My apartment complex limits each connection to 200KBps but each connection has the same IP so I thought there has to be an easy way to combine the connections. Is there a way to connect the wired network i'm connected to with the wireless one?
View 3 RepliesWe are looking into setting up wireless internet access for the whole complex.
1) We would have around 200 users at max (accounting for people to have more than one device or computer connected. Such as Xbox360 and whatnot). What speeds should we consider from a ISP.?
2) Should we get more than one ISP feed?
3) How many wireless access points should we get? (Ruffly we are looking at 5-6)
4) Where should the WAP's be placed around the complex? Considering the apartments are brick outside and inside regular wood frame/drywall construction type. Also should they be inside or outdoor WAP's.
5)What hardware should be considered? (switches, WAP's, ect...)
I own a Dell XPS M1330 laptop (Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit, service pack 1) that is about three and a half years old. I realize this Dell model has been discontinued. Work with me here. I STRONGLY believe after 6+ hours of personal troubleshooting that the laptop model is NOT the problem. I have lived at the same apartment complex the entire time I have owned this laptop. Up until a month ago when a new management company (the third one I’ve had) took over, I was able to use the free WiFi they offer at the office and the laundry room without one single speck of a problem weekly for YEARS. Suddenly I am getting: Unidentified Network: No Internet Connection with a public park bench (which it is a public network, I suppose) and a “!” over my perfect five bar signal. Therefore, we can rule out signal strength as the problem. I have a Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN Mino-Card, the card that came pre-installed with the laptop when I bought it brand new. Also, I know the Dell Wireless Card WLAN Utility is installed on this computer but I’ve always used Windows Network and Sharing Center to control the WiFi network I am connected to. I saw something somewhere about this maybe being the problem but since I’ve never used it I don’t think it has anything to do with my problem…
Talk about the router will be brief as it is my apartment complex they will not allow me access to the router so I know virtually nothing other than it is a Cisco wireless router, there are three office computers connected to it that run the internet just fine, and DCHP is enabled on both my laptop and the router (I may or may not have snuck in against their wishes to figure this one out…).
Also noteworthy are two things. One: I can connect to about a dozen other public WiFi networks around the city malls, coffee shops, bookstores, the college campuses, ECT. So connecting to WiFi is not the problem, this WiFi network specifically is (AKA. My NIC is NOT dead). I can also connect to my boyfriend’s private network at his house. The second thing worth noting is that once, I got the manager to cave and re-set the router for me. It connected! I re-started my computer and it still connected! I took my laptop back to my apartment, brought it back re-booted an hour late and it still connected! The next morning; back to the same old annoying problem. I asked him if they did ANYTHING with the computers at night and he said no.
As I stated, I have 6+ hours of troubleshooting pre-done on this problem. I have tried what I am able to with no access to the router (okay, maybe I snuck in and did a couple more things…) including:
Re-start laptop.
Re-start router.
Disable all firewalls/virus protection programs/ect.
Connect to the internet in Safe Mode.
Disable Bonjour.
Uninstall wireless card/re-install wireless card/un-install drivers/re-install drivers/update drivers.
Reset the TCP/IP stack.

I live in an apartment and I am forced to only use the apartment's internet service to go online. There are two ways to access the apartments network; via ethernet port or wifi. Once im connected and try to browse, I will first be taken an http login page to enter my username and password. The problem with this is I can only use the username and password for one computer at a time. Trying to get my second laptop to access the web using the same user and password will give me an error saying it is currently being used. As I have two laptops (work and personal), I would like to share the internet connection using a device that will allow either or both machines to connect simutaneously. What device will I need?

The reason was the password complexity (or length, which I did not try out). The password I used was "$SIMA$B3nlXySl-q+C&PnI" which is not in use any more . Now I use a password without special chars and it works fine.
I think this is a bug on the SRP527W, because it works fine with an old 836. How to report a bug to cisco? I'm Cisco SMB partner, but I'm not allowed to create a TAC service request.
I have a rather complex issue that involves a Cisco softswitch, a Cisco router configured for BGP routing, a L2 Cisco switch, and two RAD IPMUXs.I am including a flat diagram that illustrates the layer 2 connections. On the diagram, the number adjacent to the vertical connection bar is the vlans allowed on that connection, either switchport access or trunk.
I use BGP routing on the router to advertise various routes. The issue is that the routes for the RAD IPMUX216 and RAD24 are both being advertised correctly and can be seen from remote sites. For example, from any remote site, I can ping any address on vlan 60 such as the switch, router, and IMMUX216 IPs. However, I can only ping the vlan 61 IPs for the router and switch, but not the RAD24. Even from the Softswitch and Router, I cannot ping the vlan 61 ip of the RAD24, 172.22.248.6. I can ping the softswitch from the router and vice-versa.
Here is a flat diagram for the network with some snippets of code. I can provide more info if needed. I changed the routable IPs just to hide some of our actual info. If I ping 172.22.248.6 from the softswitch and then issue the "sh arp" command, I get:
Victoria-SW#sh arp

