| Is there a way to convert coaxial to phone jack? Posted: 26 Sep 2018 03:39 PM PDT My new internet set up is apparently DSL. Unfortunately, I have no working phone jacks in my house. I do, however have several of those coaxial(?) hookup things for cable. I just want to know if there is a converter I could purchase before I spend money I don't have for a phone jack to be installed. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2018 01:02 PM PDT So I've run into a bit of a wall regarding what I should purchase. In my situation there's about 15+ devices in our house, and I've got a 4-5 year old Netgear N600 supporting it. For the past year or so, some devices get dropped, or the wifi will simply out crap out. I'm sure the router is giving out, and I looked at the Nighthawk as a replacement. Would this be a sound idea? The only things wired are my PS4 and my desktop, so I usually don't have to deal with the wifi. But constantly resetting it is getting tiring, and if simply upgrading the router is enough then I'll go ahead and do it. [link] [comments]  |

| R7000/xwrt - iperf3 results on gigabit ports Posted: 26 Sep 2018 08:50 AM PDT Hello, I have a R7000 flashed to the latest xwrt/vortex firmware. I have two devices both with gigabit ports (NUC, a OSMC device). When running iperf3 on the server (via Entware) and the two clients, I consistently get around 650 Mbits/sec on bandwidth. Shouldn't I get closer to 900? Thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| Just want to be sure im understanding these things correctly Posted: 26 Sep 2018 08:10 AM PDT Technology my god. lol I've scoured the boards and I just want to make sure I understand things right... So this is what I'm planning on doing: Modem> Router #1 > MOCA/Powerline-A > MOCA/ Powerline- B> WAN-Router #2 Let's say both routers (TP-Link AC1750)/ adapters have Gigabit Ethernet ports From Router #2, i'm going to connect my PC through a LAN port and do wireless shenanigans on my laptop. So basically, my connection between the routers is a client bridge. If I get 100mbps through the modem, then since it's a wired connection all the way through to Router #2, i SHOULD be getting speeds pretty close to 100mbps to my PC (recognizing that the speeds are dependent on the electrical/ coaxial wiring), with exception to my laptop as it is using a wireless connection. And because the internet is going into the WAN port, Router #2 would operate as it's own network and " cannot see devices on the other router on the local network"? However, if I connect the internet into a LAN port on Router #2, it would operate as a wireless access point and it would be able to recognize devices connected to Router #1. I am understanding that I should still theoretically be getting similar speeds to 100 mbps to Router #2, as it is still considered a wired connection. Would there be a difference in speed between connecting to the WAN port or a LAN port? I understand that the more devices that are connected to a router, (traffic), the slower speeds can get. So if 3 wired devices are connected to a single router, each device would get like 33-something mbps. So in my example, if 3 wired devices were connected to Router #1 and 1 wired device was connected to Router #2, each device would get around 25 mbps. Or would all speed go to the devices connected to Router #1 and whatever speed is left over from the devices reaching their bandwidth then go to Router #2? Thanks for taking the time!!!

| Cisco AnyConnect Pre-deploy packages Posted: 26 Sep 2018 01:33 PM PDT Trying to get AnyConnect up and running on a Cisco 1921 router. Does anyone know how/where to get the pre-deploy packages for AnyConnect (packages that contain the web UI and client)? There's no way for me to get a Smartnet contract on this device.

