just right click on the connection icon in the tray bar ... > status... then switch to support page, your ip address is shown there

There is SO many of them, even when I scroll to the top it gives me the #14 one. No ipv4 or gateway.

Also I did not see a status button when I right clicked it. I saw:

Disconnect from...
Connect to a network
Turn on activity animation
Turn off notification of new networks
Diagnose and Repair
Network and Sharing center

if youre using a router, forward these ports:

TCP 6112-6119
UDP 6112-6119
Click to expand...

I'm not sure how to do all of this, but don't I need to have my gateway to do that? And then enter the gateway into like Internet Explorer, enter the passwords, and then forward those ports?

I thought I need my ipv4 and gateway, not my ip address. I can find my ip out easy by just typing "my ip address" into google. Doesn't seem to be the same case for my ipv4 and gateway.

And yes I hit okay after entering those settings :p

Reinstall network devices?
Disable network devices?
Delete all tunnels?
Disable ipv6? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929852
Cant find your Ipv4? http://whatsmyip.org/

Why check in the command prompt anyways? Thats windows 95... There is "a" user interface now, for most things.

Log on to your router/modem, all computers IP's connected to it, is listed there somewhere, should be.

I thought I need my gateway too? I've got my IP now, thanks, but now how do I get my gateway?

I'm not really sure what to do after I get my gateway. Enter the gateway into internet explorer and then open the ports from there some how?

Gateway, most cases, your ip address, except the last number is 1.
Example:
Your IP: 112.122.122.123
Gateway: 112.122.122.1

But in some other cases they end with the magic number 138.

You do not even know that one to begin with? Ask your dad? Brother? Someone knows it, im sure of it. Else a short google search would have done it, searching for what? Ehm, router name/model.

The router name is Westell, and the model number is 327W. Where do I go from here? And what do I do with my gateway now that I supposedly know it.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
