Prevent Redirect to router.asus.com Posted: 29 Jan 2019 04:19 PM PST I've got 3 asus routers on my home network: 192.168.1. [1,2,3] If I go to 192.168.1. [2 or 3] it takes me to the login page for that router, but then when I click "login" it sends me to "router.asus.com" which is linked to 192.168.1.1. I'm effectively locked out of the two other routers at the moment due to this stupid redirect. Can anyone tell me how I can get rid of the router.asus.com DNS entry? I only want to use IP address [link] [comments] |
Which type of tradesman installs network cabling in a home? Posted: 29 Jan 2019 04:33 PM PST Hello, Noob seeks advice: I would like to hire someone to wire my home so that I have ethernet running throughout. Which trade performs this type of install? Electrian? Networking Specialist? What do I google? What are some ballpark figures for how much this costs? Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 29 Jan 2019 12:51 PM PST A little context, I have PC in the basement that I'm using as a server and is generally underutilized. I'd like to make good use of it as a home PC in other parts of the home while leaving the hardware there in the basement. So is it possible, cheap, and easy to purchase a monitor, mouse, and keyboard that will use WiFi to stream between them and this PC? I know that I could always do a share-screen option from a laptop or something, but I suppose I'm wondering if there are WiFi options that make it more economical than buying a new laptop for this? If so, then what do you recommend? Or are we not there yet in terms of that kind of market? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 29 Jan 2019 02:48 PM PST I am attempting to get this website finished but I noticed when updating the site, the site was not changing. I thought it could be a hosting problem but then noticed that my phone when not connected to the wifi picks it up fine with the latest upload! Please help, I've tried reseting my router/modem still nothing! Cant seem to find anything online either. Any advice would be amazing... [link] [comments] |
Moving to Unify Equipment with Gigabit - USG question Posted: 29 Jan 2019 02:26 PM PST Hi all, question about moving over to Unify equipment after having my current equipment "fail" on me. (It is no longer managing anywhere near the speeds it was for no apparent reason, and I want to move transfer anyways so not going to waste hours troubleshooting) I understand that the USG can more or less support gigabit speeds - assuming I don't use any IPS/IDS. Is there any reason for me to get the USG at all though if I want these features or should I just make an atom build to host the unify dashboard? Alternatively, are the switches layer3 capable of handling DHCP [and pointing to an alternative DNS] or would I need to put that on my ISP issued modem/router until I'm able to build a server to handle the DHCP/DNS requests? Also, if I get the USG is there any particular reason to get a unify switch if I already have smart-PoE switches that can handle my required VLANS, is there anything particularly special about the unify integration on them that is worth dropping another 100$ for 1 for a couple APs [link] [comments] |
WiFi Speed in Settings Not Matching Actual Speed Posted: 29 Jan 2019 05:32 PM PST So the speed I should be getting and the one reflected in Network settings is 50Mbps. On Steam, however, I am getting 6Mbps. Why is this happening? Also I did check and it is indeed Mb not MB [link] [comments] |
unterminated cat5 in basement mystery Posted: 29 Jan 2019 07:40 AM PST I am second owner of a house, the house was wired with ethernet when it was built. In the basement by the switch, there are 2 unterminated cat5e cables that are labeled "Elec Panel". Both are blue. I cannot figure out where the other end of these cables are. I have circuit breakers in 2 unique locations: 1) 1 In the basement right next to the untermindated cables I speak of 2) 2 outside right next to each other on the external wall of the house. Right next to the circuit breakers outside, there are 2 cat5e cables, one blue, one yellow neither with a label on them... both unterminated. I was guessing the 2 wires in my basement were the same wires outside, so I terminated them but they obviously aren't the same wire (I used a tester that checks each 8 wires of the cable after you terminate them, I went 0/8 both times). Any ideas where the "Elec Panel" wires in my basement may have been routed? [link] [comments] |
