I've been trying to find the answer for this for ages. I'm now hoping a network pro can provide it here.I have two Gigabit switches connected by a single Cat 5e cable of length 10 metres. My servers are on one switch, and clients on the other. We don't seem to get good speed on the network, so I am investigating various issues in turn as I come across them.The Question is: Would I achieve faster packet throughput between switches by filling the empty RJ-45 sockets with additional Cat 5e cables, or will it have no more effect than the single cable there at the moment?
AOL are a complete waste of time and space in my opinion as for one you cannot understand what there tech support is saying and even when you email there tech support they seem to answer with a totally different answer to my questions.I have just installed a pci card ethernet connection on my pc windows xp now all I want to now do is connect and configure my router on the internet, I currently use aol dial.bb broadband adsl connection so far there are no connections from the router connected to my pc as i am still using a bt voyager 105 modem.When i did connect the ethernet cable to my pc and into the router also i connected the adsl cable into the back of the router but aol have not explained how to connect to the internet to configure this router and get it to work.
In my company bought 20 mbps lease line(ISP Line).I connect directly with my laptop and after checking it show 20 mpbs speed.If i connect cisco 1941 router and configure PAT and Its working fine but I check with speed I connect directly to another interface on my router to laptop at that it show only 8 mpbs speed.I am check with ISP person but they told its not an issue in ISP because we connect directly it show perfectly 20 mbps speed but connecting with your router at that time it show 8 mbps speed,so problem with your router configuration.
I just bought an E2500 router, and am only getting a fraction of the speed I do by connecting without it. Both wireless and wired through the router I'm getting about 1 mbps, while without it I'm getting about 10 mbps.
I do live in an apartment, so I'd understand if there were some wireless interference going on, but would that explain away the wired issues too? I've also tried changing the channel (though only of the 2.4 GHz connection), and that's not working any.
A few weeks ago my internet speed suddenly became slow. Not so slow you can’t do anything without having to wait half an hour, but significantly slower than usual, and it also has occasional drop-outs. It can’t be an issue with the computers connecting to the router, which it’s doing fine as I can access my router’s setting though the IP address, but with the router connecting to the internet.
I recently finished setting up my home network, here's the setup, modem > Wireless Router (DIR-655) > 1st Switch (ZyXEL GS105B) > hard wires throughout the house (which got messed up by the previous owner of the house) and from those hard wires, in one room I have an E3000 set as Repeater (DD-WRT) which has 1 desktop connected to it through hardwire then in living room I have another switch (ASUS GX-D1081/V2) for HTPC, TV, PS3
I'm experiencing poor udp speed on my sg-200-08. I'm running a nfs share on Ubuntu server 12.04 to a Ubuntu 11.10 client connected through udp protocol . If I use an un managed site com (plastic ****) I get about 50MB/s transfers, with sg-200-08 I can't get over 12/13 MBs transfers.
I've tried to set on both server and client MTU = 1492 and I've changed firmware from 1.0.3.3 to 1.0.5.1 (I've not tested 1.0.6 because of some posts here regarding udp problems).
I bought a new laptop today, unfortunately, it doesnt have a Firewire port and i want to use it for video editing.But i figured no problem really, i'll just capture on my desktop that i have been previously using to edit on, using Premiere pro to edit, but HDVsplit to capture, and then transfer the files over to the laptop using a USB or possibly trying to setup a home network.But when transferring files from the desktop onto the laptop via the router using ethernet cables, the speed is about 250 kb/s and when its the other way around, from the laptop to the desktop, the speed is 10 MB/s! I really need to find away to speed this up as the overall files i want to transfer are over 5GB.You can read a bit more about it here: [URL]
Ok, so i never had problems with this before until i reformatted my computer. I have used a program called simple port forwarding and i've also manually added the port seeing if theres a difference, but every time i check my port which is 25565 for a minecraft server it says either failed or not open etc.. I checked netstat -an and it showed it was listening to my ip address and port 25565.
We currently have the XG1 through XG4 ports on our SG500X switch setup in a LAG with the Cisco 10G-FiberOptics. Everything is working fine,however in the web UI under Port Management->Port Settings the "Port Speed" is listed as Unknown. All other ports report the speed correctly. We have 2 SG500X switches configured this way and both are reporting the same Uknown speed.
