    Recommendations/thoughts for 19-inch Rack System

    I'll focus initially on OEM's & Retailers who have a presence in my City/State in Australia. I'll move beyond that only if I don't see anything that I'm happy with, which is unlikely. Devices it'll house: *1U for the Firewall/Router/Kitchen-sink *1U for the 16-port Gbit Switch *1-3U for the 19"...

    Recommendations/thoughts for Ethernet Cabling & Switch(es)

    Trying to decide whether I should get something like this (doesn't ship to Australia) http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000JLF4FG/?tag=snbforums-20 OR.... A discrete Gbit switch which fits snugly into the 19" rack (approx. 6U) with swing door that I'll be installing. AFAICT I'll need 6 Ethernet ports...

    Recommendations for discrete Gw/Fw etc. Router

    Originally I planned to just use the wireless router I get, but with the topology I now have in mind, I think it'll make more sense to have a dedicated router/gw device. One that plugs into a switch(1), or has an excellent switch integrated. I'd prefer something that's relatively easily...

    Networking over Home Power Infra.

    What's the best performing & most reliable/stable standard nowadays for this kinda thing? Is HomePlug still where it's at? Is there still more than one competing standard? Thank-you.

    Killer WRT/AP i.e. the "top dog" IYO?

    Which -IYO- is that one nowadays? In somewhat of a rush, normally I'd spend lots of time meticulously comparing/contrasting, but lately my time's too limited, sadly. It's Wifi Access-Point: abilities/performance/range/reliability+stability are probably the most important. It's gw/routing/fw...

    TEW-687GA client + WRT610N v1 AP

    Hi All, Just wondering if anyone can advise whether this (at least in theory) will work well with my WRT610N v1? I intend to install the latest stable DD-WRT (or maybe something lighter) on my 610N v1 & use it only as my AP. If I recall correctly, the the WRT610N v1 & v2 don't support true...

    Which WiFi supplement: aircon Ethernet, MoCa, AV2, or a combo?

    That's the question I'm wrangling with.... :D I don't know if I'll hit a limit to what my WRT610N_v1 can do (n.b. still have ancient 802.11b/g client adapters). As I haven't yet completed my HTPC/PVR build, & it's 1-2 front-ends around the house. I don't even know yet what sort of simultaneous...

    Intel Q45 or nV 9x00 as base for NAS/GP Server

    Hi, I'm trying to decide between the following motherboards from the following chip-set families... nVidia MCP 730i/Geforce 9400: This is pretty much the only decent option in Australia (Gigabyte's not available)...