Network design in old 3-story house Posted: 29 Jan 2019 04:54 PM PST Hi r/HomeNetworking, I'm living in an old three story house (with a basement) and I'd like to improve the WiFi coverage. We're currently only using the all-in-one modem/router/AP from our ISP to broadcast WiFi throughout the house from the first floor. There aren't any ethernet drops and running new cables would be very difficult. There isn't cable throughout the house either, so MoCa is off the table. What is the best solution here? Powerline extenders? Mesh? Ubiquiti LR AP? [link] [comments] |
Whats The Difference Between These TP Link Routers? Posted: 29 Jan 2019 04:30 PM PST Im shopping for a new router, it will only be used by 1 or 2 devices at a time, my phone and my gaming laptop which I plan to connect using ethernet. The router will be placed just on top of my desk where I spend most of my time at home. I have an ethernet cable running along my ceiling to connect my main Router ( Pon router that my ISP gave us) and my possible new router. While looking around the internet, (specifically Lazada, kind of the amazon of my country), I see three routers that I liked, the TP Link Archer C5, C6, and C1200. They all use AC1200. The C5 and the C6 both uses the same body. My internet plan is 75mbps up and down Here are the link to their page on TP-Link C5: https://www.tp-link.com/au/products/details/cat-9_Archer-C5.html C1200: https://www.tp-link.com/ph/products/details/cat-9_Archer-C1200.html C6: https://www.tp-link.com/ph/products/details/cat-9_Archer-C6.html [link] [comments] |
Posted: 29 Jan 2019 06:58 PM PST Hello fellas, I´ve got a situation that requires professional help: I want to monitor the traffic (&visited websites) going through our home network in real time by pretty much all devices connected to it. I read and tried quite a lot but nothing seems to work for me. I had a look at Wall Watcher which doesn´t support our router. Open DNS does not provide what we are looking for. Net Shark was pretty overwhelming for an unexperienced pleb like me. Syslog Watcher didn't show shit either. OK so my question is: Which programs/solution would you recommend? Is a proxy/DHCP server necessary? I have little to no IT knowledge so please be patient with a normie like me:( Thank you guys in advance, any help is much appreciated! [link] [comments] |
Do "Internet Boosting" applications work? Posted: 29 Jan 2019 06:56 PM PST So recently, like 95% of the community, I've been playing Fortnite a fuck-ton, so I've ditched CS:GO which was my previous main game. However, Fortnite is completely unplayable as I constantly get 200+ ping with at least 25-50% packet loss, this doesn't happen on CS or any of the other games I used to play as I've gone back and checked. I've already posted about that issue on this subreddit so I'm not going to extend on it here. I saw an ad for something called "WTFast" and it got me thinking if it would actually boost my connection, specifically my packet loss. So I read the reviews and people said that they went from 200-500ms to 50-60ms. This was quite surprising to me considering it seems like a complete fucking miracle. I've got no idea whether or not they would work considering it seems to good to be true, so would it work? [link] [comments] |
Internet/Voice Modem Under $100 Posted: 29 Jan 2019 03:07 PM PST How unlikely is it to find an Internet/Voice modem under $100? Edit: ISP is spectrum for both internet and voice and our internet speeds right now is 60Mbps down but don't want to limit myself. [link] [comments] |
Two router setup. Attached devices not discoverable between networks. Posted: 29 Jan 2019 06:31 PM PST I know this setup is not ideal but I'm forced to use it because I ran out of ethernet ports and am too cheap to buy a switch. I have R7000 as my primary on 192.168.2.x. and I've got asus rt-ac66 on 192.168.1.x both on 255.255.255.0 netmask. Asus is going wan to lan with firewall turned off. In my wan setup for asus, I have it set to static ip with nat enabled. My issue is, even though I can ping and access devices, my nas, printer, chromecast, etc...are not discoverable when I'm on the other network. Is there anyway to make this work? [link] [comments] |
Do I use an Inline Coupler for this or something else? Posted: 29 Jan 2019 06:21 PM PST My objective is to connect two 100ft(~30.5m) cat5e ethernet cables together with this monoprice inline coupler to make one 200ft cable because we already had two 100ft cables. Will this work and allow me to keep a 1gbps connection, or do I need something different for this to work? If it does work for this situation, is the monoprice inline coupler any good?

Is it worth upgrading cable modem? Posted: 29 Jan 2019 03:03 AM PST I am currently using a Motorola Surfboard SBG6580 DOCSIS 3.0 with Xfinity with speeds up to 60mbps download and was wondering if there are any benefits if I upgrade my modem to a ARRIS Surfboard SB8200 DOCSIS 3.1 Cable Modem?

