Running Ethernet Network Between 2 Buildings 1000 Feet Apart?
Jul 16, 2011
I need to a run an Ethernet network between 2 buildings 1000ft apart. The buildings are in a forest so I don't think wireless is possible. What kind of cable can I run between the two buildings and what type of adapters do I need on each side?
Two buildings on same farm property 660 feet apart. Cable internet to one building does not reach 660 feet to second building and the cable company will not put it in. Wireless between the buildings is not out of the question; but, I've never done anything this distance before and I am concerned that signal loss over 660 feet might degrade throughput.
So, what is a feasible way of getting the signal from the first building 660 feet to the second building?
I have a Realtek PCI GBE Family Controller. I recently reinstalled Win7 and it loaded drivers for the card automatically. I actually didn't notice the speed issue until I went to move stuff around on the home network.
The Device Manager lists the above NIC. Under Properties I have:
Auto Disable Gigabit = Disabled Speed & Duplex = Auto Negotiate
I tried setting Speed & Duplex to 1.0 Gbps Full Duplex but I only interrupted a file transfer by doing this. (The Network icon in the System Tray indicated that the network connection was lost.)
I am using Cat5E 1 Meter or less cables. I have 2 PCS next to my desk with a D-Link Gigabit Switch sitting on top of one of the computers. AFAIK all ports on the switch support Gigabit.
A 500 ft Ethernet run with a mid-point POE extender, what should I use on both ends for best results? Looking for a possible switch at the termination end. I'm using enhanced Cat5E cable.CGMAN
I have a Linksys WRT54G 2.4ghz at one point and need the signal to go 300 feet to another location. Running an RJ45 cable that distance want work and no way to run any kind of land lines. Everything will have to be done wirelessly.
What equipment do I need to get the signal to reach out to 300 feet?
How to design network with two buildings. each buildings five- storey buildings.buildings 1 has 200 computer and buildings 1 has 150 computer. which topology and cabling to use
Plan a network to Connect 2 buildings 3 storey high with a distance of 500m between each building. Each floor is occupied by the Finance Department, Administration Department and Computing Department.the report should have the following items. Anything extra is encouraged.
a. Introduction b. Network Diagrams c. Devices that will be used.
Understand they are using dfferent cat cable. Does Cisco equipment nromally all are 1000-T, how to check they are 1000-T or 1000-Tx, does cat 5 with 4 pairs already support GE speed.
My pc is windows xp an has service pack 3, the adaptor is realtek RTL8168/8111 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC. I have 3 gig of memory and a very larg nvidia card. OK my pc has worked absolutely fine until this weekend when my sister came and her son was on my pc when everyone was in bed. He attempted to print of not less than 88!! pictures he had acquired from different sites but i had disconnected the printer so it didnt take place. When they left earlier today i switched on my pc and there was a virus alert so i ran a scan. These got put into the chest. I then attemtpted to close down the programmes that had come back up when i switched on and this is when it happened. The pc told me it was going to shut down and when it restarted i had not internet connection. I checked the modem and the ethernet light is out.
I tried to do a favor for a friend. He has this terrible Dimension 4700c running XP.I went to the dell site and found the Intel driver and also foudn the chipset. The Ethernet Controller still has yellow question mark. I stried to pint the ? to the Unzipped file under C://dell/drivers etc...!
I'm using an XFX 750I motherboard and a D-link DWR-112 router to connect to my network. It is showing that it's using 100 Mbps when connected through above mentioned motherboard's Ethernet port. Can I get 1000 Mbps i.e. 1 Gbps networking speed in my local area network?
I like to fight spam emanating from my network. How to do it and which equipement to use?I have an SCE 1000 series, i'll like to know if it can do the job.
My only issue at the moment and im not sure if im doing something wrong but the wireless card is Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1000 and it says it can do Wireless N Connection but im not able to get it connected to the wireless N network. When i go in to view the options it gives for Wireless Mode it says B/G or just B or G. Now up top it does say 802.11N Mode and has the option for Enable and Disable and its Enabled. I have uninstalled the driver and intel software and reinstall everything a few times but no resolve. How i need to get the card to connect to the N Network?
just found that on [URL], it stated that Cisco ASR 1000's management tool is Cisco Prime Network Analysis Module, which is same name as software that can be install in SRE of Cisco ISR G2 router for network analysis via web browser.
My question here is this mean Cisco ASR 1000 has built-in support for Cisco Prime Network Analysis Module, which has similar function as the one on Cisco ISR G2 router's SRE?
I installed Windows XP Professional SP3 x64. Naturally, the Device Manager informs me of missing drivers with the yellow question mark. I am looking for the driver called "Ethernet Controller".
I have looked under Drivers & Downloads for Dell Precision Workstation T5400 with my service tag <ADMIN NOTE:Service tag removed per privacy policy>. I have installed over 45 drivers but I still can't find the ethernet controller I'm looking for. I'm frustrated because I cannot connect to the internet or use ipconfig without this.
