Uplink
LAN hacking - am I missing something? - UplinkOS
So, here's the deal: I connect to Walker Corp.'s LAN, and get digging. I discover the whole network and try connecting to the Auth. Servers, but no matter what I spoof or where I try to connect, nothing... I can either Probe, Scan, or Spoof, but nothing can get me to connect to anything, not even terminals...
I have the Proxy and Monitoring bypassed, and the highest version of all of the LAN tools, and NOTHING.

Am I doing something wrong here?Oh, also worth noting, that I am using UplinkOS Gold.
Here's a video: https://youtu.be/9asjsOdajMs

ah
It seems you are new to uplink lan hacks
How this basically works is
YOU start a open router
Then you need to start from there hacking all the terminals and devices CONNECTED to it
You see the lines connecting each device?
I never used uplink OS but i guess, it must display where you are(most of the times, u r on the left)
Then u click on the terminal next ( CONNECTED TO YOU ) to you and you click on connect and hack it
Then you keep on doing that UNTIL you reach whatever device you want to hack

I'm new, and honestly, I've read almost EVERY guide and forum thread regarding LAN hacking in Uplink, and honestly they weren't many help - it's like my version of game doesn't work at all.

So, I'm connected to the router, as seen in the video. You say I should hack terminals which are next. However, if you watch the vid, I can't hack not only the terminals, but nothing else! No matter what I spoof...

u dont need spoof for now
Spoof is for subnet mask
Connect to the left most terminal
Its like a tree
U start from top and keep hacking until u have hacked all the branches

How...well did you read those LAN guides?

LAN_Spoof is only useful on hacked terminals prior to connection to an auth server - not as a means of...whatever you were trying to do.

To connect to another system in the LAN, you have to navigate by left clicking every intermediate system between your current point in the LAN (i.e. the router or modem you start at) and the target system. For instance, to connect to the topmost hub (the atom looking thing) you need to click on the first hub and then that hub.

I'd recommend watching some Let's Play videos of Uplink. There are some that use UplinkOS, such as this guy, for examples of how to navigate through a LAN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xd2S_w46uc4 (LAN Hacking starts at 9:55)