Moved house and living room is in the twilight zone thanks to demonic wall of no signal. Posted: 29 Jan 2019 06:03 PM PST Hi there, I've recently moved in to a new flat with my girlfriend and I've got Virgin Media (UK ISP) VIVID350. Hardware wise it's the super hub 3 I believe. The living room receives precisely 0 WiFi from the superhub 3 from the 2.4GHz and 5GHz band, the superhub is located at the opposite end of the flat but every other room gets great signal so the living room is currently being sacrificed as if I connect the hub to the virgin port in the living room I get no signal anywhere else but the living room. Put my phone next to the superhub and played some audio through my wireless headphones and walked in to the living room and instantly as I entered audio cut off and signal was dropped so I believe the living room wall was built to survive a nuclear holocaust which is why I'm getting nothing in there. I'm looking at solutions and I think my best option will be a WiFi powerline extender? I was looking at other routers like the ASUS RT-AC68U router and put the (frankly woeful) superhub 3 in modem mode however I believe I'll still get nothing behind that wall (the wall juts out in front of the living room door so there isn't even a door to seep signal through). I was also looking at changing the frequency of the superhub in case that would help but I haven't downloaded WiFi analyser yet to have a nosey. The other powerline adapter I'm looking at is TP-Link TL-WPA7510KIT DUALBAND Gigabit AC750 I'm an absolute novice at this as I'm sure you can tell, I haven't looked at networking or network topology since high school over ten years ago. Any help or recommendations would be great. That wall though man I have no idea what it's made of, I fear it's not from this realm. [link] [comments] |
Verizon FIOS - MoCA, WiFi, etc. Posted: 29 Jan 2019 06:03 PM PST I've read through countless articles and I think I know the solutions, but I just want to make sure I'm not missing anything. I currently have Verizon FIOS TV & Gigabit connection in my house, with a purchased Quantum Gateway G1100 (bought about 15 months ago). My house has two floors and a basement, and I am not the original owner, so it is not hard-wired for Ethernet (just a maze of Coax cables). The ONT is on the main floor, with Ethernet going into the WAN port of the Gateway, as well as Coax run (and split) to the Gateway and main STB. Everything is being fed through a hole in the wall from the outside, where the Verizon box is being fed in from the street. My issues arise from the fact that I know that I'm paying for the Gigabit internet, but only one section of my house is really reaping the benefits of it - an Nvidia shield and two smart-home hubs. Everything else is on the Wi-Fi. I used to have my Xbox set up there, but due to the internal politics of my household, I have moved it down to the basement, which is also where a STB (with pre-existing Coax) and my home office is set up. The basement's wi-fi reception is good on the 2.4Ghz band, and the 5Ghz band has inconsistent connection. Obviously the performance of Xbox live suffers greatly from not receiving a wired connection, and I'm not getting my money's worth. As I previously mentioned, the home does not have ethernet cables pre-wired into different parts of the house, but it does have coax everywhere. In fact, there is an 8-way Switch on the opposite end of my house, and whoever initially wired the house ran the coax from the ONT around the house, partially underground to the Switch (I ran over it with my lawn-mower this past summer which is how I discovered this). My basement setup is also on the opposite side of the house from the ONT, so for me to run an ethernet cable, I'll probably have to follow the path already laid out, and then feed it down through the drop-ceiling. Because of this, running ethernet throughout the house, and specifically to the basement, is not a viable option at this time. I may look into it when it's warmer outside, but we have a kid on the way so I doubt there is going to be much time for that. So for the past few days I have been doing some light reading on solutions. My initial thought was going to be to purchase a mesh system for the house, in the hopes that it would improve the signal throughout the house, and prevent the 5Ghz band from dropping in the basement. This may be true, but I still probably would not be getting the best bang for my buck because I still will be limiting myself to Wi-Fi, and at best 300 Mbps speeds. I then started looking into the bonded MoCA adapters, and it seems to me this may be the best course of action to take to at least feed the basement using that and a gigabit switch (Xbox, STB, Smart TV, and home office), short of wiring the entire house. Can somebody please check my reasoning, and also confirm that I will only need one adapter, because the Gateway already serves as one on the main floor? I may look into improving my wireless router situation in the future, as the Gateway is fine, but we do still get some dropped connections, or slowdowns. I have 15-20 wireless devices running, such as laptops, smartphones, wireless speakers, nest thermostat, cameras, etc, most if not all running on the 2.4Ghz band. If I do decide to upgrade the wireless router function, I know I can keep the Gateway as the MoCA adapter for the main room, and turn off the Wi-fi function, but it's also true that I can buy a second MoCA adapter to replace it, right? And If I go that route, would it be better for me to get a very good router, like a Nighthawk, or is Mesh the better way to go to reach the other wireless devices that will never be hard-wired? Edit: minor wording changes for clarification [link] [comments] |
