    Finally have wired internet on my second floor - used MoCA

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 05:14 PM PDT

    I've been trying to find a way without doing a lot of wall damage to get ethernet to the second floor of my house for a few years. I was contemplating going on the outside of the house and behind siding, but really did not want to. Wife did not consent to me cutting into drywall on the inside, etc. Even if she did, I hate patching and painting.

    I bought two Motorola MoCA Adapters (2.0) at Microcenter today ($69 each - also picked up another Flex Mini to for my switch.) This set up pretty easily. My Unifi controller detected the access point right away. You have to find where the coax is in your house - we only had two tv's, so easy to find. Plug ethernet into the source adapter. Next adapter (bedroom in my case) gets plugged into coax. It now has Ethernet.

    I'm getting about the same speed as I would from a 1gigabit ethernet connection. Honestly, it's plenty for the devices up there (some streaming, phones, laptops - nothing major). I had a meshed access point - now it is connected. I have another meshed access point on the other end of the house - I'm going to run an ethernet cable through the attic to hook it up next.

    Not sure why, but I always equated the Moca devices as "powerline adapters". I had poor experiences with those in the past. So far, this is working out better than I was hoping for. (Stumbled across a YouTube video the other day talking about these and thought I'd try it out).

    I bought At&T WiFi and they gave me a router last week. Days later, I experienced WiFi issues. Even though the router is about 20 feet from my tv/ps4.

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 04:10 PM PDT

    Are all routers equal? Or are some used/lower quality??

    Is the problem the 1 wall/door separating the WiFi from my tv? Or should I call At&T and tell them to give me a new router

    Additional details: -I live in an appartment (there are like 8 other WiFi's in my settings)

    • I have the 60$ plan (medium) can stand like 6-8 decides, rn I'm using about 5

    We moved into our new apartment and our ISP sent us a self install kit we can’t set up because our coax splitter is not set up

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 10:19 AM PDT

    Basically the modem is connected to the coax outlet on the wall but the splitter itself isn't set up since we just moved in. A technician won't be able to come in time for us to work from home so I'm trying to set this thing up. Issue is there is nothing connected in the IN port and I'm not sure if I need to connect anything else to the OUT port of the splitter. There are 4 cables in the panel and I'm not sure which ones go where and which ones I do need to connect and which I don't need to connect. pic of cables and splitter

    Powerline Adapters - Keep powered constantly?

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 06:43 AM PDT

    Sorry, this will be very basic, but I've searched and nothing has appeared close.

    I have a TP Link powerline adapter connection from the downstairs router to the upstarts office via home sockets.

    I only need the Ethernet connection (I don't use WiFi from the extender) during office hours. After this my laptop gets turned off til the next working day.

    Are powerline adapters built to just stayed switched on constantly, or should I / is there an advantage to, turning them off at the end of the day?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Switched to Fiber Internet. WiFi / Additional SSID / Access Point issues.

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 04:47 PM PDT

    Hello,

    I recently switched from cable internet to fiber internet. During the install, the technician provided a Zyxel router (model EMG3425-Q10A). Everything was plug and play - I setup separate SSIDs for 2.4Ghz (e.g. my24SSDI) and 5Ghz (e.g. my50SSID) and we have been getting the advertised speeds especially for devices connected via ethernet to the Zyxel router.

    Today, I decided to log in to the Zyxel router using the browser to look for additional features it may offer. I noticed it seems to allow defining additional SSIDs. However, after adding a new SSID (e.g. my_new24SSID), I noticed none of my devices could connect to WiFi any longer.

    In other words, once I added "my_new24SSID", none of my WiFi devices could get an I.P. address via "my24SSID" or "my50SSID" or "my_new24SSID".

    As soon as I turned off "my_new24SSID", everything started working as expected.

    Other things I tried:

    1. I switched an older Asus router I have lying around from router to "Access Point" mode and enabled 2.4Ghz WiFi on it. I connected LAN port on this Access Point directly to an open LAN port on the Zyxel router. Same issue.

    I also noticed that in the "Maintenance" tab, under "Sys OP Mode" there is are two radio buttons for "Router Mode" as well as "Access Point" mode. "Router Mode" is selected but I am not able to change to "Access Point" mode.