Firmware Version (Active Image): 1.2.7.76 Firmware Version (Non-active): 1.2.0.97
Every "once in a while" (about a week with my network load), the SG300 crawls to an almost standstill of all IPv4 activity (haven't got IPv6 enabled here yet, so I can't comment wether this applies to IPv6 as well). It seems pure L2 transmissions is not affected, but L3 definitely is (down to 20mbit as opposed to the 600+ rate I usually get).
Soft-rebooting the switch (via the webgui) useful, and the intervals of the crashes seem related to total bytes transmitted, not time. I have jumbo frames enabled, and disabled flow control on on the switch and all hosts.
Firmware Version is 1.0.0.27, md5 1987292110f5657e74308dde30c03dc4 Boot Version is 1.0.0.4 md5 4c9a0b6a9f1346736646d08ab94ae2ac
I have a 100mbps internet connection from my ISP but once the connection hits the ASA the download speed gets reduced to 15mbps. My network is setup as follows: ISP Modem ---- Edge Switch ----- ASA --- Internal Cisco Switches
If I plug my computer into an extra port on the Edge Switch I get speeds around 92mbps with normal traffic still going to the ASA. But when I plug into the ASA and internal switches I have speeds of 15mbps.
I have made sure that duplex/speed match on the links. I have done packet captures and within two minutes I do have several dup acks and retransmissions. The retransmissions don't seem to match the dup acks. (The retransmission is not for the dup ack requested so the dup ack keeps being resent)
The only interface error is on the inside interface which includes 700 overruns in a weeks worth of time.I am not using an IPS/IDS. I do have several vpns on it but was not going through a vpn tunnel. I am also using NAT.I am using an ASA 5510 8.2(1)
I'm adding a 2nd 3com 2920-SFP switch to our network, and was wondering how to connect them up in series(?) for more available user ports. They have 4 SFP ports, and wanted to know if this was how its done.
Trying to connect SG500X-24 switches to a new installation of MOE (four sites)provided by Century Link. I have tagged the uplink port with the MOE vlan, but traffic does not want to pass through.
Currently I have 2 different modem running in my working area which is modem A and modem B. Whenever user from Modem A(192.168.0.1) or Modem B(192.168.0.10) would like to print or scan something using the shared printer, I need to manually plug the cable into either Modem A or Modem B depends on the network the user are currently using.How I do previously is only set DHCP on Modem A and disable DHCP for modem B so that Modem B will share DHCP assigned by Modem A. Both modems connect to the same Switch with the printer cable so both network user can use it together.But the problem now is I have to enable DHCP for both modems and causing the previously method can't be use anymore. So is there any other way that I can link both Modem A and Modem B with each assign different DHCP to link with 1
I have a building with 30+ pc's, printers and cameras. I do not have a "server" setup, however I want them to be connected to the T1 line comming into the building for internet as well as file sharing, etc.Currently, I have the T1 line connecting to as Linksys E3000 wireless router. From there I have a cable connected to the wireless router (it has 4 ports also) and then going to a Netgear FS524 (24 Port 10/100 MBPS Fast Ethernet Switch) via port number 24. I then have another CAT5 cable connected to a port on this switch, extending to a D-Link DES-1024D (another 24 Port, 10/100 switch)I then have the 30+ CAT5 cable coming into all three of said devices... No then, I get Internet connection on all units, the problem is that I cannot see all of the devices.
I have connected 2 SG500x switches using an SFP-H10GB-CU1M SFP+ Copper Cable module. Since the port shows as a 10G port, I would expect the speed to show as 10G as well. However, it shows as "Unknown". This doesn't leave me with confidence that it is being recognized properly. The link is working properly, but I haven't run tests to verify if I'm getting full 10G throughput or not. Shouldn't it show 10G as the link speed?
my Netgear WPN824v2 router won't connect to the internet. It stopped connecting after a power outage 4 days ago. All local connections work fine. wireless unaffected. I tried a different router, but it wouldn't work either. Contacted my ISP, they said get a new router. Tried re-installing firmware, no change. I haven't tried it on a different internet connection yet, but plan to visit a neighbor and do some begging
I just purchased netgear N150 single band wireless router WNR1000v3. I cant get to the 192.168.9.1 site to detup manually and when i insert the set up CD it scans the config & says that my ethernet adapter isn't intstalled or enabled....I HAVE A CABLE FROM THE SATELLITE MODEM to my computer which works fine when I am connected direcrtly to it, so I dont get what the problem is. Do I need a different cable connecting my computer to the LAN on the router or am I missing something?
