    QNAP’s Intros Budget-Friendly NAS With Auto-Tiering, PCIe Expansion and 10 GbE SFP+s

    I think I saw someone say this can be done with rsynch? I'm going to need to do this soon. I'll have to google what is it and how it works. There must be a way for units from various vendors to talk nicely to each other?

    Slow NAS speed

    Doubt he'll repost since this thread is 8 years old and the OP only has two posts. Ahhh wireless G...I'm still using two LinksysWRT 54GL's bridged to cover 4 floors of concrete construction in our school. They run for about six months straight before they need a reboot! My Asus needs a daily...

    QNAP TS-451+ memory upgrade options/strategy

    Thanks, I did that. I got 2x4GB ADATA sticks for around $65. For anyone coming across this later, I originally got a pair of regular voltage sticks. My Chinese is crappy, and they are overwhelmed by my presence, so often the important questions get missed. Here, I needed them to know these...

    Just spent $3000 on NAS what now?

    If you have too much money, you can PM me and I'll take your burdensome loot off your hands. But now I'm going to get you to spend more! I do the same thing you do, but you're missing one key piece. I also have a high quality plasma panel, and I feel driving it with an HTPC is a giant mistake. I...

    QNAP TS-451+ memory upgrade options/strategy

    Hi I just got a TS-451+ and it came with 2GB of memory. I went to the local Transcend shop and I can replicate the same stick to have 2x2GB RAM in the unit. I'm now in a quandry. Can I install only 2x2GB, rather than 2x4GB as blessed by QNAP? I can't find anyone stating if this is OK. I saw one...

    RT-AC88U

    My AC88U has been flaky for me. It is my second one as they swapped my first one for these same problems. 1. I like to shut down the network when we sleep, so I shut it and the ADSL (pppoe connected) modem at the power bar. When I turn on the power bar in the morning the modem comes on, the 88U...

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    I just installed this firmware. I was only able to use a 16 character password. Is there a way to allow for longer login passwords?

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    Thanks, is 75mw the max? I vaguely remember being able to got up to 200mw in my WRT54. I think that power level was scuppered by the FCC? I'm back to torrent problems, I think I'll try a clean install with this fork and hope that fixes things. The N66U used to handle the load. Is there any...

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    My torrenting problem seems to have been solved by simply enabling QOS (with no rules), but I've only had one day of light activity. I was able to peg my 60Mb dowload max for the session. That may not be germane to this fork however. My question is still, how does this fork allow for changing...

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    Hi I just updated to the latest Merlin and I now can't get a useful signal in my hard to reach place. On a much older Merlin FW I was able to add a few extra MW to get coverage there. You say in the description that this fork allows "Less of a lockdown on tweaking power levels". Does that mean I...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.55 is now available

    So, I think you are saying that there is no definitive guide?

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.55 is now available

    Hi I've searched for a [HOWTO] flash firmware, but can't seem to find one if there is one. Looking here: http://www.snbforums.com/threads/faq-nvram-and-factory-default-reset.22822/ I see a factory reset is necessary, but the language isn't clear on whether I flash first, and then reset, or...

    Torrenting...best: practices/FW version/tweaks

    So will the various solutions above be beneficial if I do torrenting on my HTPC? It happened again last night, the torrents slowed to 400kbs when they should have been maxing at 6Mbs from my private torrent site. When I rebooted just the N66U it jumped up to max. From what ryhzov says: "The...

    Torrenting...best: practices/FW version/tweaks

    WOW, I'm going to have to try to use some of the low hanging fruit there, and then learn some of the more complicated stuff, but I do have one question. For some of those scenarios is the torrenting being done on the router itself, or on a device downstream on the network somewhere?

    Torrenting...best: practices/FW version/tweaks

    Sorry, maybe this got missed, so I'm going to bump it. I can't be the only one with these questions. If there is a thread already about this, it didn't come up in search.
