    Router or Network issue?

    Can we control the signal strength of TP Link Router?

    I think the short answer is... NO. The power regulations are built into the wireless chipset the manufacturer uses... I believe there was some government regulations a while back saying you could possibly modify other parts of the router (such as adding custom firmware, and changing some...

    Router or Network issue?

    Hello, I changed routers recently, and am now using a Linksys Velop 2 node mesh network. Everything appears working, except I am no longer able to see any of my network pcs in the Network folder on Win 10. Prior with my old router, I could see my desktop pc, and my nas from my laptop which I...

    Netgear WNR2000v5

    Agreed that this router is very old. I had it sitting in a closet, and was cleaning up and thought I would play with it for a bit. I've tried to update the firmware more times that I'd like to admit - and it has never worked. I followed some instructions from Internet Man on Github about...

    Netgear WNR2000v5

    A lot of the info on git hub went right over my head.... I did download tftp2 and multiple firmwares and followed the instructions and a you tube vid showing how to change the IPV4 settings of my network adapter, and then flash the f/w by holding the reset and powering up the router... it...

    Netgear WNR2000v5

    Thank you for your reply, I thought it might have some custom firmware on it due to the 172 address, but wasn't sure where to look. I am not familiar with running/installing third party firmware such as OpenWRT, but I have heard good things. Do you have any more info or instructions on how to...

    How to Record IP Cameras

    This is still looking VERY tricky.... I've armed my camera, and in the "email notification" area I've inserted all relevant info including the SMTP server (used google and yahoo) and set the port and yet it does not send a notification. I'm still looking at the Samba section....

    Netgear WNR2000v5

    Hello all, I've been given a Netgear router and would like to repurpose it. The router is the WNR2000v5. Now here are the details, this router is not a retail version, it was previously used with the cable companies home monitoring service. When defaulting the router, the login is some weird...

    Can't figure out my wireless problems.

    All of Rogers modems as of the last 4 years or so ARE modem and routers all in one. The 250mbs plan is only associated with either a CGN3 modem/router or the CODA modem/router.

    How to Record IP Cameras

    That is my device. I have seen the email alert function in the menu, which asks for an email address etc... but have NEVER gotten it to work! I've set up all the required info, but it never emailed anything.... I don't know much about FTP servers so I will have to look into that more closely...

    Can't figure out my wireless problems.

    I have the same router - Linksys EA9200 set up as an access point in my basement. I've got a hard wire from my Rogers modem to my electrical panel, and into an 8 port gigabit switch. From that switch, 1 Ethernet line goes out to my EA9200. I have multiple devices connected to my Linksys, and...

    How to Record IP Cameras

    Thank you for your reply. How would I know if the camera supports recording to a network share - I don't even know what that is! The camera I'm using is an iCamera 2 made by Sercomm. There isn't much info about it on the web, but its the same camera that Xfinity uses I believe, as well as...

    How to Record IP Cameras

    Hello all, sorry if this is posted in the wrong group. I have some basic IP cameras that I was able to install. These cameras are the same type provided by the cable company and used with their home monitoring service, however I do NOT have that service, I was able to manually set up the...

    Router & Acess Point(s) Setup

    In my setup, I was able to retain ALL my routers functions. Is there any harm in moving the wire from the LAN to the WAN port? Could this cause any damage to my router?
