Hamachi- a program for creating a direct connection between two computers via the Internet. The created virtual network will support almost all the capabilities of a conventional local network, including providing file sharing (in this case, a local network must be configured on the machines) and network games, running web or ftp servers. Moreover, neither installed firewalls nor routers will interfere with this.

After starting the program, you will see something like this (initially there will be no names and names of networks in the window)
After installation and launch, press the button. We press there Join Existing network (join an existing network) and enter the name and password for the network.
- If next to the name of another user there is a green dot or a star, then the connection with him is established.
- If the green dot is flashing, then the link is in the process of installation.
- If a light circle appears around the green point, it means that information is being exchanged with this user.
- If there is a yellow dot next to the username, it means that the direct connection could not be established.
- If there is a blue down arrow next to the username, it means that the direct connection could not be established, and the connection is going through the Hamachi server, which leads to high response times and low throughput.
- If the username suddenly began to turn yellow, and then darken, this means that the connection with him is lost (most likely, the computer or the Internet is turned off without leaving Hamachi)

Installation instructions:
Take Resident Evil 5 as an example:
1. Download Hamachi ..

5. We create a network.
6. We set the name and password for the network.
7. We invite the person with whom you will play. That is, you must give him a name and password (a password so that unnecessary ones do not enter) the network, and he enters them to enter the Hamachi network.
8. Download teknogods-XLive.
9. Unpack the program to any directory.
10. Run teknohelper.exe.
11. Choose one of two things:
If you are a server, then click the "automatic mode (host)" button.

If you are a client (the one who will log into the server), then press the button "automatic mode (client)".

12. Start the game.
.
13. Server creation:
We go into the game\u003e Start\u003e Play\u003e Select a chapter / New game / Continue\u003e Set the network settings (MANDATORY SPECIFY PAIRING MODE AS "FREE")\u003e Press the "Start game" button.
After clicking this button, you will be taken to the equipment menu (it is considered that the server has been created).
We are waiting for someone to log into your server.
14. Connection:
Go to the game\u003e Start\u003e Play\u003e Enter the game\u003e Select player\u003e Start search
You will be taken to the local servers browser. Here you will see the servers.
Before entering the server, you need to press the F12 key on your keyboard. You will hear a beep (the girl will say "working").
After you enter the server, you MUST (!) Press the F12 button again to prevent the crash from the game. You will hear a beep (the girl will say "transfer complete"). When you get to the equipment menu, then it is considered that you are on the server.
Press the "Ready" button when you are ready to play.

Some conditions require the creation of a virtual network between two remote computers connected to the Internet. And if especially difficult tasks are not foreseen to be performed, then using Windows or other servers can be not only costly, but also difficult to maintain.

In this case, a program like Hamachi comes to the rescue (there is a Russian version), which allows in a few steps and in a matter of minutes to create your own VPN connection between two computers on the Internet.

You can download the latest version of hamachi from our website, at the bottom of this publication.

Hamachi uses UDP protocol, and is stable and secure enough to transfer files and data over the network. In fact, it emulates a local network, and allows you to perform any tasks as if two remote computers are on a single local network.

Hamachi setup

Once you have downloaded the hamachi program, it can be easily customized to suit your needs. It is possible to combine two remote computers in a short time and work in the same way as in a local network. Thanks to hamachi, you can enjoy games, transferring files, using printers and much more.

The program is safe to use and completely eliminates data loss or leakage. To maintain security, encryption is used, each computer must be authenticated to work, and NAT is used inside the virtual network to issue virtual internal IP addresses.

Also, those applications that work in the local network will work in the VPN-networks of the program. It is enough to specify in the settings the network emulated by Hamachi.

Program Hamachi in Russian very often used by gamers for that. To bypass the licensed disc protection system, or play outdated games over the network. Globally, the capabilities of this program are very extensive. And make it easy to create your own VPN. This allows two or more computers to communicate with each other directly over an Internet connection, which also allows for faster data transfer speeds and securely.

The program is distributed free of charge and is available for download on the official website of the developers, but we also post it for you via a direct link.

— Application for creating virtual networks

LogMeIn's Hamachi software is a convenient and easy-to-learn tool for creating private virtual networks. With its help, you can not only organize a kind of local network, but also get a completely legal "white" IP-address. And if in the first case everything is quite clear - on the local network you can safely share files, play multiplayer games or open access to your devices, then we will have to decipher the second point a little. Today, many providers use only a few dozen "white" IP addresses in their network, so as not to strain the network equipment and not pay extra money to rent the address space. For most users, they give out the so-called "gray" (internal) network addresses.