| Home network with 2 routers does it matter which I connect directly to ONT? Posted: 26 Sep 2018 05:14 PM PDT I have an r7000p and an r7000. I have FTTH and the Nokia ONT from my ISP is upstairs. Does it matter which router I connect directly to the ONT upstairs? The 2nd router is going to plug into one of my ethernet wall outlets which is ran straight up to one of the other routers lan ports. So does it matter which I have as the main router and which I have setup as the AP??? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2018 12:18 PM PDT I need to get my wifi signal from my house to an RV a 1/4 mile away. It is across an open field so I feel this is doable, I just am wondering what the best setup is? The RV will not be moving 1.Can I connect an omni-directional antenna to house router and capture the signal with RV router? 2.Can I connect an antenna to the RV router and capture the signal from the house? 3.Do I need to setup a Bridged Connection? 4. Other Solution. Which ever option you suggest can you also recommend the products? [link] [comments]  |
| Best way to get a good wireless signal in basement of older home Posted: 26 Sep 2018 07:23 PM PDT I have a home that is brick with plaster walls built in the 40s. My gaming computer is down in the basement. What are my options to get a strong signal down here. If I'm up stairs and run a speed check close to router I get about 180mb/s but when im down here it varies from 50-100 and has a very weak signal. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Internet Speed faster than Internal Speed? Posted: 26 Sep 2018 07:18 PM PDT XPost with r/wireless - I'm probably just being dumb and feel free to say so, but I can run a speed test on the internet speed through a browser speed test on my wireless AC computer and get ~100Mbps and can see it is accurate in task manager. Why is it when I run a program like AIDA32 or NetStress I can only achieve ~70-80Mbps both on up and down? Is it limited by HDD speed? Even if it is I would've imagined it being faster. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2018 07:02 PM PDT I have the Mediacom 200mb plan with the not-so-great provided modem and a separate router which I purchased. My speed on an ethernet connection is around 80mbps down, which is pretty lackluster, though it's what I have come to expect from Mediacom. As of late, the Mediacom provided modem has been overheating and dropping connection several times per day. I put a cooling pad under it in hopes that I could catch it before any significant damage was done. Unfortunately, it still drops my connection a few times per day. So instead of trading it in for another, I want to purchase something a bit nicer that will hopefully get me at least closer to the advertised speeds. I've been looking around for a while, but there are just so many options available that it's overwhelming. I don't know what brands or models are reliable. I looked around the sub for a while, trying to find a generic list of recommended models, but I couldn't find one, so I figure I'll just ask. There are just two requirements, DOCSIS 3.0 or 3.1, and a minimum of 8 downstream channels. In addition, I'd really like something with good VPN support. Price isn't that big of an issue, just nothing terribly unreasonable. I'd really appreciate any help and suggestions, and I do apologize because I'm sure this has been covered, I just don't even know where to start. Edit: additionally, I do play a lot of online games on my PC. I'm not sure if that will change possible suggestions, but I figured I'd mention it just in case. [link] [comments]  |
| Is it possible to get full gigabit bandwidth out of a wired router connection? Posted: 26 Sep 2018 06:52 PM PDT I'm on router #3 at this point, and I'm wondering if I'm just dreaming too big. I get ~980mbps out of the modem, but the best i've got from a router (ASUS RT-AC1900P) is ~600mbps. I've toggled NAT, hardware acceleration, QoS, Bandwidth Limits, basically anything I've been able to find via googling the models I've had, and nothing has brought me within 2/3rds of the bandwidth that I confirmed is coming out of the modem. So basically my question is, is anyone out there getting full (or even nearly-full) gigabit bandwidth? What did you have to do to get it? [link] [comments]  |
| Port forwarding won’t work for pi camera stream Posted: 26 Sep 2018 04:55 AM PDT So I set up a stream using raspberry pi camera and motion, and it's working within my local network. When I got to 192.168.0.25:8081 it shows the stream. I have the pi set to static IP. I used no-ip to create a ddns domain for my public up, and in my mediacom router settings I have start port 8081 end port 8081 target port 8081. However I can't get it to work from outside the network using my ddns domain or just typing my public ip:8081. No port check will show 8081 as open, but when I scan my public IP with nmap it shows 8081 open. When I called mediacom for instructions to get in router, they don't allow it but have a web interface to do some stuff including portforwarding. However the guy said they don't support port forwarding and if it works great if not buy my own router. So you guys think it's on their end not mine? [link] [comments]  |
| Repost from Networking. Newbie to home networking and I had a questions. Posted: 26 Sep 2018 06:16 PM PDT Sorry if this thread has already been posted. Just bought a new home and I had my builders pre wire all the rooms with cat6 cable. I want to know the big differences in 568A and 568B standards. My house is all ready keystoned to 568A. I'm getting ready to patch the cables to my patch panel. Should I take the extra time and re-keystone all my jacks to 568B? Will all my electronics work with 568B? Examples: smart tv's, Xbox, ps4? I'm planing on doing all Ubiquiti equipment for my home network. Any thoughts are appreciated. Thank you. [link] [comments]  |
| Firmware updates for home router, simple question. Posted: 26 Sep 2018 05:45 PM PDT There have been 3 firmware updates since my factory installed version on my Asus RT-ACRH13. Question is... do I need to go in chronological order and install each? Or just the most current. Newb question, not super tech savvy. Any response is appreciated. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |

| Working remotely from other country using VPN Posted: 26 Sep 2018 03:51 PM PDT Hello. I am currently working remotely in US from home office for a US company who is working for other offices. I am planning to move overseas (Europe) for a while but I want to keep my current job. I have a static IP from my ISP. I have to connect to VPN (each office has its own VPN) and than access the offices remote desktop connection. I want to be able to do it from other country securely and stealthily so it looks like I am working from US office. I was thinking of setting up a private server and VPN and connect to it but I am not sure how stable would it be. Other idea was to get a VPN with static IP at e.g. NordVPN. Then buy a VPN-enabled router and set it up with the VPN and static IP. I also have a cellular phone number so I would need to transfer it to cloud calling at e.g. Nextiva. What is the best way to do it? Which providers should I use to get the highest possible service experience and speeds (Europe -> US)? I appreciate any help. [link] [comments]  |

| Ethernet between two buildings Posted: 26 Sep 2018 11:15 AM PDT I have an NVR that needs cameras on 2 seperate buildings, 1 building has the NVR and router while the other building would just have a POE switch. I wanted to know if there are any solutions that allows me to connect both buildings without running an ethernet wire such as a point to point connection with an ethernet port for the POE switch.

