Networking :: WL-520GU Good Choice For Torrents Of 2.0 MB/s

Mar 28, 2012

It seems it's time to let my trusty but ancient CAT: Networking(Tomato Firmware)because it has problems downloading downloading torrent of 1.0 MB/S and plus.My friend recommended me the Asus RT-16 but it's too expensive for my taste. So I'm looking at the WL-520GU with the TomatoUSB firmware. Can it handle bittorrents with no problem with QoS enabled? Is the 16 MB ram enough to run services such SNMPd?

Cisco Routers :: Is RV180 A Good Choice For Home Personal / Business Use

Apr 26, 2012

I am considering the RV180 as a wired router replacement to my current wireless and I can not find any user reviews, comments or ratings. I live in an area with a very poor wireless reception for our Sprint Cell phones (Still under contract) and I have a Sprint Airave which boosts the wireless signal for the cell phones. The Airave transmits on a 2.4Ghz band and it is stepping on my Internet wireless signal causing poor reception thought my 2-story house.
 
Due to this problem, I am considering installing a business class network with a router, PoE switch, and a strong Access Point. My house is pre-wired for with CAT5 wiring. I have looked at the EnGenuis EAP-350 Access Point (800Mw and 29dBm gain and PoE), The RV180 Gigabit Router, and the Cisco SD208P 8-port gigabit switch with 4 port PoE support for the Access Point. The switch will be located in a wall junction box so I need a switch with minimal ventilation requirements. Is the RV180 and SD208P the right choice to integrate in my network?
 
My experience with Linksys and Cisco products have been Great so I would like to stay with Cisco. I have looked at a competitors router (Netgear FVS318G-100) but the user reviews were very poor. I am not sure if I need a managed switch or not, as I will have one primary laptop running during the day and up to 3 other computes(2 laptops & 1 desktop), a wireless tablet (android), and a Xbox (wired connection) for the family (of course not all running at the same time).

Can't Connect To The Router Asus WL-520GU?

Nov 14, 2011

My Asus WL-520GU router was working without any hassles but since we moved, the Optimum app on iPad won't connect. I considered resetting the router. I wanted to restore it to the factory setting so I used reset button. Since then, I can't even connect to the internet using ethernet cable, forget wi-fi.

Allocating Bandwidth / ASUS WL-520GU?

Apr 13, 2011

I have an apartment with a shared internet connection with a roommate. I'm paying for all internet costs because he says he "doesn't use it as much as I do". He frequently slows my connection down by downloading movies and probably porn. Time to bottleneck this douche.

I have an ASUS WL-520GU All four slots are hardwired: my computer, his computer, PS3 in the main room, printer.Plus several mobile devices are connected via wireless throughout the day.I only want to bottleneck his computer.How do I do it?

Asus Wl-520gu Router Keeps Dropping Connection?

Jan 26, 2013

I changed my ISP (I don't know if that has anything to do with it).I have my network setup so I have a seperate modem (tp-link td-8616), which is connected to my router (asus wl-520gu) and do most of my computing from my computer (running Windows 7 64 Bit Home Premium, wired network). I had installed tomato firmware onto my router, which was working fine with my first ISP. I changed companies about a week ago, and noticed my connection kept being dropped. At first, I thought it was an issue with my ISP, so I called them up, and didn't find a solution. Afterwards, I started doing some trouble shooting on my own, and noticed my modem was still connected (via the WAN LED, at least), even though my router disagreed.

So, I tried connecting directly to my modem and my connection would be fine without any issue at all, so I thought I'd trouble shoot the router. I switched back to the factory asus firmware, connected it back to my modem, and after a while, it disconnected my LAN connection again. My router comes with this somewhat annoying interface that tells me the issue is "You have set the wrong dynamic or static IP address for your wl-520gu." So, I investigate that, and here is the setup:My modem is statically 192.168.1.1 when I directly connect to it, so I left that setting alone.

