    PPC MoCA 5-Port Active Return Splitter PPC-5M-U/U?

    I have one and it works great! I have the signal split to 4 different rooms. No signal loss. just as importantly it made OTA reception stable. With normal quality MOCA splitter the OTA attenuation was too much and we had signal problems. This fixed that and we have solid OTA reception. It is...

    Choosing between MoCa and OTA tv?

    I have MOCA with OTA setup. I use the same coaxial line for both. In each room, I use a 2 way splitter where it comes out of the wall. One split goes to the TV, the other to the MOCA adapter. Both OTA and internet work fine with no problems.

    At wits end with my network

    You need port forwarding for plex only if you want to access plex from outside your home. Plex settings will identify the port used. You then need to set up port forwarding on that port to your plex server

    I hope you realize the Cisco 2950 is a 10 / 100 switch and not gigabyte

    Replacement advice for GS-108Tv2

    SG200 are layer 2 only. If you need ip routing, SG300 are layer 3. Big cost difference between the two series.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.33 Beta 3 available

    RT-N66R Had to revert back to beta1. 2.4Ghz was just inconsistent. Link rate would constantly vary usually staying at a low link rate (5.5 or 6.5). Family was complaining of "not working" WiFi. One other thing I noticed with beta 3 was that the web GUI was very sluggish. Didn't notice...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.33 Beta 3 available

    RT-N66R in AP mode observations: 1) slow link rate in 2.4Ghz band. 5 Mbps with default settings. Changing tx power from 800 to 100 - no change. However, changing channel bandwidth to 20MHz resulted in link rate increasing to 52 Mbps. 2) Stealth mode is not fully stealth. The LEDs for...

    Help needed - dhcp server in AP mode

    Got it working. :) Turns out it was not the typo that was the problem. It appears dnsmasq does not automatically start on bootup. Thus doing a restart command did nothing. Just starting dmsmasq failed as there is no dnsmasq.conf file. I did /sbin/dnsmasq --help to see different startup...

    Help needed - dhcp server in AP mode

    Thank you, but I'm still doing something wrong. Dnsmasq does not run. I can telnet "service restart-dnsmasq" and the response is "done". However ps does not show dnsmasq running and if I run "killall dnsmasq" the message is "killall: dnsmasq: no process killed" Files are...

    start up script ?

    I find it much easier to create files in telnet using echo command. I will create it in notepad and then "cut and paste" into telnet window. Example below is startup script I created. Everything between ' and ' is put into the file with the first echo creating the file and each additional...
