    E4200 as an access point?

    ok, I kinda have access to the main router, since they have a username and password of admin,admin... So I can change in it a bit, so you would say I make the compound router address 192.168.1.1, then make the DHCP from .1.100-200? Then I change my E4200 address to DHCP? (the problem with this...

    E4200 as an access point?

    Hello all, I'm living in a compound and they offer free internet on their own router. I'm doing a small LAN between my machines (PC, Laptop, TVs, etc...) and to avoid sharing folders with other residents I've changed the ip address of my E4200 router and just made it an access point (or so I...

    URL To stream a Movie from NAS

    While all of these are valid options, I don't think they truly fulfill what I have in mind. What I want to do is make my own local website for local users, this website will have multiple links, one to Movies, one to TV shows, etc... but most importantly, one to PC Games. I know a lot of...

    New NAS build, so many questions!

    Bump~ I've done it and bought the LSI-9261-8i with BBU unit and thought I'd just store the HDDs in my HAF X since I have the place for it until I get my new NAS... I do still have some questions though if anyone in this forum is experienced enough. First of all, i'm planning to get a...

    New NAS build, so many questions!

    Hello all, I'm almost running out of space on my old 4TB 2bay NAS which I discovered later that it is a very low end one (in performance at least). And all my PC HDDs and external HDDs are also running out of space (so around 6+ TB of space) and I need to expand. I've been looking into...

    Windows Server for a Home network

    Thanks for your reply but I don't think that will affect me (disk drive pooling being gone or whatnot), I'll be using a BlueArc Titan high-performance NAS with over 40TB and raid 6 or 60, hot swappable of course, so if I want to increase the size (if I ever approach the 40TB) I can just add more...

    Best cabling configuration for a villa

    I looked everywhere for this transceiver in the picture and could only find 1Gb Ethernet ones and never was able to find a 10Gb one, can you show me a link to one that supports 10Gb? However it looks cheaper to just use a direct SFP+ cable instead of converting to RJ45 and and to SFP again...
