Does Mixed Powerline AV 500 And 200 Network Slow Down 500 Nodes
Aug 30, 2011
I have two netgear powerline AV 500 ethernet adapters that give me near ideal internet access on my media computer (FIOS 25/25mpbs tests out at 8ms 25.4/24.7) and perhaps 100-140mbps to my router, printer, drive, etc. I now want to add a few wifi points and instead of having the mess of a powerline adapter + a wifi router I think it will be neater to have an all in one solution. Most of the ones that I find are 200mbps, however. I know that 500 is backwards compatible, but will a mixed solution slow everything down like it can for a mixed wireless g/n network?

I recently upgraded my wireless router to a Netgear R6300 and have had no problem with the wireless speeds,35mbps down and 6mbps up according to speedtest.net. I experience similar speeds from my direct wired connection as well but I am having an issue with my speeds running through my Linksys PLE300 powerline adapter I am getting speeds of 4mbps down and 6mbps up. My PC is running Vista Home Premium SP2 (I know). Prior to the upgrade I was using a Netgear N600 and I was getting much faster speeds through the powerline. My NIC is a Intel 82566DC -2gigabit. I checked all the cables, I am using a CAT6 from router to Powerline and when I run router stats it shows WAN as 1000M/full and LAN1 (powerline) as 100M/Full.

We have a non-wireless network of Macs at work and occasionally have a PC laptop connected with an ethernet cable. Everything worked well until the owner of the PC got a new one, and tried to install drivers for our HP printer using the original HP install disk. Now none of the computers can connect with the printer. What happened? How can I correct this? The Macs all run OSX 10.5.8. The Windows operating system is, I believe, XP.

I want to add a cisco or netgear powerline adapter to a building.I have read that for home it works really good, but i am going to add it to a building--A 5 floors building.So i would like to know if anyone has done this before and it works. This is a commercial building.And it is not easy to run cables, that would be the second option if the powerline do not work well.

Here is what a wired portion of my network looks like:
internet---dsl modem---airport extreme---powerline ethernet adapter****powerline ethernet adapter---5 port switch---(ip camera & ioBridge 204)
The airport extreme is also hardwired to a PC that I use to view the IP camera.The issue I'm having is with the connection to the IP Camera.The connection to the camera worked for a long time, then starting dropping periodically and now it doesn't work at all.The ioBridge connected to the same switch as the camera connects to my network and the internet just fine.
Here's what I've done to troubleshoot: I plugged the camera in to my airport extreme and it worked fine. When I plug my camera into the other end of the powerline ethernet adapters, though, it doesn't work (even though the ioBridge does). I replaced the powerline adapters today (because they had worked before, so I guessed something had fried in them) but the connection still doesn't work.
When I ping the camera (when it's on the other side of powerline adapters and "not working") the response time is around 3ms (good) but there is about a 33% loss rate (bad).I'm guessing it's the loss rate that is keeping it from displaying the video stream on the computer...but I can't think of what changed between when it was working and when it stopped working that would cause it lose packets like that.

I have a duplex home in an urban setting that seems too vast for a single wifi router. Additionally, it seems that there is significant speed degradation through wifi. According to my speed tests, I can lose up to 70% of my contracted internet speeds (of 15 mbps) via the router (which I am hoping that the Apple TC can fix although I'm sure that sometimes it's the cable co's fault!)I have read that if I can add a wifi router to the second floor that would work with the signal, however that speed would be the same degraded one.So, I have been doing lots of reading on the Powerline devices and I'd like to know if I can do the following and if so, how:
1. Connect the wifi router (soon to be an Apple TC) to the cable modem, as I do now, but then run the ethernet cable through the TC to the Powerline and Powerline network that way.
2. Connect my iMac to the internet via Powerline
2a. Can I then use Powerline fo Home Sharing, Air Play, and so on?
2b. Back up my iMac to TC?
3. Connect my internet ready TV via Powerline (currently conencted via wifi).
4. Connect a second wifi router on the second floor via Powerline and it be on the same wifi network as if I am using the second router as an extender.
5. There is a tenant on the 3rd floor who receives a separate electric bill. Can I assume that they would be shut out of my Powerlined network?
6. Lastly, connect my iOS devices to wifi?

I'm currently on my home network, which used to consist of a router with wifi and all had a stable connection. However after leaving for university, i have come back to find that they are using these : (it now says i am connected via LAN) - i am running via a ''powerline network'' apparantly.
[url]...
However I believe my dad's internet is hardwired to the router, which is where the problem lies. When his pc is off, the internet is fine, however when he turns it on the internet becomes VERY intermittant for everyone except for him. When downloading a file it cuts down to 40-50kbps (not much slower than it usually is), but drops out every half a second... This makes web browsing impossible, let alone anything else.

