    Edge Router Lite vs Edge Router X

    My parents have been experiencing a similar issue with their ERL. After a week or so I'll need to power cycle the router, and then it won't automatically reconnect. I originally bought an ERL since it was low powered, had a featureset and CLI I could work with, and was around the price of a...

    WTB (Canada): Two 2U shallow rack mount chassis, rack mount PDU

    you might be able to source a Norco 230 2U (supports ATX PSU), has basic front USB for $65 from the egg (given that trying to ship a large case like that will be expensive on shipping). If you're in Ottawa though I've got one that I'm not using :)

    Traveling In 2014/2015. Best VPN?

    Using some type of VPN service just means your traffic encrypted from your notebook to the VPN server. What happens after that is still open. If you're ok with that, then one of the options above would work. I've got a few VPS's through buyvm.net a $15/year option canna mentioned. Spin up an...

    FreeNAS vs NAS4Free

    We use FreeNAS here at our office as a company file server as we quickly outgrew our Windows solution not long after I started a year ago. We also use NAS4Free as an iSCSI target for our Unitrends backup storage we are currently testing (as FreeNAS currently does not work with UEFI based...

    Suggestions on how to deal with ESXi VM's that are running automation (pegged CPU's)

    I've been investigating alternatives to having multiple boxes to run test automation for development (I've been running VM's to consolidate physical box use), and it's been pretty good except for the hosts CPU being pegged almost all of the time. From what I can gather the VM's are testing...

    FS: iTunes US cards

    Just doing some spring cleaning and came across these iTunes US cards I had from a trip last year. I've got 2 x $10 cards and I'll let them go for $16 for both if anyone needs to top off their account. Non-CC PP preferred (so I can continue to buy items off US Ebay lol).

    Corsair AX850 Gold Fully Modular PSU $121 AR

    The price shows up as $135 for me without having to enter in a code? I tried the code and checkout and it was rejected. Perhaps a code isn't needed now?

    Most secure way to use open WIFI

    LF: Low profile quad Intel NIC bracket

    Looking for one or two low profile quad port Intel NIC brackets to fit a Dell quad port Intel NIC. The NIC's look like this, hoping someone may have some lying around. I did see some on ebay but charging $20+ in shipping on top of the $20 for a piece of pressed metal is a bit much...

    Where to download Windows 7?

    I'll chime in with my own experience doing this. Had an Asus 1201N I couldn't get to restore and Asus said we'll supply you with recovery discs for $50, I scoffed and told them they were out to lunch on this. Also there was never an option for me to create recovery discs even though they said...

    Remotely Access vSphere

    What I've done at home is set up an OpenVPN connection I can use from work or elsewhere and drop onto my network. From there I can either log onto a Windows VM I set up to manage vSphere or if I'm on my Windows notebook I just launch the vSphere client and go from there.

    Cost to repair an ASA5505

    I'll have to borrow one of the spare power bricks from work to test that out tomorrow, I left the device at work. I'm wondering if I'm just as well to put it up on ebay as is and recoup my losses and put this to bed. What a headache I've brought upon myself. I appreciate all the ]H[elp from...

    Cost to repair an ASA5505

    if the part could be sourced I could have a friend who lives close by and works with this stuff quite often to help too (given that I'm in canada and shipping it back and forth could become a bit hefty). But you're right trying to find the correct module will be the challenge. Hence why I was...

    Cost to repair an ASA5505

    Can you buy it for an out of warranty device? The part number on the bottom indicates its a refurbished ASA. Yeah generally my dealings with some people locally have been great (got a 24 port Procurve gigabit switch for $120 last year). But something like this leaves me bitter (moreso at...