    Turning off the built-in firewall (for testing purpose only) on the Zyxel router did not help any either.

    Hoping someone can provide some input on what might be going on. Is it possible that the Zyxel router might have a firmware customized for the ISP that might be preventing these additional features (adding extra SSIDs, switching to Access Point mode, etc.)?

    Thanks much in advance,

    -Topper

    Setting up router in closet?

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 05:23 PM PDT

    I'm renovating a house I just bought and starting to map out my setup. I have a fios connection which I can run into a closet that I was thinking of using as my sort of home base.
    I can mount a switch in the closet to hardwire a few items (for now 2 Apple TV's) and anything else that may come up down the road.
    My house is just big enough that I'll need an extender or 2nd router. Would it be a bad idea to have one router in the closet connected directly to the Fios? I can then either have an extender elsewhere in the house or hardwire another router. I'm using the Eero pro 6. The house is 2,200 square feet but it's mostly one story (with one bedroom upstairs). My thinking on the closet is it's close to where the fios line comes into the house so will be easy to setup. There isn't currently an ideal place to setup a router on that side of the house (covers kitchen, dining room, laundry and bathroom) other than this closet or maybe mounting on the wall.

    New build PoE switch question - 2x 24 port or one 48 port?

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 05:17 PM PDT

    Clarifying: 1x PoE 24 port 1x managed 24 port vs 1x 48 PoE port switch.

    I have about 10 PoE devices (unifi cameras and ap's). I know the common consensus is 1 switch for best connectivity, but i will be using 10 gb SFP to connect them and the ports are only going to be gigabit and wondering if there's some wisdom to keep systems somewhat redundant and clean (when they eventually die I won't have to replace a 48 port system) plus I don't/won't need the higher power capabilities but I'm sure the fan curves wouldn't be an issue if I went 48 port.

    Further info if it matters: thinking tp omada for now, because availability, management, and pricing. Would prefer all in one management (omada or unifi) and aware of unifi security issues, but didn't think I could beat the price/performance of wifi 6 lite for my situation so here we are.

    I'm very open to being corrected if my setup/thoughts aren't correct. Thanks!

    Is there any WiFi that will get me close to 500/500 shows in a single story 1500sqft home?

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 04:32 PM PDT

    I'm well aware that WiFi is not going to get me the fastest speeds, but if I'm going to pay for 500/500 internet, I at least want something close to it. My home isn't big, it's single story, and honestly most of my time spent online is within 100 feet of my WiFi. Is there any WiFi that would come close to full speed for me?

    Does anyone know any cheap mesh systems?

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 03:59 PM PDT

    Hello, just to start off, I know very little about networking. I'm just looking for a mesh wifi system to replace the dog water google nest system I have currently. One of the nest nodes died and I have had enough headaches because of it. If there are any other systems, preferably under 250 dollars please let me know. I sadly can't run an ethernet cable to the other point so a backhaul is out of the question.

    Nighthawk X6S - Moved to new apartment - No internet?

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 10:57 AM PDT

    Just moved to a new apartment - modem works just fine, can browse the web just fine when plugged in directly to modem. When I plug my router in however, it doesn't detect any internet.

    I didn't change any config during the move, so I have it set up identically to what I was before. I have done a reset, swapped cables, called Comcast to confirm modem works with no luck. The only hint I have is that it seems like the router has no DHCP info pulled from Comcast under the advanced tab.

    I'm at my wits end, any suggestions? The router worked just fine when it was back at the other place.

    How to get router to release and reassign DHCP addresses?

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 05:25 PM PDT

    I am running DD-WRT on my router, it has DHCP enabled. What would be the best way to get the router to release all DHCP IP addresses so I can set the Start IP Address to something like 192.168.1.100 so I can reserve all the sub .100 address for static addresses. Right now there are a bunch of wireless clients using some of those sub .100 address.

    Maybe restarting the router would do it, but maybe there is some "release all DHCP" button/command that would be cleaner, and so that is why I am asking.

    Thanks!

