    Enabling link aggregation with Ubiquiti Edgeswitch

    I'm trying to create link aggregation to the switch to double the bandwidth as I have a lot of the house hardwired, not specifically for the nodes. Is it because the nodes are hardwired its not working?

    I have an XT9 acting as my mesh router with two XT6 nodes hardwired. It all feeds through a Ubiquiti Edgeswitch lite 24 port switch. I'm trying to enable link aggregation with my XT9 and its not working. On the switch interface I just click the two ports, click aggregate and confirm a LAG. It...

    Advice on home network installation

    Thanks for all the replies, there’s a lot of really useful info and stuff for me to go and google. Sorry for the late response, I’ve been crazy at work but a week off now!

    Advice on home network installation

    The wiring in our house is 90 years old so while we’re having some building work done in the summer we were thinking of future proofing our home network with some hard wired connections. I’m intending to have a lan point in each bedroom and reception rooms. I’m in the Apple ecosystem so was...

    Which synology features can be accessed remotely?

    The free app ds audio lets you stream music too. For your pictures wouldn't it be better to use something like Dropbox?

    Synology DS213Air vs DS213 wifi setup

    Buy the ds213 and a good pair of home plugs to connect it to your router. Will be faster, more stable and won't bog down your wireless connection.

    Synology 213 and Media Streaming Devices.

    I have a similar setup to you, an rt-ac66u router and an older synology NAS. The free synology apps let you download straight to the NAS, rename the files and move them to whatever folder you want (eg music to your music folder, films to films folder etc) You can listen to your music or watch...

    2013 generation of Synology NASes

    I have the ds209 and the new update is going to be the last my unit will take. My dad is in america soon so might give him a shopping list with a new one on.. The ds 213 is the same CPU and ram as the 212+ so I would look out for a reduced older model.

    Thanks, I need to setup static ip for my NAS, boxee and PC because of shares I have setup and using some apps. Is there any standard things you should change when setting up a router? I'm happy about gigabit ports, I don't have to use my switch anymore!
