Hi
Is there somewhere hidden the ability to view the chart type layout of the the network that you use to be able to simply do under windows 7
In Windows 7 you could see under Network & Sharing center Basic Network info and then click "View Network Map" or similar
and it gave an overview of your devices, routers etc.
Windows 8 this has gone, even the Basic info seems lacking ,nothing now about Private, Public, work etc (I guess this is somehere but don't need at moment so not going looking) but just seems poor.
Anyway this feature was very useful, especially as I often set my network up, change routers, new equipment etc. and when you add a new router if it is not set to DHCP auto (which I always switch off as they are always a AP) you cannot see what the router
IP is, usually on a different ip range and often not standard. Sound like a rarely used feature but I frequently need this, especially factory resets etc.
Why on earth would they remove this feature!!
I am so fed up with "new improved" software/hardware taking away features that were so useful and adding stuff that is pointless. Things you thought you could do in a few minutes & always could, suddenly take so much longer, thats progress for you
Rant over,
But does anyone have any ideas?