My internet comes in at one end of the apartment and then needs to travel about 60 feet and through three walls to get to the other end. Currently, the signal makes it about 25 feet through one wall and then fades. Should I use two extenders?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently moved into a new apartment complex where Internet is included with the rent, meaning that I do not have a personal Internet connection. Instead, the apartment company has a general connection along with a router on each floor of the complex. They then wire out from that connection to an ethernet port in each apartment. Because of that, calling the Internet company doesn't work because they can only tell me that the router on my floor is getting an Internet connection (and unfortunately my apartment is too far away from that router to have signal strength to use it for wireless). Most tenants plug their personal routers into the ethernet ports and use them for wireless connection within their apartments.
When I try to plug my router in, I cannot connect. I get an error message saying that there is no Internet connection. When I plug my Mac directly into the ethernet port, I still get no Internet connection. I've even tried plugging my netbook (PC) in, and get nothing. I have tried network diagnostics, I have used multiple ethernet cables, nothing. The previous tenant apparently plugged her router into the same ethernet jack I am using and had no problems. She has been gone for a few months, and now I cannot connect.
I live in a high rise apartment and my router is on channel 1 and other tenants are on cnannel 6 or channel 11.I have installed InSsider on my computer and according to the graph the channel one is riding around 47-51 khz which is better than everyone else.Do I need to change my router to a higher channel to get the best reception for my Wi-Fi internet?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been having a bit of a problem lately trying to play Battlefield 3 on my PS3 when other computers are running on my network.
I'm looking for a program or method to set bandwidth limits on some devices to try to guarantee the PS3 enough bandwidth to play without lagging.
With the research I have done what I can find is that there is something called Quality of Service (QoS), and traffic shaping -- which are good and fine but I don't believe my Westell router supports them and I don't want to have to do anything crazy with my router.
Also I am currently dual booting Ubuntu Linux alongside Windows XP, and I don't have XP set up because I want to install Windows 7 on that partition once I can read DVDs (in the hardware forum), therefor I would really like to find a Linux program that I can use to shape my network traffic.
I dont know if there is a way to set up donwload limits per I.P. address on my home network.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHow to confirm the PAT limit on the ACE-20s. I initially read it as 1 million (the NAT limit), however I have since read that for PAT, its 4 million as it uses the connection record information and not xlate.
I've always wondered why the xlate line under 'show resource usage' is zero. If PAT does use the connection record then this would explain why, however its confusing as when running a 'show xlate' command you do see all the current PAT entries.
I'm an electrical engineer by trade, and fairly inept at networking. That being said, I am looking to extend the maximum range of my networking equipment. I have a job which requires around 500' between switches, and am trying to find a clever way to bridge the gap. The span is direct-burial cat5e, and has very low bandwidth requirements. I know you can buy off-the-shelf range extenders, but they are expensive, so I thought maybe I could avoid it.
1. It my understanding that the lower speed protocols (10 Mbps rather that 100, 1000) have a longer maximum operating length, because they utilize a lower frequency and consequently see a lower impedance. If so, are there network switches that I can force to use the lower baseband frequencies?
2. Should I bother trying to find a cable with the lowest characteristic impedance (or will they all be similar)? Cat 5e is pretty good, yes?
3. Should I do half or full-duplex; is this something I can control as well?
4. What network switches are cheap and allow this type of configurability?
5. If I attach other switches to the ends of this 500' ethernet bridge with auto-negotiating feature, will there be any conflicts or they will all get along?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm doing a large-scale snmpwalk against an ASR9k (with IOS-XR v4.2.0) running as a provider edge router (full bgp table) and pulling the full contents of the BGP route table. On other routers, this completes within my timeout window, but not on the ASR9k.Figuring that this has to do with CoPP rate-limits, I've adjusted the rate-limits to ridiculously high values.
But still, the walk doesn't complete in an acceptable amount of time. Manual snmpwalks display a rate slower than even 7600s, with occassional stutters. CPU on the box doesn't even register that anything extraordinary is going on (@ 2 - 3%), and "show lpts pifib hardware police location" shows that there are 0 drops against SNMP.I haven't turned yet - either some traffic shaping mechanism or some combination of process scheduling/priority with SNMP.
We currently have ACS 5.4 and Cisco WLC 5508's deployed. We have wireless lobby admin accounts that can login and successfully create and modify guest wireless accounts. What we are trying to do, however, is give the lobby admins the ability to create wireless accounts with lifetimes longer than 30 days. Currently our setup will only allow the creation of permanent accounts (by entering all 0's in the lifetime fields) or accounts that last up to thirty days.

