Recommend Router High Open Connections Without Freezing?
Jun 4, 2011
I have been looking for a new router as my current one has packed in. I am mostly interested in a router with a fast and stable wifi and high throughput which can manage a high amount of maximum simultaneous connections. The linksys e4200 seems perfect and very well reviewed.I am currently on adsl, no cable in area, so i would need one to have an adsl modem. Is there a version with a modem? Or will i need to look around for another?
I am mainly interested in throuput and the reviews and comparison sites sugest that linksys seems perfect midway between max simultaneous connections and price. Any comparison website that has adsl routers. The information am looking for on that's between £60 and £160 with high amount of ram, high throuput for Maximum Simultaneous Connections, similar to link text
I'm in the market for a wireless router/AP. It must have gigabit LAN and would like it to have 300mbps wireless rates. I've been looking at the Linksys E3000 but I'm a little hesitant because of some of the reviews about this thing getting hot. Heck, even reading thru threads on here, it seems like there's mixed reviews on most everything!
I am using a Linksys E4200V2 for my routing needs. I have 6 hardwired connections and 9 wireless connections. Due to my hardwired connections all going into one corner of my basement my router is placed there. When I had an E3000 my wireless coverage was fairly acceptable. After a power surge took out a bunch of stuff (which I have remedied with a whole home surge protector and better surge protectors for my devices) my E4200 replacement just doesn't have as good of coverage, especially in our office. This renders wireless to our phones/tablet useless in there (wife's laptop and my desktop are hard wired when in the office). I have a fairly large home so no wireless router is going to give me great coverage in my office, which is furthest from my router and has a bunch of obstructions to go through.I want to do an access point. I tried with an old Belkin Wireless G router, but it is only working when it wants to and there is probably a reason I stuff it in a box years ago. Of course I gave my other working Netgear N-router to my mom...so I'm out of wireless routers.
I want to buy something that:
- Is under $50
- Can do dual-band wireless N
- If it has Gigabit Ethernet ports that would be sweet as I could make use of them, but I can live without
- Can either repeat the wireless signal from my Linksys or be hard-wired as I have Ethernet connections all over my home. I'd suspect there would be a performance benefit from a hard wired unit.
Usage - from a hardwired perspective, I do some heavy LAN file transfers and high-bandwidth streaming on a semi-regular basis. For wireless, some random downloading (nothing time urgent), surfing and video streaming off the web is about it, and Airplay from our iOS devices (iOS stuff is only Apple stuff we have, rest is Win 7/8 and Android) with Apple TV being hardwired.
I have decent Bandwidth, high download speeds (25.67mbps) low ping(16ms) And okay upload speeds (4.47mbps). I usually browse Reddit and my father usually plays CoD. The problem is, whenever I try and download anything, his game slows down to where he gets kicked from the room.
my home pc doesnt have any desktop icons or a toolbar and so i am unable to connect to the internet.could tell how i could connect to the internet using task manager
I am having issues trying to track down what is causing a high number of connection on our FWSM in our core 6509 switch. I recently upgraded my FWSM to 3.1(20) and I'm looking for a tool to be able to find the culprit. When I receive these messages I try to get onto the firewall in time to be able to get information regarding this issue but by the time I do the device recovers. Is there a way to tweat the threshold of the SNMP trap for high connections? Is there any way I can retreive this information via SNMP? Is there are command that will allow me to extract the local IP making the most connections?
One of my remote sites acquires Internet connectivity via a cable modem service. This goes down intermittently, of course. I would like to purchase DSL service from the local telco and configure the edge ASA (currently a 5505) to use the cable modem path normally ... and fall back to the DSL path if necessary.
These seems hard to do. The edge box would need to evaluate the viability of a WAN path using some set of tests ... perhaps pings to a handful of major Internet sites. If all those pings start failing, it would stall for a minute, to give the WAN service provider time to recover ... then cut over to the second path. Cutting to the second path might mean pushing new DNS server addresses to clients (or perhaps the edge box would hand out both sets of DNS servers all the time and rely on the clients to try them all.) Once the cable modem provider restored service, the edge box would stall for a while (ten minutes? an hour?) and then cut back.
I'm willing to replace the edge box with something fancier (a bigger ASA or something sold as a router or whatever), although I'd like to stay under 10K (list) for such a replacement.
I'm currentlly running Both Wired and Wireless GPO via Win2008r2, on my WIRED connections after clt-alt-del logoff my network connection stays open (pingable)While connected via wireless (WLC 5508 and WCS) Windows AD 2008r2 ;Radius Server 2003.
All Clients authenticate using Network Authen (Wireless Network Connection Properties) WPA2 Data encryp AES EAP type PEAP.Authentication Method (EAP-MSCHAP) I have no problems connecting via SSID etc... my Question is how do I keep the TCP connection open after initiating a logoff from Windows. (Closing network connection) OPEN!
I need to maintain a tcp(pingable) connection open in order to access Manufacturing clients that are connected via WIFI. (WLC).All wireless clients are issued and auto-enrollment cert via IAS .