I have problem of dell wireless my notebook is VOSTRO 1000 i installed all wireless drivers and still have the problem. Wireless icon is disappear and see error message that tells like this:
"THE WIRELESS NETWORK ADAPTER COULD NOT BE ACCESSED . THIS APPLICATION MAY HAVE DIMINSHED FUCTIONALITY AS A RESULT".
I checked the NIC Properties and the Speed & Duplex only shows the following 10 half, 10 full, 100 half, 100 full and auto. There is no 1000 half and 1000 full. My old gigabit NIC on my old computer shows all, 10s, 100s, and 1000s and the auto. They tried to fix it and even changed the driver but it still is not showing the 1000s. Their option was to change the motherboard with a refurbished one and my computer was just bought just 2 months ago. The original computer had 12GB memory, I7, AMD graphics card, 460 PSU. no blue-ray, no usb 3. The new setup is 16GB memory, I7, Nvidia GeForce GT 550 Ti, Usb 3, Blue-ray, I think 800 PSU.I am running Win 7 Home Premium 64. I have a Gigabit connection from my internet service so I wanted the NIC to go that fast too. The specs shows the computer to have a Gigabit NIC but the properties is not showing the 1000s.
Wondering if this switch is capable of being a backbone switch for a network of about 1000+ users and if the switch can handle a sustained 30Meg of data going across it?
i want to know the difference in features between 3.5 feet dish antenna and 4.0 feet dish antenna.can any one let me know that size of the dish really matters.
the camera is about 30 feet from the router. Is it too far for the camera to be detected? After I mounted the camera at the front door, after connecting the camera to the electric power, I saw clearly the picture. But after I finished mounting, I could not see the picture anymore. On the computer, it was stated that the camera was offline.
I need to bridge from our office to our shop that is around 800 feet away. Here are the Details
I need the 2.4 ghz antenna for client access (Iphones are not compatiable with 802.11a) The locations are 800 feet away but are line of sight. I need to use the 5ghz antenna for the bridge i have 2 aironet 1242ag's I have 2 2.4 ghz AIR-ANT3213 antennas (planned for client access) I have 2 2.4 ghz AIR-ANT2506 (maybe useless for this)
My problem is that the range of all the listed 5 ghz antennas. None that i can find will bridge 54mb over the 5ghz radio for greater than 170ft
The closest that i can find is AIR-ANT5195. If i put these on both sides and it is outdoors line of sight, will the best i can hope for is functioning and 6mb
i need to draw a picture of a network being divided into two buildings one with 100 connections and the other with 560 connections and also need to assign ip and subnets on them. how many routers do i need for this?what class of ip do i need to use?what are the subnets
I've recently lost my ability to access the internet at uni and as this is quite an inconvenience I am considering some alternatives, the most viable one I've managed to come up with hinges on the fact that I live in a building which is only a road and another building away from the main uni buildings (3 buildings on 2 city blocks), basically it looks like this: UNI BUILDING 1 | UNI BUILDING 2 |ROAD| UNI BUILDING 3 |ROAD| MY APARTMENT.So I'm thinking of building one of these: url.. or waiting for the r20000g (dual band) to come out and buying that.THEN the area I'm having a bit of trouble with: I need to get reception about 600-700m away through buildings, so I've been looking at Yagi antennas and such but can't seem to find any information on the following:
1. Will a high powered directional antenna go through a few buildings and still make it 1km (.6 miles)
2. How directional is a directional antenna? like if I point one in the general direction of the building how accurate do I have to be? (I have no problem buying 4-5 antennas if I need to)
3. Do I need a new Wi-Fi antenna for my laptops? it seems odd to me that a laptop would be able to transmit back 1km while I need a giant antenna to get to the laptop (I know its not this simple but it still seems odd)
I'm a skydiver and since 2 years, the dropzone where I jump have been putting webcam around the area to see what's happening on the dropzone live online. I talk to them about a project and they said it would be great but I don't know how to do it or if it's even possible to do.We would like to put a wireless camera onboard one of the planes so that ppl can see what is happening up there and that would stream live directly on their website like the other cameras they have around... the thing is, we jump from 13 500 feet.
I've been in a home office for the past 2 years with 30mb internet, but I will be getting an office soon downtown. The building I'm moving into has free wifi, what is my best option to connect to this with my desktop?
1. Using an ethernet cable from my desktop to my ASUS rt-56n router as a bridge to connect to the buildings wifi.
2. Buying a wireless adapter to connect to the buildings wifi.
My phone only gets 2 bars when connecting so I'd like to know which of the options above will give me a faster and more reliable connection.
I have two buildings on my property that I need to network together. One is my home about 3500 Sq. Ft. and the other is a garage about 3000 Sq. Ft. The two buildings are about 250 feet away from each other. Both are fed from the same utility pole that is half way between them. That means both are on the same transformer, but each has its own metered electrical service.Right now I am using 10 Mb. Home Phone Line network adapters. They work OK but data speeds are limited to about 5 Mb. of throughput and the adapters are no longer available. I also have WiFi at both locations but neither one will talk far enough to cover the other building.I also use X10 remote controls in my house. I have tested them from the house to the garage and they do not work at all over that distance
