Recently I bought a new router and it works great but I'm still having bandwidth issues. On average there are 6 devices running at once, but only two of which do anything that takes up a significant amount of bandwidth and the router is a good distance away from my computer and my brothers (we do online computer gaming). Is there any way to increase the amount of bandwidth we get up here with out having to move the modem and router?
I currently have a 20mb connection with sky. I have 4 computers in my household and using the wireless modem router to distribute the connection.can I limit each computer to a certain amount of bandwidth. (eg PC1 =5mb, PC2=5mb, PC3=5mb, PC4=5mb) Two of my computers are running Win Vista HP and two computers are running Win 7 Pro & Ultimate.
So lately this week, one rogue user from the boarding house has been downloading(possibly torrenting)/streaming to his/her heart's content resulting in extremely slow connections for everyone else. I've been using an Android app to list all devices connected to the network, and one-by-one, manually disconnected each one to find the problematic, bandwidth-hogging IP. I've found that said user continued to use up bandwidth even up to the wee hours of the morning.
I managed to find his/her IP address, I know I could just block sites/ports via the router's control panel but I guess it's not that simple because: a.) Whoever setup the wireless on our floor forgot the username/password combo(not even the landlady knows) b.) I've asked management about asking for access to the router. Being the IT student on the floor, I guess I'll take the responsibility of at least limiting the rogue user's bandwidth so everyone else on our floor has a fair share.
So my question is: is there a way to limit an IP/application's bandwidth usage via a non-router control panel method, without having to do a hard reset on the router? I have tried in vain to use the Android app I used, but all it takes is a router reboot to disable it (said user knows how to reset the router). It's been days since we've had a stable connection for legitimate schoolwork usage because of this one IP that's using up all the resources.
The router on our floor is a Linksys WRT54G2 and my operating system is Windows 7 64-bit.
Today I purchased a Gatway laptop from Best Buy. Here is all the information NV51B15U, 4GB DDR3 Memory, AMD Dual-Core Processor E-350, 250 GB HDO. My internet is Virgin Mobile EVDO Mobile Broadband. I have know knowledge of computers or this USB internet I have. When I try to go onto Youtube to watch videos the video will play for about 2 sec stop and starts to buff the play then stop and so on. I have java and flash player 10 installed. I was told that I may need to go through another internet provider as the speed from the USB cord will never get any faster. Is this true? Is there something I can do to be able to watch videos without having to wait 10-15 minutes for it to load?
Is it possible to increase bandwidth througput on 2951 router if you have 3 WAN connections from different ISP, lets say 12Mbps + 24Mbps + 8Mbps, so will I get 44Mbps internet connection in total?Also, on 887G router, if I use DSL 12Mbps broadband, can I use 3G internet connection constantly, not for backup only. And will I get the total bandwidth output as a sum of two connections?
I am really not sure how to ask this question, but I will do my best. I have a Server running an application that I am connecting to via VNC app on my client. The app on the server is pushing 90mb down to the client, which is incredibly slow (3fps). I am curious if there is something that I can do/configure/verify to reduce the amount of data being pushed down?
Is there a way to limit the amount of data sent to a network printer? We have users trying to print a 2 GB documents and it causes issue on the print server?
i back up my very important server 2008 r2 data over a vpn to another computerall together its just under 5GB...it used to take 5 to 7 hoursnow the same data is taking 14 to 24hours...why would this be?im using netgear vfs338 vpn firewalls at each end
I would like to measure amount of data I have uploaded and downloaded on the internet since last router reboot. I see there is a STATISTICS under STATUS, which lists the packets, but how big is a packet? And can I just take the values under Receive and Transmit (row called Internet) and multiply with packet size?
As of late, I've been pretty unsatisfied with my WRT54GV6 with DD-WRT. It just can't handle the amount of traffic that my network generates now. I was considering building an Untangle or pfsense box and wanted to know if drivers or performance were an issue.

I have set up 2 RV110w firewall/vpn/routers at remote locations and an ipsec tunnel between them. Once the tunnel gets established everything works fine until it has been idle for some arbitrary amount of time. (Maybe a half hour or less.) at which point we lose server access and can no longer ping across the tunnel. To fix this I have had to dissconnect and reopen the tunnel again, I even went so far as to install an autopinger on the remote end to keep traffic on the tunnel which seems to work but is not going to be a viable long term solution.
I am trying to find a way using CLI that I can identify the amperage being used by a 6509 chassis. I have looked through all of the sh power and sh env commands and seem to only find the power being used on the DC side (since the output referemces 42V). Ddint know if there was something I was overlooking. To each things from the AC side will take getting an electrician in which is what I was hoping not to have to do.
