[QUOTE=Demache;40156863]A connection is only as fast as the slowest device in the chain. However, if you have a 1 Gb switch, and a PC with a 1 Gb NIC, and another with a 10 Mb NIC, the 1 Gb NIC won't slow down to 10 Mb.
Wireless is a little different, since everyone has to communicate the same since everyone connects to the same access point. However, as far as I know, I believe routers can support multiple network standards at the same time (like Wireless G and N at the same time).[/QUOTE]
hmm.
see, i want to take my house up to gigabit.
we've got gigabit wall plugs (i know i know)
a gigabit wireless N router and switch behind the TV
a megabit router downstairs with the phone line serving DHCP.
i have a wireless g megabit router upstairs.
we also have a gigabit switch for the AV equipment.
but since the main router with DHCP is only megabit, does this not mean if i was to send something from my computer to the TV it would be bottlenecked by the megabit router?
forgive my ignorance, i know little about networking
[QUOTE=cueballv2themax;40156678]is it true that your network is only as fast as your slowest component?[/QUOTE]
No, each physical connection will work at the speed of the slowest NIC, for example a gigabit device and a 10/100 device will communicate at 100m [B]but[/B] two gigabit devices on the same network would communicate at full gigabit speeds.
It's true that a network hub can/will cause performance issues on a network but it's not to do with wire speed.

If the connection from your computer must pass through that router serving DHCP to get to the TV, then yes, it will technically bottleneck it to 100 Mb/s speeds.

Only if it supports dual-band.
Here's my NAS.

Agreed, I have found Windows 8 to be just as productive as Windows 7. My only complaint is that certain older apps have compatibility issues. (NetBotz Advanced View crashes on start)
Solved these problems with a Windows XP VM.
New thread, new server:

Running a TS3 server and a small tekkit lite server. Runs everything fine.

the new start menu is fine on the server, but don't get me started on the fucking charms bar on server 2012.
since I never actually posted my server yet...

not much but good enough to run the very little I do.

My raspberry pi media server doesn't
oh wait...
I have this old laptop that has a broken GPU as a server but I don't have anything to use it for since it can't be accessed from WAN.

[QUOTE=Amiga OS;40183151]Can't you port forward it?
Or is your ISP complete ass and has you behind a NAT?[/QUOTE]
Not exactly sure, but forwarding ports through all the networking equipment I have doesn't make it accessible from outside. I don't know if I'd feel safe exposing a machine from my home network to internet either.
are you trying to access them or are you using canyouseeme.org or having someone else check for you?
[QUOTE=FrankPetrov;40183941]are you trying to access them or are you using canyouseeme.org or having someone else check for you?[/QUOTE]
The last time I tried canyouseeme.org nor someone else could access. I haven't researched the issue because I don't have much of use for it anyways.
Any suggestions for accessing two separate iLO clients on a home network? I can only forward port 443 to a single IP :/
[QUOTE=MTMod;40232828]Any suggestions for accessing two separate iLO clients on a home network? I can only forward port 443 to a single IP :/[/QUOTE]
You can access the configuration for it via web browser correct? If so, go into the web config page-> administration-> settings-> access then you should be able to change the port there.
Can you forward port 443 internally to a different port externally? So to connect to the first one you would go to EXTERNALIP:443 and the second one EXTERNALIP:444?
If not you could set up a VPN or a reverse proxy using Apache or IIS to get to them that way.
Don't forward your iLO ports to the web?
also