After i bought the router it was working perfectly. But after using 1 week it freezes now and then. Happens around 10-30 times a day. The one or two led lights stops flashing and no device can connect to the router or asses internet. Another issue is that sometimes i cant connect any device through wifi (tried with android phone and ipod) and and but works perfectly on my pc. If i restart my router is works perfectly but after 1 min-3 hours sames problem happens either router freezes or cant connect though wifi
When i stream higher resolution videos to my TV or PC, from the usb stick attached to my router(linksys EA4500). The videos freeze, then playes again, then freeze, etc. I have no problem with lower res. videos or music
I have a 2911 router hanging/freezing at random times, could work fine for a week then crash, or sometimes, could only go a few hours, completely random with timing. The onyl fix is to manually pull the power and reinsert.When this happens, all services/access stop working, including nothing on console access.This was on 15.2.1.T1 which im aware, has a few bugs, so i upgraded to 15.2.1.T2.The issue continued, so I swapped out the 2911 with a brand new one. The issue is still present.
One interesting thing, is when the router crashes/freezes, all lights appear to remain on working as usual, but when i unplug any of the ethernet links, the lights still continue to remain flashing and on for the ethernet LEDs, even once i have fully removed the cat6 cable.
I have a Cisco 1921 to replace our current router which is constantly freezing. We have a couple inside servers, one is a web server and application server which needs to be RDP'd to by a couple of clients outside of our network. I cannot get this to work no matter what. I know it's not the server's setup as when I plug the network back into the old router, it works just fine.
All clients have access to the internet, and I can successfully ping/resolve hosts from both the router and a client computer connected. I cannot, however, rdp using neither our public IP, nor our hostname. The hostname does resolve to our ISP assigned IP, but the server cannot be contacted, leading me to belive this is a NAT issue.

I wanted to setup some type of free software to do monitoring from my laptop on my home network. I'm using a Linksys WRT54GL with DD-WRT that provides decent monitoring but I wanted to start becoming more familiar with the mainstream products.
How many AP in h-reap mode recommend with WAN link 512k ?,i have read in document it show h-reap mode must requirement minimum link is 128k for connect to wlc but i don't know this requirement for 1 ap or all ap to connect across WAN to register and send traffic across WAN. Because now i have 2 site HQ -> Branch (link 512k) it can use for this solution.
why our PBX system would freeze up the phones. There is no real reason why this happens. We have the PBX on its own circuit board, so its not sharing any power, we only have about 200 phones on the system, so that is not the issues. Its properly cooled. It just seems to happen that our phones freeze, and when they start freezing it seems to happen in pairs.
This just started this morning after I got AT&T internet. It keeps freezing up my mouse for like 3 seconds every 10 seconds or so when I am online.. but when I disconnect it, the mouse is perfectly fine.
My TP-Link WR1043ND router is constantly dropping my cable connection on a daily basis. The problem is that when it does, it also freezes or at least when I try to access it through its IP it won't show anything, but a classic 404 error page. If I reboot it by unplugging and plugging it back it works fine after that.
I've noticed a problem with log collector on the secondary acs server. It suddenly stopped to collect logs.So, current acs version is 5.1.0.44.3 and all processes were running. During this time, ACS sent a couple of authentication reports in the monitoring system.But they can not be viewed through ACS Monitoring&Report system. The problem was solved by rebooting the server.
I have four 24-port BayStack switches connected to in a series, that have been freezing up over the past year (when I look at the front of the switches all connected ports are lit and and activity lights are not blinking but solid). I usually find the switches this way when someone at the church/school tell me that internet is down and the solution is to cycle the power on all switches. This has been happening more and more lately and I was wondering if anyone could, off the top of their head, possit a guess as to what is happening. Now these are configurable switches that I have not configured; I just bought them off of EBay and put them in line - they gave us years of trouble free service. My guess is that the switches are getting caught up in a loop and thus freezing them. My assumption is that the switches have STP running by default and maybe the STP stopped working. I have purchased 2 Cisco WS-C2948G-GE-TX to replace the BayStack switches, as our internet speed will be going over to Google Fibre in the next 2 months.
we have an hp laser printer 2055dn that kept on getting an error "49 err 6a2023e" whenever we plug in an ethernet cable (the ethernet light flashes like crazy as soon as we plug it in)
our setup: 1 Dlink router, everyone and everything is basically connected to that router (e.g. the printer).
how do i find out either if someone is sending crap to the printer that freezes it, and if so which computer it is? probably need its driver reinstalled i'm thinking.
I am having the same exact problem with the random freezing. I used to be sponsored on Xbox 360 for call of duty black ops and my mom met this guy and i had to move into his house, So now i had to drop my sponsorship and everything because i randomly freeze for about 3 seconds and then unfreeze and i jump forward and catch up to what apparently i was doing but not doing on my screen. It even happens on world of warcraft on my computer and it is very aggravating to have to deal with. And just like Cassius is saying "the ping spikes ruin online gaming entirely and tbh."
On a Microsoft xp network when we log off or shut down (randomly) users will have their computers lock or freeze at saving settings. The network is school district with around 1000 computers total.
-We think it is an issue with DNS or DHCP but we can not find anything only about our issue.
-It occurs randomly, but seems to target certain machines more. In a lab about 3 quarters of the computers are not affected and the other quarter will have it happen, but not every time. It will happen on student, teacher, and admin accounts.
-It has "spread" to 3 buildings now. At first it seemed to be an issues at one building but over the course of a week two new buildings are affected.
-No major changes in our network over the past month either.
Today I've received reports of slow internet access/activity and have noticed myself that it seems a bit slow today. On the dashboard of our asa 5510 the "outside interface" traffic usage is running constantly high. It's at the top of the graph. How can I tell what is causing the spike in utilization. It usually runs at about 1500-2000 Kbps, and now it's up over 10,000.
