The Sabertooth Z77 board has 3 (three) 4-pin and 1 (one) 3-pin fan headers directly above the CPU socket. You should have no trouble connecting them straight to the board without having to mess with splitters or headers or anything of the such.

Then you will need to turn DHCP off on the WD router... It's still doing NAT and setting up a DHCP pool. That's why you have two networks (192.168.0.1 & 192.168.1.1)

It sounds like the modem is bridging to one of the devices at a time and rotating around when it receives a broadcast from another device. Depending on the modem that you have, you can set it up as your router. You are correct in stating that they only provide you one PUBLIC IP address, but...

It sounds like you have two routers on the same network. I'm assuming the "superhub2" is a modem/router combo that you get from your ISP. What you need to do is remove all of the connections from the superhub2 and have them all coming off of the Western Digital router. This would mean that...

Yes, you just need to set up forwarding rules so that VPN traffic is directed to the server. Assigning the server a static IP or binding the MAC in the DHCP pool would be the easiest way of making sure it doesn't break randomly when/if it gets a new IP address from the router.

Try this... I want to see if the connection is dropping or if there is packet loss. Type the following in a command prompt: "ping www.google.com -n 100" This will ping Google 100 times, if there is no packet loss with this, then try adjusting it to 1000. It will take about 15 minutes to run...

Try statically assigning your computer. Using your iPhone as an example, just assign your computer a number higher in the last octet (the last "dot"). IE: Let's say your iPhone has 192.168.1.6 for the IP. 255.255.255.0 for the subnet and 192.168.1.1 for the gateway, then you would assign...

Can you try statically configuring your computer - 192.168.1.2 as your IP, 255.255.255.0 for the subnet and 192.168.1.1 as the gateway. Then try to get to the router interface that way. (You can either leave the DNS blank or just use 8.8.8.8 as the primary) If you are still unable to get into...

Getting the block of statics is not going to do anything for connectivity inside of the house. I believe the problem that you are having is mainly wireless coverage in the house and slow throughput. I have a few businesses that I support outside of my main job (I'm a NOC engineer for a major...

Have you tried turning it off and on? It could be a duplicate IP address issue. If you run ipconfig from your desktop, do you get a valid 192.168.x.x address?

Switches are cheap... Buy a new one. The power adapter may have gone bad, they can go bad before the actual switch itself does. See if there is another outlet and if you don't get any lights, then you know there's a problem.