Posted: 29 Jan 2019 05:46 PM PST I am not that knowledgeable in networking and seem to have run into a problem trying to get my garage internet. So far everything works but occasionally i get slow speeds and sometimes lose connection all together. The way i have set my network up is . Modem getting signal from isp then goes directly to router(router is the primary source of wifi for the house) connected to the router is a 150ft outdoor rated ethernet cable going to garage and feeding a 5 port switch. The 5 port switch connects to pc and ps4 and wifi router for garage. So only 3 ports are used plus the 1 feed so 4 in total. When i run speed test on pc i lose connection on ps4 and lag out. Sometimes ps4 loses connection all together. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 29 Jan 2019 11:30 AM PST I'm looking to ditch the modem fee, and figured I'd buy a router/modem combo to save some trouble. I was looking into the NetGear n600, but the reviews are either really good, or fucking horrible and off-putting. The Arris is a little more expensive, but the reviews aren't as cringey. Curious if anyone has had experiences with these, and which they'd recommend. BTW, I have 100 mbps internet. [link] [comments] |
How can I improve my home network? Considering Google WIFI Posted: 29 Jan 2019 01:31 PM PST I live in a duplex penthouse (1st and 2nd floor), and my current setup is at follows : · FTTH 300MBPS that arrives into a Router-PON · Asus RT-AC87U that delivers WIFI through all the place You can check the floorplan here. After some months with this set-up I find the connection a bit unstable, particularly in the 2nd floor. To improve this, I planned to do the following : · Hard-wire with cat6 cable to 2 specific points (see future RJ-45 in blue on the floorplan) · Remove the Asus router, and add a google wifi puck instead . · Add two more google wifi pucks hardwired where the future RJ-45 would be. Does this make sense? Cost overall would be around 600$ (300$ google wifi and 300$ to hardwire through the house) I'm a bit confused about wifi mesh, and read that simple AP can do the trick, but I want to benefit from the seamless handover of wifi-signals from the different pucks, which with the router + AP's seems to be more trickier. I'm not afraid of making difficult configurations, but not an expert on networking either. Thanks ! [link] [comments] |
If my isp is blocking port forwarding is there a way to get around that? Posted: 29 Jan 2019 05:14 PM PST I have 4gasonline which goes thru T-Mobile towers. They told me that port forwarding is done through TMobile so they can't change ge anything. I just want to run my damn Minecraft server. :( [link] [comments] |
Posted: 29 Jan 2019 03:17 PM PST My router is in one room and i'm going to be running cat6 ethernet from that room up the wall, into the attic and down another wall. roughly 20ft away. is this connection simple enough to use? both will have coax also so i wanted the plate with both of them. I keep seeing keystone jacks but unsure if this is suitable to run for 300mb/20mb speeds (if that matters). Is it necessary to run raw wire or can it already be ready to plug in? https://www.amazon.com/Plate-Yomyrayhu-Female-Ethernet-Plated/dp/B07FPDXCWD/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_60_tr_t_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=KB1W36KQAFJEF54NN4CV [link] [comments] |
Network Engineer by Trade ... Struggling Posted: 29 Jan 2019 10:41 AM PST My home network, FortiGate from the Sky modem (double NAT) With 8 port Allied switch connected to it. Visualise this, walk in the front door, longish entrance hall going out in front, stairs going up in front of you, walk past stairs and immediately on the right under them is my demarc point from the street. Opposite side of the corridor from the network kit under the stairs is my office, approx 2.5m total distance from the switch, but it's the back of a converted garage so the wall is an external load bearing and the door way is lipped, as an external door would be, but it's carpeted etc, short of lifting the carpet and cabling under it, and without using homeplug adapters how am I getting a wire into this room?

Can I add a second router to extend wireless home network? If so, which would be the best router? Posted: 28 Jan 2019 08:10 PM PST I have a nighthawk home router that is great, but it doesn't do much for the back yard. I'd like to use wifi back there comfortably (streaming), so I've run a wire and would like to figure out if I can plug in a wall-mounted router to connect on the same network. Is this possible?

How do I: Create tunnel from phone to home? Posted: 29 Jan 2019 01:12 PM PST Hey guys. I don't yet have my server up but I just got all new unifi gear. Controller is currently running on my laptop. .ill be setting up a server to run pi hole, tir unifi controller and a few other things. I would like to be able to access my home file server, and do things like print to my home printer, no matter where I'm at in the world. Im assuming I'll need a VPN. But I don't know much about making them, and even less about how to connect my phone. (I'd also like to route all my family through my pi hole) ... could anyone give me the quick bullet point list of how to get this done? If you can just point me in the right direction I can google the exact steps surely. Thank you! [link] [comments] |