    VLAN in Windows 10

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 11:12 AM PDT

    In my network I have a few Windows 10 pro desktop machines using virtualbox software (running Win 7 vm' s). Now i am being told to segregate the Win 10 (host) and Win 7 traffic (by Security Auditor) in the next few months. My understanding is Hyper-V offers better support for virtual machine vlan's.

    I just need to clear my head before i start this project. I should be ok to convert the virtualbox vm's to work with hyper-v. Regarding the network part can you correct me on the below

    1. The switch port connecting to the Win 10 host must be a trunk port ( to carry Win 10 vlan traffic and Win 7 vlan traffic)
    2. The uplink port of the switch connecting to the switch where all servers are connected should be a trunk port.

    How to connect to home network behind CG-NAT

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 08:34 PM PDT

    I would like to connect to my home network, so I thought to set up a VPN server on my QNAP NAS. However, my ISP is using Carrier Grade NAT, so I cannot open the required ports.

    After reading many posts, I'm unsure what the best approach is. I've read many solutions that essentially open a tunnel to a remote server, e.g. this port from 6 years ago. Or, set up a VPN server on the cloud, and a VPN client on my home network, and set up a site-to-site connection. Both seem pretty complicated to me to be honest.

    Also someone else recommended SoftEther VPN, which does NOT require a server online. This seems like a good approach, but I'm not sure how well it's maintained as there was only 1 release in the last year or so.

    Or, LogmeIn offers a VPN SAAS, but it's quite expensive.

    I also saw PiTunnel and Local.host , but they only seem to support TCP connections, not UDP.

    Too many options. I just want an easy to maintain, secure solution.

    I've got a Raspberry Pi and a QNAP I can use to configure the required software. Any help is appreciated.

    I have 3 Ethernet outlets in my house, 2 upstairs and 1 downstairs. The 2 upstairs work just fine while the 1 downstairs doesn't. On my patch panel #5 and #10 are the working ones while #1 doesn't get connection. I've moved cables directly from #5 and #10 to #1 with no success. I'll attach pictures of my patch panel and the wall outlet. Wall outlet is wired as Top row green, green/white, brown/white, brown Bottom orange white, orange, blue, blue/white

    DHCP reservation - inside or outside range?

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 08:12 PM PDT

    Which are you supposed to do? If my router assigns from 2 to 254 (is this a excessively large range?) and I want a static IP assigned via a dhcp reservation is it best practice to assign within the 254 or outside of it?

    Why does a technician need to come to my apartment to install wifi?

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 06:57 PM PDT

    I'm in chicago and trying to get RCN wifi service in my apartment. I have a modem (arris SB6190) and have a router (netgear n600). I assumed that all I would need to do is connect the coax cable to my modem, connect the modem to my router, pay for my service, and then call to activate it. I tried to pay for the service and had to make an installation appointment…. ??? what would they be doing at that appointment? I thought bringing my own equipment would avoid that?

    If this isn't the right sub just let me know I'm sorry, just tryna find someone who can help me understand this. Thanks.

    Internet disconnects for 1-2 seconds ? (wifi)

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 01:33 AM PDT

    https://imgur.com/a/GSechMN

    Tested on multiple devices. Same thing.

    Latest firmware.

    Disconnects my games / work / whatever im doing, its infuriating. Started a month or two ago. Could it be a bad router? My router is quite old to be honest.

    This is my router: https://www.tp-link.com/ca/home-networking/wifi-router/archer-c7/

    Tested with ONLY 5ghz working (its dual band), but issue did persist.

    Tested on 2.4ghz same issue, multiple devices.

    Tested LITERALLY on the side of the router, same issue.

    Factory reset but issue persists.

    Next steps: Test wired on a laptop. Will post updates, thanks for the help.

    Port forwarding help

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 06:27 AM PDT

    Hey guys 1st time here, this feels like best place to ask for help regarding this subject...gonna divide it as best as I can to make it simple !

    Been following a guide on how to forward since I don't know much about it and after I'm done with all ports I tried testing one (https://canyouseeme.org/) but I'm getting " Error: I could not see your service on 94.***.**.*\* on port (27050)Reason: Connection refused" !

    .........................................