I would like to set up a TV in my spare room which does not have a coax plug. Because of the set of my house running coax cable to this room, although possible, is something I am hoping to avoid. This is because if I was to run the cable on the outside of the wall it would get in my way and it will cost $300 to $400 for a tech to come out and run it through the wall.My first thought was to set up an old computer in my living room and have it connect to a cable box. Then I would send the video signal over the wireless network. The problem is that I cannot change channels on the other end. I have been reading up on power-line networking and it looks like a good option for my problem. I was hoping to find a device that will allow me to plug coax cable into it in the living room send the signal through the power-line to another device in my spare room where my TV receiver would be located. Is there anything like this out there on the market? If not are there any other options I can look at?

I am trying to connect a sony blu-ray player to the internet using a powerline adapter but the BR player does not connect. I currently have two Satellite DVR receivers using the same powerlines and they work fine, but the Sony player does not connect to the network. I have to try a wired connection because my wireless signal to the player has trouble with netflix and other download services. Connection gets lost.

my goal is to share my cable modem signal over my two story house using two wireless routers. The delima is that the routers don't support wireless bridging and if they did, the signal is too weak to make it worth while.
The remedy I came up with... buy a pair of powerline network adapters and connect one router to the other so I could have a good signal upstairs and then a good signal downstairs.
Downstairs, I have the cable modem connected to the Linksys WRT54G router, which has a line out to my blu ray player, wirelessly feeds a PC downstairs and then has a cable run to the powerline adapter.
Upstairs, I have a cat5 connecting the powerline adapter (which was tested and works with laptop) to the data input port on my second wireless router, the netgear wndr3400.
I can't get the netgear upstairs to pull an IP address from the linksys router downstairs over the powerline network.

I am currently trying to find the method or mechanism for calculating the distance between two wireless mobile nodes.Let's say, there are 2 nodes (node B and C) coming in communication with node A. How can node A knows whether node B or node C is nearer than the other? Is it possible to find it out by using RSSI? or are there any other mechanisms to calculate the distance?

Packet Sniffing is mainly used on non-switched networks to display data that was supposed to be sent to nodes other than yourself, allowing you to see information such as usernames and passwords etc.My question is, why can this technology not be used as easily on a switched network? When nodes send data through a switch does it become encrypted?

All 3 previous wireless routers I've had were all LinkSys routers and I had to overcome a learning curve since configuring this DIR-655 is slightly different..What I want to do is allow only the WiFi MAC addresses that I choose to access the network. It seems to me that in order to accomplish this I have to include all of my wired LAN devices' MAC filters as well. I can see having MAC filtering for WiFi devices, however why do I need to add my wired LAN devices MAC addresses? I'm not going to allow just anyone to walk into my home off the street and plug a computer into the network via CAT-5 ethernet cable, so isn't there a way to accomplish just the WiFi allow list and the heck with the wired nodes? The LinkSys routers I used in the past allowed me to allow the MAC filter for WiFi devices only. Is there a way around having to allow all MAC's and just allowing the wifi's?

Just replaced my older Cisco router with an E2000 and now none of the connected PCs can ping each other. I have two wired and two wireless nodes on the 192.168.1.X subnet (defaults) using DHCP. All nodes can access the Internet with no problems, but none of them can see each other -- no ping, no Network Neighborhood, nothing. Since this all worked fine before I swapped routers and I've made no changes on any of the nodes, I presume this is something about the router.
I've tried all the usual troubleshooting steps (spent 10 years working as Systems Engineering in IP networking) - no luck. I've also tried various settings of the router (e.g. turned off SPI) but no luck either.
my new router doesn't block connections between attached PCs on the same subnet ....
P.S. One strange observation : using Wireshark I can see the pinging node (.137) ARP for the destination IP (.102), and the ARP reply is sent by the destination node (.102) , but it looks like the Echo Request never makes it to the target machine -- i.e. I think the router is blocking it.

The infrastructure has PIX515E as the Firewall and few Web Servers and Database Servers inside. Is it possible to retreieve information regarding the bandwidth available at the outside interface of PIX (Internet link utilization ) utilized by each of the nodes seperately? I could use SNMP to get the overall data transfer at the Outside interface of PIX but isit possible to get utilization details of individual nodes ? Is Netflow an option ?

I currently have 2 PCs that are directly connected to each other via a 1Gbs Cat6 connection.I don't currently have a 1Gbs router so what I am doing right now is unhooking this connection and reconnecting both machines to my router when I need internet access. I have ordered some USB Wi-Fi adapters so I can have both machines access the internet that way whilst still use FTP between them on the 1Gbs line.If I were to scrap that idea and get a 1Gbs hub, connect both PCs straight into that, and then also connect the hub to my 100mbits router, would the 2 computers be able to communicate with each other at 1Gbs and then talk to the router at 100mbits, or would the whole network run at 100mbits.I don't really want to have to shell out on a 1Gbs router as I don't need anything else on the network to run at that speed.

Well after a power outage, the power comes back on and randomly assigns everything a new address. Well the portforward for the secuirty cam might be on the xbox, or the laptop or the guest pc or my den pc at random?

