    Is my modem or router not up to the task?

    I will try this sub-forum for my question: Yesterday I installed a second Nest Cam and it greatly affected web browsing, a lot of pages would not load on the first try. I turned the camera on and off to verify it's the culprit. My upload bandwith is 10Mbps and each Nest cam uses about 1 Mbps...

    Yesterday I installed a second Nest Cam and it greatly affected web browsing, a lot of pages would not load on the first try. I turned the camera on and off to verify it's the culprit. My upload bandwith is 10Mbps and each Nest cam uses about 1 Mbps for upload, so this is not the bottleneck...

    MB option for a budget workstation w/ ECC RAM

    MB option for a budget workstation w/ ECC RAM

    I guess workstation is not the best term as it usually refers to a machine for rendering/computing, it's more for monitoring and logging but we want to minimize downtime.

    MB option for a budget workstation w/ ECC RAM

    MB option for a budget workstation w/ ECC RAM

    I am looking to build a workstation for $700-800, speed is not important as it's mainly for monitoring/logging data 24/7. I want to go with ECC RAM to minimize downtime, what are my options?

    Not able to connect to printer, wifi router

    Good news, I found the cause, it's NordVPN. I used Norton removal tool to remove Norton but the problem stayed. Then I removed NordVPN and it's gone.

    Not able to connect to printer, wifi router

    Well, VPN is for connecting out right? Why would the machine be able to connect to the internal (wifi router, printer) if I am behind VPN?

    Not able to connect to printer, wifi router

    Here's an interesting development, I tried to access wifi router behind a VPN and it worked! After I disconnected from the VPN it could no longer connect.
