[RESOLVED] Run same class in multiple threads?

[Thildemar]

I am trying to create an app that will ping all IP's in a subnet and if they are online attempt to gather WMI information from them. To do this I would like to check multiple IPs at once as one at a time would take ages. So I am trying to do as follows

sub btnclcick
Dim T1 As Thread
 
        For i = 1 To 255
 
            T1 = New Thread(AddressOf Collect)
            T1.IsBackground = True
            T1.Start()
 
        Next
end sub
 
private sub collect()
'ping and get WMI
end sub

Problem is each time the thread is restarted it starts the sub over before it can do anyting, how can I get multiple threads to open that same sub and all work at once?
