Connecting at the office
W
ith greater resources at hand, you can make faster connections—and connect in more ways—while
working in the office. Connect over a corporate network, for example, for the fastest file transfers. Use a
LapLink Gold cable to synchronize your desktop and laptop before and after you travel. And take
advantage of your organization’s direct connection to the Internet for cheap connections to distant
locations.

Connect to other computers on your network
If your office is equipped with a local network (LAN), you
can connect directly to any other computer on the network
running LapLink Gold, using Connect Over LAN (Network).
Because LapLink Gold connections over networks are fast,
they are ideal for sending large amounts of data in a short
time.
Suppose it’s your job to distribute files to several computers
every Tuesday. To automate the operation, create an
Xchange Agent file by showing LapLink Gold which files to
copy and where to copy them. When Tuesday arrives, run
the Xchange Agent yourself or schedule it to run unat-
tended, at a time when the computers are usually idle.
LapLink Gold automatically connects to the computers,
transfers files to the designated folders, and disconnects, all
without assistance.
It may also be your job to maintain those computers. With-
out leaving your desk, you can use Remote Control to trou-
bleshoot problems on other computers, chatting with their
users, if necessary.

Connect your laptop to your desktop
If you take your laptop—and your work—with you when you
leave the office, you know the routine: update files on your
laptop before you leave; update files on your desktop when
you return.
To update files on either computer, attach a LapLink Gold
cable and run LapLink Gold on both computers. A connec-
tion opens automatically.
Instead of manually moving files and folders from one com-
puter to another, you can create an Xchange Agent to syn-
chronize your files and folders, so that both computers have
the latest versions of each file. You can even set the Agent
to synchronize automatically.
