    Can I use NET Render to connect my desktop computer and laptop to render? If so, how hard is it and can anyone point me in the right direction on setting it up? I read the Net Render user guide, but I need a little insight on how to set up a network with static IPs. Thank you.

    I’m looking into this at the moment as well. I was wondering about using crossover cables in series between three boxes thus leaving the router setup out of the equation. From what I’ve read, using two computers is the same as using one, since one needs to be configured as a server and the workhorses as clients. I’d love to learn this is wrong, so please correct me if it is.
    Have you seen Rendercore’s prices. I’m thinking it’s a very viable option as well. I do Architectural renderings and what takes me 6 hours takes them less than a minute and the charge was .30 USD.

    hi, i can’t find the pdf for netrender, but I am wondering if someone can help me get this set up on a lan: i have 3 or 4 machines on the lan via router. So i set the c4d machine as the server and all others i autostart render client on? then when i do a render in c4d, it automagically uses the resources of the other machines and not the c4d machine? thanks!!!