I have an 1841 and started to run into an issue which can be resolved but looking to see what you guys prefer to do in this situation. We allow users to connect the laptop via ethernet and wireless to our network at the same time as well as an iPad or any other wireless technology. With that said, for the most part each user has two IP's at any given point. The issue comes in is that I have a large amount of IP exclusions for servers, printers, switches, etc on the exclude list. I am starting to see that the 255 address are not enough to make a long story short. I am also using the 1841 to handle another range for the voice network, which has no isues. What is the best way to fix this issue? Can I run a virtual VLAN off that 1841 for everyone to use and then have the servers, switches, printers, etc on another one? I want to assume no, as both interfaces are used on the back of the 1841 for the two VLANS running now. Or is the only way to handle this with this device to say that as a policy you can only connect assigned company hardware to the network?
I have a 5K with 5 downstream 3560's. I now have a new 5k that I would like to add to the existing 5K as a HA peer. What is the best way to accomplish this with the least amount of downtime for the downstream switches.On the 3560's, i plan setting up port-channels once HA is setup on the 5k's.
I have 1812j with ISDN line.Recently Accidentaly the ISDN Router was dialing every 1 minute because of the config was not right.It was too late to find out.And I got the expensive bill from the telephone company.
The idea is I want to stop dialing if the dialing cost is over than appropriate amount.For example, if dialing cost reach to $200, then stop dialing and alert to the system administator by E-mail or something.There is the way to limit the timed-out but this won't work for that.
We are receiving a large amount of output drops on 4 interfaces that connect to microwave wireless.This is playing up with our Management system. Saw a bug report but that was for 3750, not the IOS version but was a similar issue. [code] The output errors tend to happen at the same time. All ports are trunks however there are other trunks on the switch that are not having these issues. [code]
We want to get L2 traffic amount (bit/byte) passing through a cisco switch (6500/3560 ...) for a specific VLAN. it can be via SNMP or CLI ...How can we do that?
We have 1 mpbs bandwidth line, but most of the time we are getting only 300-500 kpbs download speed, i want to send statistics report to our ISP, what will be best procedure to test the bandwidth report, i have checked in some websites like bandwidthplace and speedtest but these sites are not accurate, how to check the actual bandwidth we getting from ISP against 1 Mbps. We have solarwinds monitoring tool in this i have configured the WAN interface for 1 mbps
If you have a PoE capable switch, is there any way to increase the PoE budget? Especially the 3750 range. I've heard people say that by adding another power supply in the switch you can increase the budget.I've got a 48-port 3750 and I may need to connect a lot of Class III (15.4W) PoE devices. Power budget of a 3750 is 370 Watts, enough for 24 Class III, but likely I'll need more.
what fields of IT increase internet availability. I have lived in South Korea for the last six months. I can't say how much better life is because there seems to be universal high-speed internet access, even at 24/7 fast food places like Dunkin' Donuts, McDonalds, etc.).
Isn't there a way to increase the TTL of an OSPF Hello packet or am I thinking of a different protocol? Or is it only with virtual links? I can't seem to find it in my ROUTE cert book or on the Intarwebz outside of setting TTL security, but I could have sworn I remembered configuring something like this in my ROUTE lab book that I unfortunately do not have at work.
My company has 2 sites. Between them we have 100 MGB link. We do replication every day our data. Recently we had a issue on replication then we stopped about 20 replication. And now issue is fixed, we are started replication. Average replication is 75%, we need to reach it 100% ASAP. But me and my co-worker have little bit different mind about replications are running in same time. I thought there is no difference for total time between one by one and all running in same. But co-worker saying one by one is much quicker.
I have a new setup in my home due to the increase in devices needing internet access.I bought a 8 port netgear switch and have it connected to my router.My question is this, will the speed/performance of my internet be lower(via switch) compared to if I was just connected straight to the router,
I am having trouble with my internet speed at my computer my provder says the speed is fine from their end 100mbps but when i check the speed at my end i am only getting 32mbps the other clue is when I am on a web page it constantky flickers. I have reset the router by turning off the power and then back on the other thing i have done is change the ethernet cable.
I currently have a dlink dir-655 in my basement. my computer on the second floor is connected via DWA-160. I Only have around 2-3 signal bars, and never get the 300mbs like described. i would like to know all the possibilities to extend my range (to have 5 bars) or get better connection speed. do you recommend an access point or an extender? Which models? also, if i have an dir-615, can i use it as an acesspoint/range extender for my computer on the 2nd floor? if so, how? I am looking for the cheapest alternative in order to have better signal and speed. The modem is stuck in the basement therefore I cannot move it.
I uploaded an .avi media file, which filled 2.81GB and it took me 7 hours!I was like holy ***, how is it even possible for it to take so long time for an file that only fills 2.81GB?