I have a desktop connected to our work network. It's running XP Pro. I also have a laptop running vista home. Is there a way to hardwire that laptop to the desktop, so i can share files between those two computers, while ALSO keeping my desktop connected to my office network?Since it's vista home, I can't connect the laptop to our network, since it can only connect in workgroups, not networks. But if I'm just able to just use the laptop, create files, and then either save them to a shared folder with my desktop or just save them to the desktop with a switch or something, it wouldn't be a problem that my laptop can't connect to the network.
I whish to connect the two switches shown below.The distance between them is 50m (~54 yards), one floor apart, and I would like to link them with the cheapest optical solution possible.I have been given a solution with 19inch patch panel, splitter, pigtail cords, patch cords, SC connectors, i.e., the lot.Not being an expert in networking, I feel that is an overkill solution.
I have two C2960 switches which have the management VLAN for other switches. These two switches are connected with each other via portchannel. Now the mgmt0 of few switches is connected to switch 1 and few other connect to switch 2.I have also connected the mgmt0 of switch 1 to an access port of switch 2 and vice versa.However in this set-up I am unable to reach switch1 via the mgmt0 IP address. However I can reach the mgmt0 Ip address of switch 2.I can also reach switch 1 and 2 via their int vlan IP.Has some one else experienced this and is their any specific reason why mgmt 0 IP address of switch 1 is not reachable.I have tried doing similar set-up on C3750, but have acheived same result i.e. I am unable to reach mgmt0 of switch 1.
ASA design. I have two Cisco ASA 5585 which are connecting to two Nexus 7K. I looked at one design and it seems I can make Redundant interfaces on ASA and put two physical interfaces (Link1-1/1-2) into it however the down side I can see is it will utilize one link out of 4 at one time. As per my understanding if I make redundant interface on ASA 1 and put 1-1/1-2 into it only one link would be active at one time. This will force Nexus2 to send all traffic to Nexus 1 in order to reach ASA. Ideally I want a solution where both switches could send traffic straight to Active Firewall and incase of failure both links to standby firewall.
I have a 2960 and a 2811 with a hwic card I have one port set as 100 meg and another port set at 10 meg. Both are set to access mode. i need one port for failover (10 meg) . I can't do ether channel on the hwic. How do I prevent a loop when I connect my second connection. While having both connections up. Should I use bpdu guard? the goal is to have one port fail over if the 100 meg goes down. And I'm currently running ospf so it should take the faster connection.
Dell dimension 2400 XP home. Connects fine to old linksys g router.With new qwest dsl modem/router get IRQL not less than or equal as soon as I click on connect .Blue screen stop and must reboot.Qwest router works fine with my lenovo lap top. Win 7.
How can I connect and configure a new AT&T Uverse 2Wire 3801HGV gateway with an older 2wire 1701HG gateway as a router to add more IP addresses in a home network? The 3801 currently feeds a wired lan through three 16 and 8 port switches, and feeds way too many wireless users too. Plus, the 3801 also feeds the VOIP phone system and TV (non HD). I now know the 3801 has a max of 10 or 12 IP addresses that it can handle (where was that little detail in the AT&T material?). The 1701 can and has fed more than 50 wireless and wired connections easily for years. So, what needs to be done make the 1701 feed the wired and wireless lan from the 3801 gateway, as well as let the 3801 continue to feed the VOIP, TV, and some of the wireless lan needs at the same time?
I just got a DSL Modem router (DSL 2750U) which has DSL input for internetconnectivity.My internet service provider provides RJ45 Cable which needs LAN input socket on a router for internet connectivity. How do I connect?
I am trying to connect a Netgear wirless router to my cable modem. I have followed the instructions on the set up wizard but it fails to get a connection with the IP and DNS info I provide.I got the IP address info by connecting intially direct from the modem to the PC and then went to Run CMD and type ipconfig /all. I then started the set up wizard and followed the instructions, turning things on in specific order etc. After input the IP and DNS info it reports an error and tells me to check the address information is correct.My internet is a static IP connection (so it tells me and the IP information doesn't change).
