Thank you, everyone, for your help, as normal the solution turned out to be extremely simple yet a little weird. I stated at the start that i had tried setting myself into the .o.2 pool of addresses which led to no change. Here i was in the right area just not the close enough, that must have...

S0 I bought a new switch, a TP Link T1500, it has on the bottom an IP-address + the login credentials for the web interface. Yet when I enter the address 192.168.0.1 it will not pop up, this is the same whether its plugged into the existing network or not. I've reset too yet no results. Anyone...

I would easily go for the smaller one, only one reason u can't is that I need Poe too. I also got offered one locally for £50 which seems too good to turn down

So I can still run it fine without those SPF slots being filled? I will never be using all 25 slots for ethernet anyways.

Hi, I've been looking for a new switch, I stumbled upon the TP-LINK T1500-28PCT which looks great, I did notice however it seems to use sfp ports, my knowledge here is non existent still so I was hoping somebody would know if I need to use them here, or will a normal ethernet input work still...

I dont ave the best understanding of load balancing so i may...

So I currently have an ASUS B150M-PLUS D3 MoBo, compatible with DDR 3 RAM I was thinking of upgrading from my current i5 6500 to the i7 6700k but i am aware that it is meant to work with DDR4 ram (I think) . I would like to not buy DDR4 ram given he current price hike and use my current DDR3...

So the other day i accidentally stuck the wrong usb into my rig, it turned out to be my windows server 2012 usb, i saw it as no issue as it wouldn't do anything would it? well next time i restarted the pc (with the usb out of the computer) i was greeted with a windows option screen asking if i...

First off, this was the first time i have done anything with a server operating system, i also dont claim to have any idea what im doing. My knowledge is in wiring networks and building PC's not server's (yet) I got an old office pc (HP Compaq 6000 pro microtower) and i had the idea that in...

have you tried a different router/modem?

Well the title is self explanatory, i have a setup where i have 2 N66u's working in parallel and for some reason the main one is not allowing the phones to work on the network, anyone know of a fix?
