AChat Add-on for NeoRouter Description
With the help of AChat Add-on for NeoRouter, you can add instant messenger functionality to NeoRouter, in order to chat with your friends or team members via AChat. It’s very easy to set up and contains a bunch of customization preferences, together with support for file transfers.
Add instant messenger functionality to NeoRouter
After integrating the plugin with NeoRouter, it’s not necessary to restart the application to commit the modifications. However, it has to be installed on all computers that wish to gain access to the chatroom. You just have to click a PC from your NeoRouter list and select the “AChat” entry. This will create a chatroom that all computers can connect to.
The main window is a bit out of style but has a neatly structured layout where the options can be easily found. You can get started by assigning your nickname and an icon.
Chat with everyone or have private conversations
The list of all online and offline users is displayed on the right side. Messages can be typed in this public space so they can be seen by everyone else online. Otherwise, you can double-click a user from the list to begin a private conversation.
It’s possible to send images and files, beep other users to draw their attention, as well as set your status to available, away, DND, offline or a custom message. As far as customization options are concerned, you can increase or decrease the font size, as well as set the tool to start with Windows automatically, monitor searches and uploads.
Configure settings and transfer files
Furthermore, you can select another network interface, opt for multicast server mode instead of UDP, hide bubbles and configure bubble events (e.g. image received, incoming file transfer), customize colors and sounds, and disable file sharing, among other settings.
The add-on worked smoothly with NeoRouter in our tests. Messages and files were quickly exchanged. All aspects considered, AChat Add-on for NeoRouter offers a simple solution for NeoRouter users to communicate and transfer files.
