Had a WNDR 3700, as I do, and replaced it with a 4500 and whether it was worth the upgrade.I can always use the 3700 as a wireless repeater in the living room, where I kind a need one anyway.
View 7 RepliesI am working w/ WNDR3700, and I've been trying to take a look at the traffic meter to judge how much I actually us.
In 7 days I supposedly already used 30gig. There are only two computers to the network and the most we do is Pandora/gaming. Is this router incorrectly reading incoming/outgoing data? Is there someone logging into my router and downloading freaking porn or something? Because whenever I check to see connected devices, I only see our comps, are they able to hide their device on the router?

The most I do on the web is schoolwork/pandora and play league of legends or counter strike.
The only difference I can see is the 3700 has gigabit ports. Any other performance differences about with these two routers? I already have the 3400 but I am wondering if I chose the wrong router seeing as the 3700 is only ten bucks more. What there experiences were or there knowledge of these two products or even opinions. I have a gaming PC hard wired, ps3 wireless, nexus 7 wireless, and LG Media Player wireless in a 1400 square foot house with one wall between ps3 and 2 walls between media player. I doubt range will be an issue with either routers though. I might transfer files between PC's later on but 10/100 should still be pretty good speed or not so much?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI bought this wireless router about a year+ ago, and it's just great. It's attached to the cable modem "downstairs" and right now it supports 2 smartphones wirelessly plus an ancient wired cable to an "upstairs" home office.
I'd like to improve overall performance with a wireless bridge to a gigabit hub in the upstairs office. I'd also like to add a second wireless bridge so I can stream movies to a box that would be attached to my TV, which does not have built-in wireless access.
Trendnet seems to have some interesting wireless bridges, but in the past I had a Trendnet wireless router with really, reallly bad software.
I'm getting decent signal through my 3 story home with my new router, however, there are some dead spots on the 3rd floor.
This is my setup:
1. WNDR-3700 Router on main floor
- TV is hooked up router (internet tv)
- VOIP modem hooked up to router
- USB drive hooked up to router for transferring files from computers upstairs to router USB driver
So basically, the router MUST stay where it is. I'm wondering if it's possible to WIRELESS-LY connect my WNDR-3700 router to another BELKIN wireless router. possible at all?
Have a new 4500-x (Comes with IPBase enabled), but I see only universal image is available for download (Which I understand has "all" features)...assume it is safe to use the latest universal image on 4500-x and the IPBase license will be automatically applied?
I also see there is a new rom upgrade available - Is this the correct procedure to follow: [URL]
Should I be doing the rom upgrade first?
I want to upgrade to the latest IOS for a client of mine. My client has the following image: cat4000-i5k91s-mz.122-25.EWA14.bin

I am planning to upgrade Cisco 4948 IOS upgrade. We have few with older code( 12.2(25)EWA7), when issue sh version shows as Catalyst 4000 L3 Switch Software. while newer version of the switch show as Catalyst 4500 L3 switch.
1 Is this/(sh ver output) just because of the Older code ?
My 2 question is according to release note : [URL]
You need to upgrade your ROMMON before the IOS . 2 What is the approximate time it take to do this ROMMON upgrade ?
Verizon recently sent an e-mail to a friend of mine suggesting that she modify the server settings in her Windows Mail (her OS is Vista -- ugh!) to use SSL. It's an easy change (have to change the POP3 port to 995 and the SMTP port to 465, and choose SSL/TLS for encryption).I know nothing about encryption protocols and what advantages they provide over unencrypted e-mail. For example, earlier this week, she received a hacker e-mail (the infamous "shipping confirmation" that appears to come from Amazon.com, but all the links open "redpouch.com", which immediately tries to upload malware to your computer). She (and I) have no idea how the hacker got her e-mail address -- or those of a dozen other addressees all of whom have the domain "verizon.net".It would appear the hacker got into Verizon's server and stole the addresses. Would using SSL make that impossible to do? If not, what extra security does it provide?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've been replacing my Netgear WNDR3700 (currently only serving as wired router and gigabit switch) with an Untangle box.Obviously, only the free "Lite" version would be worth it, as the others are priced ridiculously for non business use. I've had a hard time figuring out from their webpage how the features of the "Lite" compare to the others, particularly how Spam Blocker Lite, Web Filter Lite and Virus Blocker Lite compare to the full versions of each.
Is the untangle router any good? How do its management features compare with consumer solutions?The new web caching feature seems really cool too, especially when multiple systems grab the same large updates or download the same steam games, but at $54/year it seems a bit excessively priced for home use, so I'd probably just be sticking with the base free version.
I have a Netgear wndr3400 and a wg602 can I use the wg602 as a repeater or bridge?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just replaced a printer on my network and assigned it the same IP address as the old printer. When our workstations were XP, all that I would have to do is apply the IP address to the new printer and, as long as the drivers were compatible, the printer would work.Now that we have Win7 on the workstations, it grays out the printer and wont let me re-enable it.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just finished wiring my gigabit network. It's important to note that I DO NOT know what the cables look like inside the wall; I did not run them myself and only terminated the wall plates and patch cables.
Network looks like this, all 1gbps links: WAN to WNDR4000 router Port 1 on the WNDR4000 goes to Desktop, port 2 goes to Windows Home server,When I initiate a Desktop -> Server transfer from the Desktop, I get 106 megabytes per second transfer rate.
When I initiate a Server -> Desktop transfer from the Desktop, I get 21 Megabytes per second.
When I initiate a Desktop -> Server transfer from the Server, I get 80 megabytes per second.
When I initiate a Server -> Desktop transfer from the Server, I get a 80 megabytes per second.
Shouldn't it be the same regardless of which machine requests the transfer? The really weird thing is the Desktop only pulling 21 Megabytes per second from Desktop initiates transfers, whereas if I remote into the server and initiate the EXACT SAME transfer from there, it jumps to 80 megabytes per second. This makes no sense as they should use the same wires.....
There is no special requirements, just need new hardware with some reserve availability. As for now it's 3745 EOL and I assume to use 3945.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to replace a 4402 with a 2504 controller and put a 2504 controller in the DMZ for guest access. The 4402 would be replaced at a remote site (not hreap) and support a couple of wlans, one of those would not be local and would be anchored back to the 2504 in the DMZ for the guest services. All of my 5508's also would be hitting the 2504-DMZ to anchor the guest service as well. Is this still feesable in the 2504 series?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI had a wired router (dlink) that worked fine until it died. So I bought a netgear wndr 3400 v2 wireless router.I can connect to the wifi with my phone, but not with my desktop (running vista home basic).I called my isp, and we went through all the physical set up and that was fine, but it still said unknown network....he said it was that vista was not recognizing my new router....Here is my ipconfig /all business

