    Poe+ powered switch recommendations

    Hi guys, I am looking g to add a small switch to my network that will provide data to a PS4 and a tv, but powered via Poe+ in the room next door I have a Poe+ switch that is doing similar but only for a tv and sky box. I would like to take a Poe port from this and use it to power the mini...

    iOS 14 WIFi Privacy & WPA3

    Hi Guys, Noticed on my router multiple IP addresses for our iphones and after a bit of research, turns out a new setting of "WiFi privacy" had been enabled by default. This means that the iphone dishes out multiple MAC addresses so that the router dishes out an IP for each one (3) so that no...

    Any MikroTik RouterOS Gurus?

    Yea I did and we/I came to the conclusion that the particular website I was using for the test has some odd bugs. I was able to ping in and out from various addresses and all was working fine. I also used alternative test sites and they were coming back 100%. The real oddity was the fact that...

    Any MikroTik RouterOS Gurus?

    Hi Guys, For various reasons, i have had to reconfigure my Mikrotik 4011 from scratch. I have managed to get it all up and running from various posts i have made before, however, i am having IPV6 issues. For some reason, my firewall does not let ICMPv6 through, as when i use a test site it...

    UniFi Network Install Complete - Are there optimizations?

    Not that this is the slightest help but a couple of years ago i had the same issue with IOS where i would get up in the morning and it would have dropped wifi, even though it had good signal. Turned out my crappy internet connection would reboot externally overnight, and the phone would...

    Cisco WAP 571 Oddness.

    Hi guys, Really sorry for the delayed reply! Well, for some reason, it is all working fine again! When TV watching had finished, i left it overnight (for the TV box to auto-standy), next morning opened the app and it all now works flawlessly. Before that everything was plugged back into the...

    Cisco WAP 571 Oddness.

    Yeah it's more frustration than anything else! Must admit, i have been looking at the 581, but i'm not sure if i really want to stick with Cisco TBH. I have had the Unifi AP's in the past and they were 'ok'. If this doesn't get sorted i might give them another try with one of their HD models...

    Cisco WAP 571 Oddness.

    Well, as a slight update and to add to the weirdness. I plugged everything back into the ER, but then my wife went in and switched the box on to watch TV and it now works perfectly, and loads instantly every time. When she has finished i will put the box back into standby and see if it happens...

    Cisco WAP 571 Oddness.

    Ok that was what it sort of changed to, but even in that existing config was working ok (and that was with a dumb switch plugged into the main dumb switch) ER was just feeding two separate dumb switches and devices where plugged into those. I removed one switch and then plugged everything into...

    Cisco WAP 571 Oddness.

    Ok. the idea was to actually do away with the main dumb switch as i have shrunk the wired network, which then allowed me to plug in everything left into the ER direct, one of which feeding the external poe switch. But, having put it all back to how it was hasn't made any difference. weird.

    Cisco WAP 571 Oddness.

    Sorry don't follow what you mean? Main switch is Lynksys Lgs116P which then feeds the other switch for the camera & engenius. I even tried feeding the small switch from the ER direct but still the same

    Cisco WAP 571 Oddness.

    Ah ok, but these are dumb switches though? No, no spanning tree. The ER is providing dhcp to all devices. The only poe switch that is now left in the system is the external one that is powering the Engenius AP and a reolink poe security cam. I have just put the other dumb switch back and...

    Cisco WAP 571 Oddness.

    Well without looking i'm guessing bonjour is on as it is working, albeit VERY slowly! Nothing at all has changed recently, apart from I put the Mikrotik back and got that running and it was behaving exactly the same, so put the ER back and hence my suspicions of the 571's. It does also happen...

    Cisco WAP 571 Oddness.

    No, i was running a Mikrotik for a few months, but swapped the ER back in just after the new year. It has all been running fine and so i just don't understand why it has all of a sudden decided to cause problems. Just wondering if it could be a 'bonjour' issue on the AP?
