    Laptop Sync / offline-file sync Alternatives?

    Hi everyone, Just want to pick your guys' brains, anyone here who's worked in a SMB / Windows server environment. I'm currently working with a company of about 120 users in a fairly straight forward Windows Server / AD environment. The environment is primarily desktops, but we do have...

    VLAN How To: Segmenting a small LAN

    I have a quick question regarding the setup in this article. I ask because I might have to set up this very same setup for a friend's office (shared office). I've done lots of VLAN'ing on bigger Cisco switches and routers, but not much on the Linksys type equipment. My question is essentially...

    Need to buy used Cisco Equip.

    Hey, I'm finally challenging my CCNA/P exams after years of putting it off. I know of a couple good books that come with decent network sim programs. However, in the long term I'd ideally like to get a nice collection of some used or old cisco equipment to bash around on both for general...

    Best codec for ripping/archiving DVD's?

    So, on the weekend I finally got the network at my new home running. I'm using an Athlon64 3200 machine with 2 RAID'd 1TB drives as a NAS of sorts (running XP Pro). I used to have an XP MediaCenter, so I'd rip DVD's to the hard drive in straight VOB format (DVD Shrink) and they'd play without...

    NAS Performance, is a PC Better?

    I was looking over the charts this morning as I'm looking to buy or build a BYOD NAS, and most GigE NAS's on the market seem to only average around 20-25MB/s read and 15-20 write?. What's the big bottleneck here? Is is just that off-the-shelf NAS products are using cheap or minimal hardware? I...

    SMB Router reviews

    Here's something I see all to few of in general - SMB grade routers. SNB does have a few good write-ups of a few SMB class devices (I believe there's a good write up on an RV042), but I'd like to see more personally. There's a lot of people out there who run small business and relatively small...

    More reviews and round-up's

    I would like to see more summaries and reviews of common networking equipment. This site has some god articles on here, but it would be nice to see some articles along the lines of 'Routers under $100 compared', or something of the sort. There's lots of charts on here, but it seems to get thin...

    What's a good router these days?

    I'm a network admin during the day, and haven't really kept up on networking products in the home space. Back a couple of years ago, the WRT54's set the standard, but now it seems not so much. I think I've gone through about 3 of them in the past year, and my current one is flaky as hell...