My router is also 192.168.1.1, but this was how tomato worked, so I'm not sure that this is the conflict, so I tried setting it to 192.168.1.2, which does not seem to fix the problem.My DHCP settings are set so connecting computers are 192.168.1.100-254, which should avoid the conflicts.After about 5 seconds of connectivity with that setup (modem=192.168.1.1, router=192.168.1.2), windows reports that I don't have a connection. After using Windows' trouble shooter, it says "Troubleshooting couldn't identifiy the problem"Even with the connection problems, I'm still able to access the router web setup interface.

Running DD-WRT On ASUS 520GU - PfSense Or Untangle

May 1, 2011

so I have a new Supermicro X7SPA-HF-D525 Mobo 4GB ram comming in and am wondering what firewall software I should put on it. This is for home use. Currently im running DD-WRT on an Asus 520GU, so anything is a step up. I have played with both, though Untangle only for about 20 or so mins on a VM, and pfSense for about an hr or so on an old P4.

By first glance at the untangle, one thing I didnt like was it looked like if I wanted anything I had to pay a yearly subscription for the same stuff that was offered for free or already included in pfSense. But i see alot of people swaring by Untangle.

Asus WL-520GU Improve Range And Signal Strength?

Sep 1, 2012

I have Asus WL-520GU router, about 2 years old. I hardly experienced any troubles with this guy so far as the router sits next to my laptop. Recently, I started working in the living room at wee hours of the day and I noticed that I do not get much signal, plus it drops so many times that working in the living room has become a nightmare. Its not that I live in a Presidential Palace but actually its as small as a chicken coop.

- I used inSSIDer to find out any interference. My router was using channel 1, although it was set to auto. Majority of routers in our apartment block use channel 1 or 11 (ALL Linksys, except me and an Apple guy) at 2.4GHz. I changed the channel to 3.

- I checked the firmware of the router. Its 3.0.0.8. Asus website gives me a list of firmware upgrades but I am not too sure if there is indeed any upgrade for the routers in the US.

I am not smart enough to install DD-WRT so staying away from it unless I find any didactic instructions. DD-WRT site is not for me.
- I am considering hanging router on the wall with Aluminium file behind the antenna.

- I am considering changing the antenna. The antenna is 2dBi. I found a few antennas on ebay, 5dBi, 7dBi, 9dBi, 10 dBi, 12 dBi, 16dBi May be I will replace the antenna with one of these. Any specific I should use? (I don't know if there is any limitation or disadvantage of using higher dBI antenna.)

- Lastly, I am considering buying a refurbished Linksys E1000 or E1200 router and connect both using ethernet cable, so that one of these guys act as a repeater.

Cisco Wireless :: 1242 / 2504 - Warehouse AP And Antenna Choice

Dec 23, 2012

We'd like to work with Motorola MC3190 a/b/g handheld scanners in our warehouse so we need WiFi connectivity there. The warehouse has concrete walls and is divided into two parts - loading bay 18m x 42m (59ft x 138ft) and main warehouse building 44m x 42m (144ft x 138ft). The loading bay is just a simple hangar with gates mostly open, temperature could be very low there, down to -20C, the right thing would be to install an external AP there but still I want to get along with the signal from the inside.

Some very basic site survey with the Cisco 1242AG ap shows that there is -70db signal at the loading bay from warehouse AP. What do you think about mounting the antenna at the loading bay and connect it to the AP inside the warehouse? The actual ceiling  height is 8m (26ft) but the steel beams are 6m (20ft) from the floor and that will be the mounting height of the AP's. (I think it's rather high though). Storage racks are made of metal and are up to 7m (23ft) high. Stored materials are mostly different types of fiberglass cabling, polyethylene, steel cabling, steel wires, metal barrels.

The environment is very dynamic and it's rather hard to predict the actual RF situation so I'm trying to determine the worst case scenario. So I'd like to use 2504 wireless controller with five 3502e AP's with ANT-2422DW dipole antennas mounted at the ceiling beams in the warehouse at 6m height. My thought was to set scanners to work in b/g band (there will be several laptops there too). There is a little diagram attached below.Still think it's too high, and doubt about the antennas. Are there better choices for such a setup? Maybe with wall mounted antennas?