    So here's the game ports I tried forwarding (TCP Ports: 27014-27050 / UDP Ports: 4380,27000-27031,27036), and this is what my NAT/PAT page looks like, please let me know if you feel like I've entered them wrongly :-

    Application int/port ext/port protocol device

    L4D2 27014 27014 TCP DESKTOP-****

    L4D2 TCP 27050 27050 TCP DESKTOP-****

    L4D2 UDP 4380 4380 UDP DESKTOP-****

    L4D2 UDP-2 27000 27000 UDP DESKTOP-****

    L4D2 UDP-3 27036 27036 UDP DESKTOP-****

    L4D2 UDP-4 27031 27031 UDP DESKTOP-****

    ........................................

    Things to note :-

    1. I did book a static IP address to my PC on my router's DHCP browser page not through PC itself, you basically choose your desktop device and input it's MAC address and assign a new IP similar to the original but change last digit right ?
    2. I am using a wifi extender but from what I've read you don't need to mess with DMZ settings since it's simply a signal amplifier so I didn't !
    3. Did not do anything in Firewall settings cuz from my understanding it's not necessary.....no ?
    4. I did reboot PC and reset both router and wifi extender after I was done

    P.S : On my NAT/PAT page there's a warning "make sure you have not filtered these ports in the firewall"......not sure If this relates to note #3 !?!?

    Appreciate any help guys :)

    Looking for Cheap, small PoE switch that follows 802.1Q standards

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 12:15 PM PDT

    Hi I recently bought a PoE switch that works great but found out that tagging VLANs on it is extremely hit and miss and officially doesn't support it. If you guys/ gals have any recommendations on decent cheap PoE switches that do VLANs well I'd love to know. I only need a good 4 port switch with relatively minimum power requirements. I'd also be fine using PoE injectors as long as they work with VLANs as well.

    Upgraded router, upload to download speed ratio much lower on wifi than with older router.

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 02:22 PM PDT

    I recently upgraded my old router (TP-Link AC1300) to a new one (TP-Link AX3000).

    Took three samples with each of three devices from four locations and found the average in speed changes on wifi using google's speed test tool.

    The results are showing a 35-45% increase in download speed with the new router and a 28-72% decrease in upload speed compared to the old router while on wifi.

    As a control- I run ethernet directly to my laptop from the modem, through the old router, and through the new router, and get the same upload and download speed and ratio (roughly 1:1), ~900mbps up and down (essentially the advertised rate from Fios).

    A few things to consider - This is all on 5ghz band and I reused the old SSID.

    I implemented WPA2-PSK (AES) for security setting in new router. This was set to Auto on the old router. Not sure if this could be the cause.

    OFDMA is enabled by default on the new router. Not sure if this was an option on the old router.

    What could be causing such a large decrease in upload performance when download performance has improved so much?

