I'm installing WIFI for my personal business, and want to make sure my server and modem are unaccessable by WIFI users. I have the modem set to 192.168.1.1 and router(wifi) to 10.0.0.1. The problem is i can still type in 192.168.1.10 (server's ip address) or 192.168.1.1 while on WIFI and i get can still get to both.
View 2 RepliesThe task is to share Internet via Wireless router for visitors without any Proxy/Windows Domain authentication.We have:1) Windows based Domain with Active Directory Users, with no DHCP setup, only Static IPs allowed. Used as a DNS server, the IP-address is 192.168.1.1, Domain name, say, Internet Connection via Proxy server which authenticates users via above-mentioned DNS server, the Proxy server IP-address is 192.168.1.3, ruled by MS TMG (ISA server)3) A Wi-Fi Router Cisco E4200.The local area network is wired and works fine. Domain users are happy.The idea is to make visitors happy with a free Internet connection without wiring them into the LAN.So:1) Respected visitors would not have to set up static IP-adresses on their devices to connect to Internet and2) Respected visitors would not have to enter domain credentials to get access to Internet, but3) Network security should not be jeopardized.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am running an ASUS laptop with Windows 7. My wireless has been working fine, but my room is quite far from the router, so I bought a signal-booster USB aerial made by Realtek (REALTEK 11n USB Wireless LAN Driver and Utility). It came with a small software CD too which I installed, and it worked fine for two days and boosted my wireless signal.However (you knew it was coming, the story can't stay happy) soon the red light on the USB booster stopped blinking and it showed the red 'x' where my wifi connections are. I couldn't get it to re-establish a connection without doing a full system restore and re-installing the USB signal booster, which would then work again for a short amount of time (maybe a day, maybe an hour). And worse, now when the USB booster is unplugged from the computer my laptop will not return to recognising wireless connections like it did before I installed the USB signal booster. It simply does not find any connections - the only time it does is directly after I have re-installed the software from the small disc which came with the Realtek USB signal booster.
I have now uninstalled the Software and anything made by Realtek but still it is finding no connections.Now I would just like to find a way to get back to where I started when my computer was finding all wireless connections like normal... a connection with a weak signal is better than this nightmare of constantly restoring my computer just to get a brief connection

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm involved in setting up a new office for a business that's just starting out. I have some computer experience but not a whole lot in networking and security. We just have 3 people that will be working in the office and we need a way to store/backup/share files on the network as well as a way to access them remotely if need be. Our internet service is going to be providing us with a static IP. I was thinking that we could use an NAS with RAID 1 attached to the router, which is in turn connected to the cable modem, but I'm not sure if this is secure. Do we need some type of hardware firewall in between the cable modem and the router to protect us from the outside?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a 'Comcast Business Gateway' a friend gave me and I would like to use it instead of the regular gateway. The business gateway has extra Ethernet ports on the back where as the regular gateway just has one for your router. I plugged in the business gateway and I couldn't access the network. I used 10.1.10.1 which I thought was comcast's default but to no avail. I am not a tech so I am now stuck.The whole reason I am trying to do this is because the wireless routor is in the house, with a ethernet wire running to the shop. This distance is about 60 feet. I have the computer pluged into the wire but I can't get the printer or the other computer to connect to the wireless. I would like to connect the Business Gateway to the house wireless and then run the hard wire to the shop and connect another wireless router to the wire and run the shop on its own wireless. I tried one of the wireless extenders and it does not have enough juice.

