You need at least two devices connected by some type of media to create a LAN. Most LANs would have a distance limitation of not more than 100 meters apart. Other than that, the computer could be placed anywhere within that distance to the other device to create the LAN.

Your computer cannot see others on the lan why?

Are you sure your on the LAN and the same subnet. Could be a number of things. Though you'll probably find its a security precaution. I use a program on all my LAN's which make each computer invisible to the other. Im assuming your just not getting a ping reply. If this is the case, it could be firewall settings. Ping the ip and ping the name (only if you have reverse dns set-up).

How make lan?

It depends under which context you intend to create a Lan connection. If you want to have a "Lan party" where you and a bunch of friend all play the same game, then there is no definite answer. You will have to Google "Lan connection <insert game name>". If you are talking about Lan in just a general, networking, like connecting to internet sense, then you need a router and an Ethernet cable. You then connect the Ethernet cable to the router and then to your computer. Or you can set up a Wi-Fi connection with your router. Your question is far too vague, so I cannot give a more straightforward answer. If you would like, you can contact me directly at JasonTheSager@live.com