Linksys Wireless Router :: Port Forwarding Not Giving IP Choice (WRT54G2)

Nov 14, 2011

I'm currently configuing the WRT54G2 to port forward to an FTP server we have on our network.
 
The issue I'm having is that the router is offering me the 192.168.40.* range, however the FTP server is in the 192.168.10.* range. The server works on the local network across several computers, however this issue I beleive is what is preventing me from having it accessed from outside the network.
 
Any options for getting it to offer me the 192.168.10.* IP range?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 2960 - Choice Of Equipment For Multi-tenancy?

Mar 9, 2013

A client I have just taken on wishes to provide internet data and VoIP for multiple tenants in their new office they move to in a few weeks.
 
they currently have a Cisco 2811 router with a 24 port Catalyst 2960 PoE managed switch serving just their staff and one tenant company who is plugged into a single port on the switch. I dont know what the tenant has the other side of that at this time.
 
when they move they currently will provide single port access points on the switch for each tenant, so the tenant can deal with their own network LAN. The client will provide phones to all the tenants using VoIP phones on a single subnet and hosted on an external PBX the phones all plug into the Catalyst and use the PoE. the WAN is a 20mbps fibre connection.
 
The client has 16 staff, the tenants are 3 companies with 3,6 and 9 staff. They may all increase or decrease in size to a total size of about 30 or 40 people.
 
I have a few questions
 
1. should I look at Vlan setup for this instead of the current basic routing setup or is that overkill since they only use one port access point per tenant as gateway.

2. can the cisco 2811 handle this or is it a bit old.

3. what router replacement would be recommended for this task given the above info especially if I went with Vlan solution.

4. any thoughts on the current switch's capability for this task.

5. managing bandwidth solutions? is there any router designed with this in mind. the ASA maybe or something like it with nice visual webgui management capabilities for monitoring and controlling bandwidth use of tenants?

Linksys WRT54G V8 / Torrents Cause Internet To Cut Out?

May 22, 2011

Whenever i download something via bit torrent my internet cuts out and reconnects over and over throughout the course of the download. My computer is connected directly to my router with a lan cable so i know its not a wireless issue. The router is a few years old so maybe it just cant handle the heavy traffic anymore. It's a Linksys WRT54G V8 with everything at the factory default settings. I once tried to update the firmware on it but it wouldn't update. I didn't want to ruin the router so i gave up on trying that.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Oversized NAT Table - Better For Torrents

May 26, 2012

I JUST got this router. For the longest time, I have been using the DGL-4100 ( Rock solid for years ). One of the things I noticed in the description of the 4100, is the "oversized NAT table" .. Better for torrents?

So, upon using the 655, after a solid day of heavy torrenting, I had to reboot it. Next day same thing. 3rd day, no torrents. It was fine for the entire day.

Are there any tricks to get this 655 to be solid for torrenting like my old 4100? If not, what wireless product does D-Link make now that can support many concurrent connections without having a heart attack? I could have 20 torrents open at once with the 4100 and it would not die!

D-Link DIR-655 :: Connections Dropping To DSL-526B Because Of Torrents

Jan 17, 2012

my configuration; ADSL2+ @ 21Mbps comes in via Telstra. Fibre optic cable trunk to main road, copper to the house, total distance 246m, hence good speeds. The phone is connected to a dual port filter with a phone and fax connected through double adapter to one port, and DSL-526B connected to other port.DSL-526B connected to DIR-655 Hardware A4, firmware 1.30. The two are set up in bridge mode, with a static IP. The DIR-655 connects to a DGS-1016D and a DGS-1008.I am running WIndows 7 ultimate x64 w/8GB ram, I5-2500K, and all MS patches.

four days ago I reinstalled my windows system. At that time, I uninstalled Tablet PC components and Windows search. I use FreeDownload Manager for my download needs, and it includes a BitTorrent client. I installed the latest version.From that point on, whenever I download any torrents the connnection to the internet resets and takes about 1 - 3 minutes to re-establish itself. I have tried going back through the several versions of the program to get back to the version I was running before I re-installed all to no avail.