    Ich sitzt da und denke nach über dich über mich und wieso ich dich liebte. Ich sagt von Anfang an bleib weg , geh heim spar dein Geld und Kümmere dich um dein Kind. Und das ich nichts für dich Empfind. Du warst so stur jeden Tag bist du zu mir gekommen immer dabei dein Kind. Ich war müde nach 7 Jahre Beziehung Ich kann nicht Sorgen für die kleine und dich sagte ich. das interessierte dich nicht da hätt ich es wissen müssen es geht weder um Maria noch um mich es ging immer nur um dich. Doch ich würde lügen wenn ich sagen würde das mir deine nähe nicht gut tat DU warst so ruhig ich hatte gefühle hast mich runter gebracht ich konnte neben dir ohne Mühe schlafen und ja ich liebte den Blick deine Augen er drang tief bis in meine Seele darin sah ich den Glaube an unsere liebe du hast eindruck hinterlassen ichte du bist Grad was nicht wirklich warst und wer seine loyalitätverliert ist nichts mehr Wert. Ich war zu schwach ich hätte es machen sollen wie alle anderen sie ließen dich alle fallen stehen .Aus den Augen aus dem Sinn mir Ruhe gönnen und mit voller Kraft von vorne beginnen. Doch ich bin wie ich bin ich lass niemand ihm Stich der mich um Hilfe bittet so blieb ich. Dafür HASS ich mich. Wir holten deine kleine zurück für dich fuhr ich dur die ganze Bundesrepublik Erst nach München dann zurück du nach Durmersheim ich dachte jetzt lass dich du hast alles im Griff ich hatte Arbeit zahlte teils deine mit. Aber eig wollt ich nicht. Ich war schön am Limit. Doch du rufst mich an während der Schicht und drohst mir mit Suizid ich machte mir Sorgen um dich das du dir dein Leben nimmst 2 mal hieltst du mich indem du mich erpresst wie hätt ich mir das erklärt wär dir was passiert. ohje es war schwer kräftezährend irgendwann schwörten wir bleiben uns bis in alle Ewigkeit treu. Doch die meisten versprechen kamen von dir du wirst alles für mich tun egal was passiert. Wieder glaubte ich dir ich arbeite doppelschichten wie ein Tier um dir ein Zuhause geben zu können in ihm steckte all die Liebe von mir das Kinderzimmer war das Reich von Maria. Das kostete mich soviel Schweiss Blut und Tränen ja ich war irgendwann erschöpft müde am Ende du hast nie arbeiten müssen und wir hatten immer alles.Dann ging es dir wieder gut und du hast getan was Menschen tun im Höhenflug dachtest du bist cool ne du warst ein nichts keiner wollte für dich einstehen geschweigeden bluten du warst eins tiefer wie ganz unten jetzt fangen die Geister in dein kopf wieder an zu spuken du wirst wieder dort landen aber dann kannst du nach einem Geilen Alibi Ficker suchen weil der lässt dich verbluten. Aber jetzt genieße das Leben zeig deine selbstachtung und neue freiheit das jeder mal in dich rein darf. DU hast mich dein Kind und dein Vater alles wofür wir 2 jahre kämpften verraten nur noch gelogen und betrogen hast mich noch mit Absicht verletzt und stelltest mich bloss mich nie was schlechtes Wollte tausend mal sagte ich bitte keiner von uns hat verdient verletzt zu werden wen was ist nur die wahreit sagen. Wieso bist den nich gleich gegangen und hast noch ja gesagt zu meinem heiratsantrag entweder Bist krank oder liebst es Familien zu begraben wieviel menschen wegen dein lügen leben mit qualen oder narben tragen. Du fandest daran noch Gefallen anderen zu schaden. In meinem Leben trag ich dich als Schande. reisst dein igenes Kind aus allen lagen die für sie besonders waren hast gehört was sie sagte ich will wieder mein zimmer bei Steven haben .Mutter darf mann zu dir nicht sagen. Du hast sie nur ausgetragen. So ich bin froh das Gott dich aus meinem Leben nahm und damit auch alles schlechte jede Sucht alle Qualen . Ich war verletzt klar weil du nie ehrlich warst mach therapie es ist dein verstand ohje du bist des Teufels recht hand ich hatte mit alkem recht gehabt es schmerzte nicht weil du mich nicht geliebt hast sondern mein Herz trauert um die Person die du nie Warst. Und heute ist alles klar die ganzen Briefe von deiner Familie, alles wahr. Und das schlimme ich liebte nie dich Ich liebte einen Menschen den es nie gab nichtmal als mein Vater starb hattest du den Anstand nach mir zu fragen der Mann der dir und deinem Kinder immer alles gab. Nicht du war es die mein Herz basass es gehörte einer Fatamorgana die ich aus liebe sah. Du hast mich verlassen während ich am ende war dir schon alles gab und obwohl du wusstest wie kran mein vater war warst du nicht da ich musste ansehen wie ihn der krebs zefrass bis er starb. Sag mir warst du einmal für mich da? Ach du bist mit deinem Leben bestraft. Wie kannst du überhaupt noch den anblick in den spiegel ertragen. Ich hab dich ignoriert weil du mir mal wichtig warst als meine Familie geld zusammen lag um es jungs aus hamburg zu zahlen ja so ist das bei Ner familie die zusammenhält Da kommen die nachts aus dem bett hohlen dich runter zu boden.naja ich habs verboten aber jetzt schau selbst wie du da wieder raus kommst.
