Crowsoft's LANoi: The freedom of LAN over Internet
LANoi helps simplify networking in an otherwise complex world of IP addresses, ports, router port forwards and dialog boxes, all of which confuse and sometimes even prevent the user from properly enjoying the features required to share files over the Internet. Although there are other big players who provide the same service with more or less similar features, what makes LANoi different from the rest is its price and simplicity. Believe it or not, LANoi being a software product is an absolutely free-to-use service which helps you save a monthly bill when compared to other services. Furthermore, it also removes all other preliminary conditions of usage such as filling up registration forms and other mandatory delays. LANoi is also faster when compared to other applications since it’s entirely P2P (Peer-2-Peer) dependent.
LANoi is basically utility software, which enables you to stay in touch with your family and friends through the Internet. The software is a clever integration of already available applications that support networking such as Windows Desktop Connection, Windows Remote Assistance and Windows Media Streaming.
We are not re-inventing the wheel by writing entirely new application software which works wonders over the Internet. We are only porting or port-forwarding existing applications to work best for you over the Internet thereby enhancing your networking experience as a user and while at the same time, delivering you optimum quality free of cost.

How does LANoi work?
To connect to another remote PC the user first needs to create an invitation file through an invitation wizard, this also provides the user with a password. The person with the right password and invitation file alone gets to gain access to the application session shared by the invite creator. For example, if a user wants to have a gaming session of Quake 3 Arena with his friends that has limited ports, (through which the game hosting servers are accessible) the user needs to create a session with these ports such that only those ports are available for the invitees to connect to him using the application software. This way the invitees only get to access specific sessions like gaming or chatting and are denied access to other sessions using the same invitation file. Meaning, there can only be one session per invitation file and therefore cannot be used interchangeably by users for having more sessions with the same sender at a given time.
LANoi's main features include:
Play:
Enjoy your favorite LAN games with your friends over the Internet like never before.
LANoi enables you to play all multiplayer (MMORPG) games over the Internet, which you may have already enjoyed playing via a local area network or LAN. In fact, it promises you the same gaming experience enjoyed over LAN, but this time, by allowing you to play it online via the Internet. For this LANoi creates a virtual LAN environment for your application to work over the Internet as if they were all wired together to one computer.
Share:
Now view, share files, chat and troubleshoot problems for your friends and colleagues from your desktop.
LANoi can be used as a sharing device for files and presentations between PCs by corporate during official meetings and seminars. Apart from desktop screen sharing for troubleshooting purposes, the application also equips the user with instant messaging or IMs, text messaging and audio chat facilities. While most software require some sort of registration before allowing the user to try out the product, LANoi is a software product which works over the web directly and doesn’t require a server for maintenance. This is because the application uses Microsoft’s in-built P2P infrastructure to connect two PCs together and therefore comes free without any monthly charges.
Control:
Print, copy and control any remotely connected PC from your computer screen.
Gain access to a remote system from your desktop screen and perform all operations as you would when you log into a computer. Unlike other popular screen viewing applications, LANoi provides complete access to a remote user by allowing access to the PC’s system resources where the user can do almost anything from configuring and setting up a printer to accessing disk drives to even copying and listening to audio files without ever going to the remote PC.
RDP is widely used by Windows users to access files in a local LAN environment either within office or at home. The advantage LANoi has over other similar remote desktop applications is its ability to make RDP work over the Internet between office and home networks. Most remote access solutions are slower than Windows RDP, which is exactly why LANoi is faster and more reliable than other such services.
Streaming at a screaming speed!
Watch and share audio-visuals played at real time with amazingly low bandwidth consumption.
Crowsoft is proud to present LANoi’s latest addition to the world of network sharing – Streaming. Now use the application to stream both audio and video from your home PC to any PC available on the Internet. You can directly stream DVD/AVI files at varying bitrates from 100 kbps to 700 kbps. Go ahead and share an entire MP3 album with your friends and family no matter where they are. The application also supports streaming of Webcams and TV tuner card screens allowing users to watch their favorite TV shows or talk to their loved ones back at home through their office PCs.
Streaming solutions presently copy an entire MP3 files folder to the local system for playback at a later period, which is both time consuming as well as unreliable. Whereas LANoi streams data directly making optimum usage of the Internet to deliver high quality audio/video content to your computers while utilizing a negligible amount of Internet bandwidth. The user therefore gets to watch and listen to unmatched quality streaming via the Internet in no time.
