    [SOLVED] (looking to upgrade) Best Router / Modem combo? (separate sytems)

    Yeah I've done a bit of research with using a VPN through the whole router so I know that wasn't the route to take for attempting to gain a network edge. I think I might go with the XR500 and CM1000 only because I am actually probably going to upgrade our plan to gigablast (The 1GB internet...

    [SOLVED] (looking to upgrade) Best Router / Modem combo? (separate sytems)

    It is to the point where i feel i am experiencing issues, i am unable to get online on games that i used to have no issues, i have checked and its not the game servers, or my playstations. My wifi seems to be weaker than it was originally, and again i made sure it was not Cox. I think it is the...

    [SOLVED] (looking to upgrade) Best Router / Modem combo? (separate sytems)

    From what i have gathered and talking to the people at Cox (my internet has been slow and dodgy but there were no reports of any outings in or near my house) they said my router and modem seem to be at the end of the their lifespan, so i am going to purchase a router and modem really regardless...

    [SOLVED] (looking to upgrade) Best Router / Modem combo? (separate sytems)

    Hello all, I am currently looking to upgrade my router and modem as they are both on their way out after a good 4 years of usage, right now I have a Netgear R7000 AC1900 router and a CM700 modem. I don't mind sticking to Netgear but if there are other options that are more recommended i would...

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    If I wanted to passively cool this processor inside of the case what would be my best bet for a low TDP processor. Which one would I choose?

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    Funnily enough we are located in Florida and will start out by dropping it into a bayou with very moderate to warm temperatures, so we will need to start with something with a low TDP, then once we get to deeper waters we could probably upgrade the processor and surrounding components. It's less...

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    Yes we are aware that there are better ways to cool a computer, we are doing something to Project "Natick" which is one of Microsoft's main underwater server projects. What we are trying to do though is at the individual level though, and we will eventually be using a different technology to...

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    What we are doing is similar to Project "Natick" by Microsoft, except what we are doing is on a much smaller level. Our plan is different in a way I cannot divulge unfortunately, but what we are doing is something that requires the build to be this size and layout.

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    So i was mistaken and we are gonna be going up to depths of 30 meters eventually, so that is why it must be a cylinder.

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    The server we are building at this very moment is more of a mock up, we are just trying to find a way to have a server underwater, starting out with a classical one then move to almost an entirely "built by ourselves" datacenter. We are trying to use as little pre built things as possible.

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    I'm working with my father and he has designed numerous underwater solar UAVs that are cylindrical and capable of depths far beyond the 10 meter range, i do not know the specifics but i know that he has pressure handled in this case.

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    Could you explain you reasoning on why this would be a good idea? Sorry I am bit foreign to the topic of DC-DC converter.

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    We are going to start with a depth of just a meter or two, but eventually (with an improved design) have it up to depths of 10 meters.

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    This build is going to need to be under salt water conditions in the ocean, i'm kind of throwing out all classical building techniques with this one. It is going to be almost all DIY, just trying to get an understanding for the possibilities out there and to see if i can use anything already...

    [SOLVED] Under water Cylindrical PC server

    I will do some further research but this does look like a viable option for the build. Thank you!
