    Table top access point

    Yeah, doing ceiling mounts are possible, just not something I'd consider unless I had to. I was curious if there were recommendations for APs to try that could address my needs without running new cabling.

    Table top access point

    Good call out. This is definitely doable, and I have the tools/cabling to do it, however I would think of this as a last resort option. It's messy work and really only addresses the second floor, not the first floor or basement. I'd rather have a standardized solution.

    Table top access point

    I'm looking for some recommendations for a table top access point. A little background. I've got a 2 story house with a finished basement; roughly 3800 sq ft. I've been using an Orbi RBR50 and 2x RBW30's for the past 6 months. Coverage/speed for the most part is good, for my 300/12 Mbps...

    QNAP 451+?

    BTW - looks like the 251+ and 451+ have been announced: https://www.qnap.com/i/useng/product/model.php?II=196 https://www.qnap.com/i/useng/product/model.php?II=195 It looks to actually use the same processor as the 453, but is obviously geared towards home users. I still feel good about my...

    QNAP 451+?

    NAS Ordered. I went with the 453 Pro and 4x 3TB WD Reds. Thanks for everyone's input!

    QNAP 451+?

    I think I'm leaning (now) towards the 463. Looks like there's mixed opinions of AMD vs Intel. Based on Passmark, it looks like the AMD does have an edge (which makes sense, given the higher TDP). http://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare.php?cmp[]=2291&cmp[]=2131 Any reason (updates, package...

    QNAP 451+?

    What's the processor difference between the J1900 (453 pro) and the G series AMD (463)? Also, thats the same processor in the 5 bay 563? Should an AMD processor be under considered?

    QNAP 451+?

    Here my intended usage, sorted by priority (roughly). Primary: Backup device (TimeMachine and Windows Backup - although I may use Crashplan on the clients. Having the data be available from anywhere (some directories) would be nice too). Off-site replication - I plan to pay for a CrashPlan sub...

    QNAP 451+?

    I'm currently looking at a 4 bay NAS. My current NAS is a 2TB MyBookLive. I'm looking to expand the features set and am mostly considering a QNAP 453 Pro (or the recently announced 453 mini). The 463 is also tempting, although I'm unsure about the AMD CPU. However, looking at B&H's site, I see...