I replaced the cable between wall socket and filter, replaced filter, replaced phone cable, also to no avail. I have tweaked the program settings now with only three half open connections, and I've reset the modem donezn of times. I've reset the DIR-655, and done factory resets on both and reconfigured them. Nothing has worked. I use MAC address filtering and I have ACLS which block access to various sites because of kids, and I use OpenDNS web content filtering too.

Sharing :: Can't Download Torrents Anymore - Disabled P2P Shield

Aug 8, 2012

I reckon this is one of the most asked questions here. I couldn't solve this with the assistance of Google, so I'mma ask you guys:

So, yesterday, I reinstalled Windows 7, and installed all the essential programs like FF, uTorrent, Avast! etc.I put some torrents into uT Q, and I could download them like normal. But later that day, I noticed one download had halted completely and there was a red bar at the bottom(torrent is not available). I thought all the seeders had stopped sharing, and I started another torrent which had hundreds of seeders. Well, the same problem again.

I downloaded BitTorrent and Vuze but they couldn't download a byte either! As mentioned, I'm using Avast! Free as my firewall, and I have added uTorrent as an exception(although on my last setup uT was fine without doing any modification for Avast). I've also disabled P2P shield

How To Block Torrents On Network / Netgear 2200DGN Router

Jun 6, 2011

I have a Netgear 2200DGN router which is shared wirelessly with my other 5 housemates. Now i would like to know if there is a way i can block torrent downloads on the network or the router itself. The options in the router have QoS but nothing to actually limit torrents or control bandwidth.I have looked at using dd-wrt, as i think you can block torrents on that, but my model doesnt seem to be supported. There was another custom firmware called ModFs but im not sure what thats like.

Networking :: Wireless Networking On MT3707

Oct 23, 2011

I recently installed a very basic version of XP on my old laptop (Gateway MT3707).After hours of searching for the correct drivers, I found them, and installed them. After installing the correct drivers for wireless internet I was able to pull up the list and find my network on it.When double clicking on our wireless network it asks for a network key (also called WEP key or WPA key).Now we have a password for our network, but after an exhausting amount of tries that won't work. I not sure if that is what its looking for. In our apartment we run mac OSX, windows vista, etc., but usually the password for the network is satisfactory. I have never ran into this problem.I hate to be a noob, but I don't know where to go from here.

3389 (RDP) Good Way To Get Away From DynDNS

Mar 5, 2012

I currently have a DynDNS hostname, example.dyndns.org, and I type that into MSTSC (remote desktop) whenever I'm traveling.

But, is there a better way of doing this? The IP of the PC is not static, but it rarely changes. I do have a domain registered with GoDaddy and have full access to DNS records.

D-Link DIR-825 :: Is Router Good For Needs

Apr 3, 2012

A thunderstorm about 3 hours ago fried my DIR-655 rev. A3 router. I heard a zapping noise and that was it. All the signals are messed up, even after a hardware reset, and the router runs extermely hot, with lots intermittently blinking and no connections.

I need another router with similar features, especially with a USB port for my printer.I found the DIR-655 reliable a long as it lasted, but I never upgraded the firmware, which was fine with me. Nonetheless I want to buy a more modern solution.

Talking to tech support at D-Link the DIR-825 was recommended. Is the DIR-825 router a good router for my needs ? Is it a worhty upgrade to the DIR-655 router ? Does Shareport work well with it ?

ASUS RT-N16 Still Good For Just Routing?

Mar 14, 2013

My house is wired so any demanding network transfers are done over the wired network, wireless is reserved for casual stuff. This month my internet connection is eventually going to exceed 100Mbps so I need to dump my WRT54G and while I'm sure the RT-N66U is very nice, I could save $100 buying the RT-N16.

I have a gigabit switch that works great and handles all of the local traffic, I just need the router for DHCP, NAT, basic wireless connectivity, and it needs to be able to pull in over 100Mbps from the internet. So is the RT-N16 adequate for me?