| Posted: 26 Sep 2018 11:11 AM PDT Total Noob here but I am confused. I thought RG6 coax cable had maximum transmission speeds of 100Mbps so how are they capable of bringing 1Gbps speeds to a cable modem like my current ISP (Cox) is offering. I currently have the 300Mbps package but just upgraded to the Gigabit service and bought a new Arris Surfboard SB8200 DOCSIS 3.1 modem and an Asus GT-AC5300 tri-band router. I'm curious to see what speeds I get tomorrow since I have been jumping around the web and reading nothing but stories about how no one ever seems to get close to the 1000 downstream speeds. I also have some fancy (overkill) CAT7 RJ45 Ethernet cables as well just to be safe. Other than that I should be good I hope. I have a custom build PC that is top of the line so I think it should be capable of handling those speeds. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Should I Upgrade My Home Wiring to Cat 6a? Posted: 26 Sep 2018 10:54 AM PDT Hello, I have home wiring set up with CAT 5 (which was modern in 2006 and cannot be replaced without tearing up walls) but was wondering if I should upgrade all the wires coming out of wall (to devices) to Cat 6a? In looking at tables online, it appears that this might be a moot point as 5 only has a bandwidth of 350 MHz (6a offers up to 500 MHz). I also have gigabit switches at several spots throughout the house to expand the amount of devices at each termination. Each of those is Cat 5 wires as well. Thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2018 10:27 AM PDT Hi All, A few days ago I was looking for some guides to get started using NGINX for reverse proxy and here's what I've done so far:
My config file as it stands right now: Errors when using the nginx -s reload command: and Notes:
Does anything jump out as totally wrong? Can someone double check me on how the path to the .Key and .CRT files are supposed to be set? Most of the guides refer to the Linux format of using forward slashes and no drive letter. Edit1: Ok, I changed the user under which the service was to start to my User, and restarted the Service. Then I used the nginx -s reload command with no errors. But it still doesn't work. Edit2: Ok, I suspected that something wasn't allowing Port 80 to get forwarded correctly and created a new rule in my windows firewall to allow Port 80 inbound. Now when I try to access the sites I configured, I get a 404 page. BUT IT'S AN NGINX 404 PAGE! Baby Steps. Edit3: So, the config is actually working, but some of my servers don't like the subdirectory names or something. Emby is the only one that currently works. [link] [comments]  |
| Using pingplotter to discover internet speed problems in LAN or WAN Posted: 26 Sep 2018 06:20 AM PDT Hello, I am trying to solve an internet speed issue and have the demo version of pingplotter but as I'm a LAN/WAN village idiot, I'm not sure as to how to interpret the results. Case history: I am on a cable internet service, the service is 1Gigabit the cable comes from an underground tap in my front yard to the home then directly into a Hitron CODA 4582 modem, then CAT6 ethernet to my laptop. When I do a speedtest as provided by my ISP or Ookla I get less than 200 mbps download and 35 mbps upload, often these speeds will fall below 80 mbps and again I am on a 1 Gig service. I have now gone through 5 exchanges of the cable/modem with the ISP. All speed tests are direct Ethernet connections. The ISP has twice now sent techs to the home and they are sure the signal from the tap/spigot is good and all connections within the home are correct. The ISP is elevating this problem to what they say is maintenance, however I want to try to figure out if the problem can be proven to be downstream somewhere.
a. My modem 192.168.0.1 i. https://share.pingplotter.com/iEQFyVEopKs b. The first node outside of the home at what I believe to be my ISP's neighborhood switching facility, 99.245.224.1 i. https://share.pingplotter.com/Zf5xCnWJz8a c. Google at www.google.com, ipv4 google, ipv6 google i. https://share.pingplotter.com/cvfmTztrxFw ii. https://share.pingplotter.com/fGmrZLboGpW iii. https://share.pingplotter.com/ERRDe5w3ve5 d. Pingplotter.com i. https://share.pingplotter.com/TJbAxghD8mf e. Bing.com i. https://share.pingplotter.com/Eimdi1iBiHp So my problem is I suppose do these plots show that there is a problem with my internet connection and if so can I narrow down where the problem could be? Any help in this would be appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| New router draining device batteries (phone, tab, laptop!) Posted: 26 Sep 2018 09:50 AM PDT My ISP just upgraded me to a new Nokia router G-140W-C . Ever since, all devices (phones, tabs, laptops) in the house have been draining battery at a ridiculously high rate. I got the router replaced with a new one (same make and model) and the problem still remains. This is a n00b question, but what (config?) may be causing this? The network is running on a 2.4GHz / 40MHz on 820.11b/g/n mode, with auto channel selection. 5GHz is disabled. Transmission power is 251mW. There aren't any more configs that I see on the wireless section, help please! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 26 Sep 2018 09:13 AM PDT So I am currently using a ac1900 usb wifi adapter on my pc and getting quite slow speeds. I can only connect to the 2.4 GHz network (the 5 GHz keeps reconnecting and disconnecting, probably because it's too far away from the router). Was just wondering if making a secondary router as a wifi adapter would be a better option.And if yes, would I get better speeds if the secondary router was used as an adapter or a wifi extender? Or would a mesh system be a better choice than all the above? I'm also open to any other symptoms you think may have occurred and solutions you have for them. [link] [comments]  |