Have a 5510 in Routed mode, simple Static NAT to interface two networks (inside_1 is my private space, and outside_1 the larger intranet that hosts heavy traffic). outside_2 faces internet via pppoe just for VPN purposes.
It was operating fine for one year then one port broke (outside_2, internet), leaving no vpn. We followed RMA service replacement and the new unit came with upgraded SW (8.0.4) than the one the original config was created on (8.0.2).
To ease the replacement, I did downgrade the sw boot image. Then I did restore the config by tftp to the startup-config and then a reload. Everything seems to load fine.
Problem is that testing reveals some sort of issue: I can ping some of the intranet hosts but can't reach gateway, thus larger segment of hosts become unreachable. It seems as if the NAT mechanism can't find the next gateway where to hop. For debug practice, I've enabled all the icmp stuff so ping wasn't being blocked by the device.
Being given the fact that this config was up and running prior to the replacement, I've no reason to suspect any mysconfigured items (ie routes, NAT, access-list), but obviously I'm obfuscated and can't see what else I'm missing.
How is that possible that the PING only reaches certain hosts? Pinging to 10.15.5.90 works (Route is 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 to 10.15.5.126 (gw)), but pinging to the gateway itself doesn't (10.15.5.126) and even worse, hosts like 10.15.167.210 do not respond either.
A few weeks ago, I replaced a PIX 515E with a pair of ASA 5520's. We have a few basic web applications behind the ASA's. Nothing complex; just port 80/443 traffic. During the swap, we basically just copied the config from the PIX to the ASA. So the config is virtually identical.
Since the swap, we have one small set of users who gets timed out when trying to get to the application. This small set of users are scattered across the state of Alaska, and they are all accessing the Internet via a satellite connection. All other users across North America can access the application just fine.
Since the satellite connections are relatively slow, but they worked fine when going through the PIX, I suspect the issue is a difference in the default TTL (or similar parameter) between the PIX and the ASA.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Dell Dim2400 computer with Pentium 4, Windows XP Service Pack 3, which I purchased surplus from work, where documents were saved on both the computer and a networked server. Once home, "My Documents" could be opened until the wireless router was changed from a D-Link WBR-1310 to a Belkin Play N600. Thereafter, "My Documents" would not open and instead a window labeled "My Documents" opens with the message: "The network folder,\...........My Documents, that contains My Documents is not available. Try again later, or contact your system administrator for further assistance." A rare coincidence or is there some causal relationship?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have an ASA5520 with VPN working fine.We replaced the router, which upgraded the OS from v12.2 to v15.0. We duplicated all the addressing and routing statements from the old router. Now the VPN still connects but the outside host can't ping the inside host anymore. The outside host can't ping any further than the inside interface of the router (10.4.1.1). The Router can ping the outside host, so I know the tunnel is up.I suspect there is a difference in the OS versions that is tripping us up. Perhaps in the way that we have reused the 10.x.x.x address range?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI used to be able to set an uplink port with the interface command "port network" so that it would not learn all the mac addresses that are being flooded down to the switch. It does not seem to be there on the 2950's or 35XX switches.
Where did it go and what is replacing it? Interface is a Trunk port as well.

As you wil see, the dw1501 wireless network card is not support this connection speeds even though the card is advertised as a wireless N card. Some users managed to replace their card with the better ones.
