Great post

Pfsense can do this pretty easily without any scripting on your part, and compared to a business router/switch with these features, it will be considerably less expensive . There is a built in captive portal function that will let you limit bandwidth by ip, or mac address. Bandwidthd will let...

Check youtube for esxi setup and intro videos. It's pretty easy to get up and running. For the pfsense box you'll want to use the E1000 virtual nics when you set the vm up. Having a dual port nic is not required because you can virtualize interfaces on one nic. However, you should use...

Do this. Most routers these days offer QoS out of the box, or can use a third party firmware that supports it. This will be cheaper since you won't need to pay for another internet connection, and the router will use less power than a dedicated PC.

Go with a refurbed netgear WNDR3700v2. You can get them for around $60-$70. Don't waste your money on an E3000. I upgraded from one of those to a WNDR 3700v2 and I couldn't be happier.

Don't bother pinging it unless you enabled ICMP prior to get it to respond to ping requests since it's disabled by default. Try accessing by name or IP. I have a similar set-up (win 2008 r2 with WHS under hyper-v) and they're all to date and remote access to shares using \\server name\ works...

BF3 uses different physics for bullets than most games do. Bullets don't instantly hit other players or objects, they "travel" through the air before impact. Also, the health bar only shows the opposing players health at the moment he/she killed you. That;s why you still get kill assist...

Netgear offers some nice stuff in that price range, and they're support is really great if you buy new.

Get a refurbished Netgear WNDR 3700v2. They cost about $60-$70 and are rock solid out of the box.

It defeats the purpose of having two nics in your media server, and gaming computer, if the switches connecting them have a single gigabit uplink. If you're still set on this idea of increasing your bandwidth (and in this scenario, a single gigabit link gigabit is more than enough for 2...

It sounds like it might be over heating.

Switching the NIC type to E1000 worked. Thanks.

How did you guys get it running on ESXi 5? I can't get the nics to be recognized during setup, even if I enter em0/em1 as the interface names.

if it's still under waranty don't try to fix it yourself. Send it in and get it replaced.

He doesn't need the microsoft one. Any wireless bridge will work.

You're going to need (if you don't have one already) either a wireless router or access point, and then you'll need a wireless bridge to connect to the xbox. I use a Linksys WRT54GS router and Linksys WET54G bridge and it works perfectly.

Comcast probably reshaped their traffic flows in their network.

Fiber or a wireless ptp setup.

I was with charter for 3-4 years. There service wasn't that great. There was frequent down time that lasted up to 12 hours. I was also overbilled $1,300 which they wouldn't repay until I cancelled my service. So once I found out, I turned my equipment in and switched to DSL. I lived in...

If you don't mind me asking, what school do you go to?

Try setting the gateway of the router on the bottom to the ip of the router on top.

I'm having the same problem. Changing dns servers doesn't work either. What ISP do you have? Verizon here.

Hit the configure button for your adapter. On laptops the power gets turned down when you aren't plugged in. You can change it to leave it at full power all the time. You can also boost the power on some router's antennas to make a stronger signal and boost range. Do this through the web...

If I remember correctly, the 2500 serial links used to connect the routers are also limited to 3mbps.

It depends on the subnet you use. Normally most home routers are preset with 255.255.255.0, and it will allow you to connect 254 devices. Ofcrourse you can change this, but in your case this subnet is fine.

That's a fucking bargain in my books.

make sure you are using the proper firmware for your router version.

Check out the 2700 series of switches from Dell too.

I'd buy that for a dollar

What exactly did he major in?

Gamers are better off getting a better broadband solution than waste money on this piece of crap.

Thought you were using verizon for a sec. I have a similar setup at my home. Only difference being I am on verizon, and not bellsouth.

Ok, first thing is put your gateway as your router's ip. Open up Network Connections under the start menu. Right click on the NIC interface and select properties. Then a new window should appear. Scroll to TCP/IP and select properties. There should be options to obtain ip addresses...

What model # is your dsl modem?
