Okey david i did the same u suggested,But when i run the server app on 1st laptop and client app on second laptop.The client app crashes...i used net view /all command on server side command prompt and it displays the both server laptop and other laptop name on list as well (on 2nd laptop also)...
Tell me what to do now.
I tried many times,i tried to use host name in place of IP also,but still it doesn't make any sense to me :( :( :(

Okey Dear David,i totally got your instructions.And thank u very much for brief explanation.Which made my concept totally clear but here i am asking you three questions.Having their answers i will understand the whole process...I will be very thank full to u man.I needs the certain information only.I spent a lot time for searching the answers.But still having some misunderstanding.

1-First tell me how to allow server to listen on port 9000?

i have done the following steps described on < http://www.tomshardware.com/faq/id-3114787/open-firewall-ports-windows.html >

2- Can you please describe physical connectivity of two laptops?
i mean can u guide me step by step for how to connect two laptops with each other.For testing on both situations within router and without router?

3-How to do Ipv4 configuration on both laptops.Should i use the static IP for server side config file? step by step guide,And can i use the server computer name instead for putting server ip?

Thank you

Thanks for your reply David...
I get that point to put 192.168.0.1 on server config xml, when it moved to another laptop.I have tried for many times,But which IP should i use on client app config?And i am trying to connect two laptops using Ethernet cable. And i disabled all my windows firewall as well as installed antivirus on both laptops as well as i also open the connection for port 9000 tcp/udp as well.But still i can not make a connection between server side and client side.

Here is the server computer ipv4 settings
Ip address: 192.168.0.102
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
default gateway: 192.168.0.102

primary: empty
secondry dns: empty

Here is config code for server

<configuration>
    <startup> 
        <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.5.2" />
    </startup>
    
    <system.serviceModel>
        <services>
            <service name="ChattingServer.ChattingService">
                <endpoint address="net.tcp://192.168.0.102:9000/ChattingService"
                    binding="netTcpBinding" bindingConfiguration="" name="ChattingServiceEndPoint"
                    contract="ChattingInterfaces.IChattingService" />
            </service>
        </services>
    </system.serviceModel>
</configuration>

And here is for client,where i used 192.168.0.103,which is the static ip of another laptop,where client app is running.

Here is the server computer ipv4 settings
Ip address: 192.168.0.103
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
default gateway: 192.168.0.102
primary dns:192.168.0.102
secondry dns:empty

<configuration>
    <startup> 
        <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.5.2" />
    </startup>
    <system.serviceModel>
        <client>
            <endpoint address="net.tcp://192.168.0.103:9000/ChattingService"
                binding="netTcpBinding" bindingConfiguration="" contract="ChattingInterfaces.IChattingService"
                name="ChattingServiceEndPoint" kind="" endpointConfiguration="" />
        </client>
    </system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