At this point, the problems begin: how to "reach out" to the desired user in such a network, how to go to his "ball" or how to connect to his game server? This is where the Hamachi program comes to the rescue, or rather one of its capabilities - to provide the computer on which it is installed with a "white" IP address and, with the help of its servers, broadcast it to the World Wide Web.

Well, we figured out the theory. Let's get started and see how to use Hamachi. By tradition, let's start with the application installation process.

1. Installing the program

The Hamachi installation package can be obtained in several ways: from our website, take it from third-party resources, or get it on the program's official website after registering in advance. Naturally, we strongly advise you to use the software only from trusted "suppliers", ie. download it from our portal.

In any case, regardless of your choice, we would recommend registering on the developer's page. It literally takes a few minutes of your precious time, but adds many useful tools to your arsenal. Go to the application developer page and fill in the required fields:

After entering your personal data, you will be able to access the LogMeIn software download page .:

And cunning developers will show you step by step how and what to do:

After that, you will see a summary page of the registered account, which displays the main features and characteristics of those installed using the LogMeIn software. connections: who established these connections, who connected, when and for what purpose. Agree, it is convenient to always have such information at hand!

But back to the Hamachi program. So, you have downloaded the installation package from our website. What's next? Feel free to launch it and follow the prompts of the installer:

Installing the application is more than trivial, we will not dwell on all its stages. We only emphasize that if you are not a fan of additional software, then at paragraph

do something like this, i.e. uncheck the agreements on installing dumb and incomprehensible applications))

Congratulations! Installation completed successfully!

It's time to start customizing the application.

2. Program setting

We launch the installed program using the shortcut that appears on the desktop and see that the Hamachi interface is completely russified. For this, mentally add one more point to the developer's piggy bank))

As the main application window advises us, we press the "Enable" button in the upper left corner:

We are asked to enter the name of the computer on which the program is installed. We enter. For example, "Laptop":

In the next step, Hamachi assigns us an external address, which is displayed to the right of the "Enable" button. Now we can start creating a new virtual network with a clear mind. Click "Create a new network"

and fill in the required fields of the network settings dialog:

After you finish entering the data and press the "Create" button, an icon of the created network and its network status - "online" will appear in the main application window:

You can check the network settings of the new connection and its parameters through the standard "Network Connections" snap-in of the operating system. For example, if you are the owner of the "seven" (Windows 7), then do the following: go to the "Control Panel", go to the "Network and Sharing Center" tab and on the left click the link "Change adapter settings":

You should see something like this:

A new connection appeared with the name "Hamachi" and the status "Connected".

This completes the configuration of the program's operation in the direct IP address allocation mode. Now your friends and acquaintances can easily find your network resources or a game server on the Internet.

The same steps should be repeated for other computers that you plan to connect to a private virtual network or use for cooperative multiplayer games.

LogMeIn Hamachi is a free program for creating your own VPN (Virtual Private Network) networks. Thanks to its simple interface, Hamachi allows even a novice user who has no knowledge of network settings to create their own secure network of computers connected via the Internet, similar in functionality to a physical local network. In such a network, computers use a third node to establish a connection with each other, which acts as a router so that computers can only find each other, and information is transmitted directly between computers. In this case, the interacting PCs can be behind a NAT or firewall.

Networks created using the LogMeIn Hamachi program can operate in two modes: unmanaged and managed.

Unmanaged mode allows you and your friends or colleagues to create a VPN network in just a few minutes. However, it will only be possible to use a mesh network, and centralized web management functionality will not be available.

Controlled mode allows you to create a VPN network with one of three topologies: mesh, star, and gateway. You can deploy clients to users' computers by sending them hyperlinks, and you can centrally manage and monitor networks using the LogMeIn.com website. You can even create multiple networks and manage them easily.
... Provide remote users with secure access to your private network or LAN and resources on it through the centralized LogMeIn Hamachi gateway without changing the settings of firewalls or routers.
Organization of virtual networks with a "star" topology... Give remote users secure access to specific computers on your network from anywhere without changing firewall or router settings.
Connect all clients on the network to each other... Quickly and easily create simple virtual mesh networks that connect remote computers directly to each other, thus providing users with basic network access to all the network resources they need.