The admin guide for the WAP4410N, explains the default setting for the Wireless Network Mode field:
"B/G/N-Mixed—(Default) Connects all the wireless client devices at their respective data rates in this mixed mode."
What does this mean exactly? Does it mean that I can have some clients using G at G speed; and some clients using N at the faster N speed? And both at the same time?
I can't see how that is possible as the AP only has one radio?If it is possible; then why is one of the options G only - that allows both G and N, but a G speeds only?
Should I set the Channel Bandwidth to 20Mhz or 40Mhz? The admin guide says that N will use 40Mhz and B/G will use 20Mhz. What is the difference in practice?

How to create a mixed service ports on ASA 8.4(2)?I need to create a service group which has ICMP, TCP ports and also different UDP ports.Normally you would create different service group based on TCP/UDP/TCP-UDP/ICMP/Protocol and add then to new nested service group.But I want to create a new service group where you can define everything without the need to different service groups and nesting them into a new one.

I'm trying to use LMS to upgrade a stack of switches that have 1 or more 3750x's and other 3750's. In Software Distribution, if I choose Distrube to devices, basic, it finds the x switch, which is the master but says the others are not candidates. I don't see a place where I can tell it it is a mixes stack and choose multiple IOS's.

I am looking to slowly migrate some of our wireless devices (Aironet 1231 and 1232's) to the Wireless N spec - 1260's.I currently have four AP locations that I want to upgrade first before anywhere else. At the minute, these four AP's work on the 2.4Ghz G band.
how the new 1260's will work in the mixed environment. I believe I will need to purchase the 1262 (which is the dual band version) so that I can operate the AP in both the 2.4Ghz G band range and the 5Ghz N range at the same time, is this correct?If I was to purchase the 1261 (which is the single band version), will I only be able to operate in either th 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz, but not at the same time?
For the mixed environment, would you suggest the dual band version? Can I place the same SSID on multiple Radios if this is the case? Following example: Say I have the SSID called 'Company' - this at the minute is operating on the G band 2.4Ghz range. If I was to purcahse the dual band 1262, could I put this SSID on both the G radio and the N radio? Would clients with an N adapter automatically connect to the 5Ghz range (N Radio) and legacy G and B adapters automatically connect to the 2.4Ghz (G Radio)?

I have running a Stack with two C3750G-24TS-S1U with the IOS c3750-ipbasek9-mz.122-50.SE3.Now I want put a new C3750X-24T-S in the existing stack. I have read this is possible. I have running a other mixed stack with a C3750G-12S and an C3750E-48TD. Its running fine until I want to make an IOS update. The update was done with the CW LMS 3.1. After the automatic update and restart only the C3750E had an new IOS the C3750G doesn't have any IOS. Do I have the same problem with the mixed Stack C3750G and C3750X?Do I have to upgrade the IOS by copying the different IOS Versions ( c3750-ipbasek9-mz.122-50.SE3 / c3750e-ipbasek9-mz.122-50.SE3) to every switch ?

I just bought a new WRT120N router and it works perfectly on cable and Wi-Fi with one major issue on Wi-Fi. If i connect my phone or any phone for that matter that knows N speed the connection speed is 65Mbps and that is fine as all phones are limited to this speed over Wi-Fi. When I connect a Sony laptop that has N connection speed up to 300 Mpbs the connection speed shows as 65Mpbs. Are there any special settings I have to do to make the connection at least 100 or 120 Mpbs? What is the maximum connection speed of this model because I couldn't find any information about this. I did some digging on google and found that some people have connection speed of 120 Mpbs but they didn't give any advice on the settings they used or how they got to this speed. Keep in mid that I am refering to the connection speed now the actual download speed. So what settings I have to do to get at least 100 Mpbs speed connection?
LE: I would prefer a setting that would alow me to connect a Galaxy Nexus phone an iPhone 3G and the Sony laptop so that all of them will be connected at the maximum speed suported by that specific device.

We have 3 x WAP4410N at new office setup in Singapore. Customer asked us to setup those 3 AP to make client auth against an ACS 4.2 sitting in US office. All the user notebooks were joined to Windows domain in US office, before sent out to Singapore office. We configured APs with WPA2 Enterprise Mixed mode and entered radius server address and secrects correctly. Logging from ACS shows that users are authenticated successfully but, on the user notebooks, authentication never seems successful and keeps authenticating.

I have a CAS array for Exchange 2010 configured to loadbalance on my Cisco ACE 47XX. My question is: Can I run a mixed VMware cluster version 3.5 and 4.1 on my ACE? I am experiencing is dropped RPC connections and I was wondering if that could be the cause of it or maybe I am misconfigured something on the ACE
Another question:Should I seperate the two cluster versions on their own serverfarm and than loadbalance the farms? What I mean is serverfarm 3.5 and serverfarm 4.1 and than loadbalance them.