View 4 Replies View RelatedHe currently has 1 server, and 11 workstations, he also has a network switch that we will be replacing.We have picked out a Dell server, running Windows Server 2008 R2 that will be used as the main file server, as well as the domain controller. Where I seem to be confused is on setting up the networking component, particularly how the machines will get IP addresses. As mentioned, I will be purchasing a new Ethernet switch, in order to get the fastest LAN speed possible; I have selected the Dell PowerConnect 2816, which is a 10/100/1000Mbs switch. My question is, will I be letting the switch handle the IP's/DHCP or would I be better off, setting up the server for DHCP? If so, do I also setup the server as the DNS server? From what I am reading online using the server as the DHCP/DNS server gives us more management capabilities and is more "secure". As a test, I loaded Windows Server 2008 R2 on a home machine and played around with this. I got a bit lost on the DHCP and DNS setup and it appears that one needs a Static IP from your ISP in order to setup your serve as the DHCP/DNS server for the domain. Is this correct? I haven't been to his office yet to check out all the existing equipment, is it safe to assume that his ISP provides a router or whatever is needed to feed the switch?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm currently using LMS 3.2 to monitor my network. We've recently purchsed a few of the Cisco Small Business Switches, the SF 300-24 model to be exact. They're considered 'managed switches' (tho thier CLI is terrible) and I would like to monitor them in CWLMS. My problem is that once I add it to CS, it doesn't resolve to anything, just sits there as a blue box with a question mark. I'm assuming this means that these devices are not (currently) supported by LMS 3.2 - do you know if that will change, or how I can go about managing this device with LMS 3.2?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking to start a proposal for the smallish business I work for. We have about 65 devices on the network with ~ 12 being VOIP phones. Currently our network consists of 2 cisco 2950's and a bunch of daisy chained consumer 5 port switches. I would like to get a couple of 48 port 2960S or 3XXX series catalysis' and run drops to all the devices. It's an older brick building with beamed 15 foot ceilings. It has a couple of semi-enclosed office spaces, with one large space for all the developers and designers. The plan I have involves running a cable tray down the length of the office and run drops off of the main run. I would like to be as cheap as possible with the cable tray, but it seems like all the trays I have seen are about ~50-100 dollars per 10' (not including mounting hardware). Seems extremely expensive for basically wire baskets.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a business network that I'd like to separate two sets of computers all together (thinking through a firewall rule or other method). Here's a text example of what I want to achieve:
Group A: PC 1, PC 2, PC 3 (can see each other and share files within this group)
Group B: PC 4, PC 5, PC 6 (can see each other and share files within this group)
But Group A & B can not see each other and are blocked from accessing each other.Can this be done with the DIR 655 or do I need to upgrade? Also, these two groups will be sharing the same internet connection.
Currently we have the Synology DS212J system and that backups to the cloud as well.The problems are not being able to access it remotely easily, space, and the cloud integration is too slow and not reliable enough.
So we need a larger network, that is easily accessible remotely and backs up regularly. The main thing that will be taking up a lot of space over time is a lot of artwork files. A lot of these don't require on site network access, so if we had 30% storage local and the rest remote that would be fine, everything needs to be accessible remotely still though.
One thing I was looking into was Amazon storage gateway, it is pricey though so I'm wondering what other options there are. URL
Perhaps a larger NAS with different backup would work? It needs to run more seamless than the cloud is. We used Jungledisk before this which worked great with only a few users but we are now at 10+ users and growing.
We recently deployed SG300-28 to replace an old 3Com switch.The setup: RVS400 router and all workstations and server are plugged into the SG300 switch.The problem: Windows 7 workstations are unable to obtain IP addresses from the server which is also plugged into the switch.If however, we plug in the worstations into the 4 port switch on the back of the RVS4000 (the router), they get IPs from the server no problem. This worked just fine with the old 3Com switch.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have recently purchased a Cisco 887w router for my small business to replace our Netgear DGN-3500. We have made the change to allow greater access to our internal IT infrastructure from remote locations. For the most part I have been able to work through the configuration but I have reached a point now where I can go no further. The WLAN, LAN and WAN all seem to be working well together as a basic setup but I cannot get any port forwarding/NAT to work.
So far I have attempted to configure two NATd services, both with the same result. I am trying to direct port 80 through to our web server, and port 444 to our VPN server. Both seem to undergo translation ok (if i am reading ip nat trans output correctly) but then the packets disappear. The VPN client annouces that the connection timed out, and the browser goes nowhere. Also, if i use an online port check it tells me that 80 and 444 are closed, with no packets returned.
I have spent a few days with no progress. The output of the log (attached txt file) might be meaningfull to somone with a stronger background with Cisco routers... I have also included the config and some other output that might be useful.

I have 4 SF300 switches I need to cascade together but the user guides do not seem to cover the physical aspects of cascading the switches.Here is what I was planning.

SW2 (port GB2) --> SW3 (port GB1)
SW3 (port GB2) --> SW4 (port GB1)
SW3 (port GB2) --> SW1 (port GB1) - loopback for cascade cable redundancy.
Does this sound about right?after initial use the setup will be changed to place switches 3 and 4 in a factory at which time we will then use the GBIC connectors and fibre to connect SW2 to SW3 and then SW4 back to SW1.
