    Double Router Security?

    I installed a simple ping app on my tablet. When I have my table plugged into port 4 I can successfully ping the tablet's (192.168.0.106) default gateway (192.168.0.1 on port 4 of Linksys) as well as the Linksys itself on 10.0.0.X. but I CAN'T ping my PC on 10.0.0.XX. Is this enough on it's own...

    Double Router Security?

    So far I've made port 4 part of VLAN2 via the GUI and assigned it a new IP (192.168.0.1) and enabled a 2nd DHCP for it. So at this point I can connect my tablet (via a USB-Ethernet adapter) to port 4 and it gets an IP address of 192.168.0.106. I have internet access on the tablet. I can also...

    Double Router Security?

    I was going to follow the post step by step because I don't really know what I'm doing. Further in that thread there's a guy saying that quote "The last line in your modded iptables enables access into the router from the wan... so people out on the Internet could potentially logon, and you...

    Double Router Security?

    If you do a search for screenwise panel on Google, they're the first 2 search results, at least for me. I don't know why they're both redirecting to google.com, I get two different sites both about panelwise.

    Double Router Security?

    I'm not sure. I never signed up for anything, it was completely random. There is a less complicated version that involves using Chrome and a plug-in but the pay is a lot less so I've read. This is Google's page on the study: http://www.google.com/landing/screenwisepanel/ This is the one that...

    Double Router Security?

    Would doing the following get me what I need? http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1160 Copy and pasted: "What I was looking to do is separate Port 4 of my router into a separate VLAN that can access the internet, but not access anything on ports 1-3, or the wireless. However, I want to...

    Double Router Security?

    I do have DD-WRT installed on my WRT54G. So how do I segregate my network for this even better?

    Value of my Desktop

    I'm trying to build a new PC but would like to offset the cost of a new one by selling my old PC. I thought I'd list it in the FS sub-forum but I don't think I'm allowed to ask for value of items there. So... any idea what I might be able to list it for on Craigslist or say here? Just selling...

    Need tablet recommendation from tablet experts

    +1 I bought a Thrive about 3-4 months ago and love it. Replaceable battery, full size HDMI and USB, SD slot, dock connector for dock with 2 USB and HDMI out. You can plug in hard drives, flash drives, RJ45-to-USB adapter for ethernet instead of WiFi, game pads, and apparently even CD-ROM drives...

    Double Router Security?

    So, not sure if anyone is familiar with a research program Google is doing, but the short is that they will pay you $120 up front and $30/month if you install a Cisco router that will report your internet activity to Google as part of a large research program. I figure I already use Google...

    Solid versus stranded cat6 dilemma

    I wasn't insisting on using CAT6, just asking the opinion of if I already have to run network cable, do I continue using CAT5e, run new CAT6 resulting in a mix of 5e and 6 in the house, or just re-run all CAT6 if I already have to run cable anyway. Yeah, the already-run CAT5e is just run...

    Solid versus stranded cat6 dilemma

    Went and looked at the house again today during inspection. The phone lines he ran are CAT5. Now I just gotta run network for all the cable locations. Gonna be a lot easier than I thought. Do I run new CAT6 everywhere? Do I run CAT6 to the new locations only? Or do I stick with CAT5 on the new...

    Solid versus stranded cat6 dilemma

    Shoot... didn't think about that one. :rolleyes: Guess we'll find out. If I have to run new cables, no big deal. Try running cables from basement to 2nd story in an 1888 farm house with multiple additions... my new house will be like shooting fish in a barrel... :D I'll look into the Leviton...

    Solid versus stranded cat6 dilemma

    Sorry to dig up an old thread... but I've got a similar situation. Buying my first home in the next few days (waiting for that closing date!) and am already planning my home network needs. The house has CATV and phone lines already run. I don't know who uses landlines anymore, but meh. I figure...

    e6750 overclock

    I tried those setting, and it failed miserably. At 1.45 it didn't even boot, and at 1.475 it got to the windows XP loading GUI, then crashed. I even had a +0.1 on my FSB, MCH, and DDR2... i ran a memtest 10+ hours last night, no errors in those results either. I'm thinking more and more that...
