    DAP-2553 and GS110TP over POE

    Hi, I am in the market to buy these two items for my LAN. After reading the reviews, I think they matches what I need (and they have the nice looking I like). My only concern, as I am a newbie on POE, is if the POE of these two are compatible. Both of them are compatible with 802.3af which...

    Anyone know about Cisco Valet Plus Router?

    A small town in Ohio. Went to check the boxes again yesterday. The Valet is the M10 and the ValetPlus is the M20. However, nothing tells the difference between both except for the $50 on price tag and these model numbers.

    Wired Giganet performace problem and discussion related to onboard audio

    I am not sure if I am right but I am thinking about this issue may due to the limited IRQ resources of a computer? I think there is no way for the computer to consume 800MB/s to play mp3s.
