    Wireless bridge ½ mile outdoors?

    +1 I run two Ubiquiti NBE-M5-16 NanoBeams in a 900 Meter P2P connections and they work great.. Sand storms, RF interference and power brown outs/surges and they are still have no issues. Plus they are only around $70 per station. But if you want to do it on the cheap/dumpster dive and you...

    New Rack Comparison/Opinion

    Cisco is pushing the X series ASA. The first Gens are getting older.. looks like the 5505 is still supported but the 5510 is EOL... But the 5520 is more then what I need for my home server room. Sure beats a Linksys WRT54G! Have you looked at Cisco packet tracer? You can get a CCNA rather...

    Cisco IP phones

    Depends on model of phone and how depends on what firmware version your running.. But generally you can add multiple extensions. If your using CUCM/CME, Cisco has some great guides (eg http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucme/admin/configuration/guide/cmeadm.html) If your...

    New Rack Comparison/Opinion

    I would keep a eye out on craigslist... I picked up a 48U, 4 post APC rack with a metered power distribution units for $150. Also, leave room for expansion, looks like your working on a CCNA/CCNP, but you never know when you will drift into a ASA, TACACS server or Call Manager. But if you hard...

    Curious about Ruckus or other "enterprise" access points

    Depends on what route HP goes.. If they go for "home use" then Aruba will crash and burn, but if treated Aruba as "corporate" then they do provide descent product, at a cost. long term, I am worried about Aruba.

    Curious about Ruckus or other "enterprise" access points

    The Aruba 220 series are great APs. Your lucky to find a deal on them. Just as a FYI, Aruba got bought out by HP back in march. I hope HP does not bugger things up. Also, If you don't buy the product from an "Approved Aruba Partner", Aruba will give you a run around when it comes to...

    Question about using VPN

    Depends on how evil the Corp is... I've done remote mitm attacks on a network over a VPN loaded on a client machine (wife's machine) as a proof of concept. You should be safe, but there is always a risk when you connect anything to a network. (printers: Old school FTP bounce attacks on HP...

    Network pics thread

    Very nice and very clean Jen4950. It's always good to see someone moving to a better location and new hardware. Site moves are always a pain and create that moment when you force the swap and everyone looks around waiting for the world to end.