View 1 Replies View Relatedsetting up a simple internet plan for a place, but a LAN center needs crazy fast internet, faster than most large enterprise class offices that take up an entire floor or two. Otherwise there is too much lag in games like first person shooters. We are expecting to have 60 computers, plus people bringing their own gaming rigs from home and laptops as well, xbox, ps3 and other consoles, all accessing the internet at the same time to varying degrees, with no room for lag. There is a LAN center in california that has 200 or more computers and they pay for 9 t3 lines, which is thousands and thousands of dollars per month. Plus the initial equipment to set that up from what I can find on cdw is many thousands of dollars also. Something like 10,000 for a router with 4 expansion bays, and 4000-6000 dollars for a t3 expansion card, bringing the total to around 22-28,000 for equipment to do just 4 t3's. Plus the monthly cost. Since we don't need all of the traffic to be secured like a high end business class line like a t3, I was considering what it would be like, and how one would set up, having multiple cable internet lines coming in. They make cable wic cards for cisco routers. 4, 50meg cable lines would give us 200 down and 40 up but I don't know how to make that work without having multiple public ip's. I was thinking that if I did have multiple public ip's on the network I could just divide the computers up so that they are in groups, using all of the public ip addresses for gateways, so that the load is split pretty evenly, but still, there should be a more seamless way to do this, I just don't know what it is. At the rate for business cable internet, 4 lines would probably only cost around 700 dollars a month, which is much better than probably 5 grand a month for several t3 lines.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI just installed a new RV016, and have it up and running currently using just one WAN (cable) on the Internet2 port. Just FYI I do plan to have a second WAN on Internet1 (DSL) once I get this next step working and want that to be the dafault provider, hence the use of Internet2 for this first connection.I already have a WRVS4400N installed that has a whole network on it that will be independant to the new the network and am trying to connect the WRVS4400N to my RV016. It is currently plugged into port 8 of the RV016 and the port is currently set to VLAN2.I know just enough to be a danger to myself here. :-) The RV016 is using the default IP of 192.168.1.1 while the WRVS4400N uses 192.168.10.1.I do know that "Typically, a Cisco RV0xx Series router is used as an access router, with a single LAN subnet. By default, the firewall is pre-configured to deny LAN access if the source IP address is on a different subnet than the router’s LAN IP address. However, you can enable multiple subnets to allow this router to work as an edge device that provides Internet connectivity to different subnets in your LAN."Hence I have added added the 192.168.10.1 subnet with mask 255.255.255.0 (to the RV016) and have tried switching the WRVS4400N from Gateway mode to Router mode. The RV016 can see it but nothing on the WRVS4400N network has any internet access, while computers on RV016 do. I assume this is because of the firewall blocking the traffic.

My dynamic NAT is specified with:ip nat inside source list 1 interface Dialer0 overload access-list 1 permit 192.168.0.0 0.0.7.255 In addition to this I want to perform static NAT for a couple of selected internal hosts. I can do this:ip nat inside source static 192.168.1.5 10.85.10.2 which works fine but means that the source address 192.168.1.5 is translated to 10.85.10.2 for all destination IPs. What I want is for the above static translation only to occur for a particular destination subnet.To accomplish this I have tried:
ip nat inside source static 192.168.1.5 10.85.10.2 route-map toOtherSite
route-map toOtherSite permit 10
match ip address 150
access-list 150 permit ip 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 192.168.10.0 0.0.0.255
But this does not appear to work. Instead it seems to render the host 192.168.1.5 unable to progress through the NAT, whether the destination subnet is 192.168.10.0/24 or not, and I can't work out what I'm doing wrong.
