switch

I'm currently using a Hitron CODA56 modem with 1000/100 internet and an ASUS RT-AX58U. I'm told by my ISP in the next 5-7 years they plan to have everyone over on Fiber. I have a TERRAMASTER F4-424 PRO, which has 2x 2.5G ethernet ports. My motherboard is an ASRock X570 Taichi with a 1G ethernet...

Hi all, so I’m redesigning my network and running some Ethernet cable throughout the house. I have my fiber coming in to the ONT and it originally went to an 8 port Linksys wireless router. What I’m going to be doing is hard wiring a couple WiFi access points in the areas of the house that...

In short, I am able to access a website when I connect my PC directly to the modem, but not when I use a switch in between. To login to that website, we need to register our IP addresses first through our HQ. We registered 3 out of 5 static IP addresses allotted by our ISP. The ISP gave us a...

Hello, I'm experiencing a problem with SMB over my RT-AX58U, both wireless and wired. Most of my network is hardwired through a layer 2 switch, which in turn is connected to the AX58U to act as my router and gateway. My network includes a very fast NAS (SSDs, RAID5) that transfers data at...

I am designing a network for several buildings over a reasonable area (not sure how many sq feet), but i estimate, ideally, it will require: A mesh capable primary router - I have 2 x AC88U and 1 x AX89X I think 4 x node routers - I have amassed 6 x AC68U a largish switch - I have a netgear 24...

Hi SNB Peoples, I had a GT-AXE11000 until i dropped it this weekend. Like really badly. Like Paul Walker in a Porsche GT bad. I have ordered a GT-AX6000 to replace her, unlike the AXE11000 the AX6000 has Dual 2.5GbE ports. What I want to know is the following: I am going to plug my 1 Gig...

Hey Everyone, I am currently in an interesting position where I rent an apartment on an estate, My Landlord has a 500mbit connection, but due to the bog standard Modem/Router and the Auto Negotiation everyone can only use a maximum of 100Mbit even when noone else is using the connection. The...

Hi guys. I got a new Asus ROG Rapture GT-AX6000 router. My network is the following: GT-AX6000: WAN: 1Gb/s download / 100Mb/s upload eth2: Old NAS (1Gb/s) eth5: Unmanaged QNAP QSW-1105-5T switch (2.5Gb/s) QNAP QSW-1105-5T: eth1: GT-AX6000 (2.5Gb/s) eth2: New...

Greetings everyone! It's been a long while since I've been around. I guess that means all has been well in terms of my networking setup/needs. 😁 I needed more ethernet connectivity in my media system stand so picked up a 16 port subject title gigabit switch, replacing a USB-powered D-Link 8...

Hi networking experts (of which I am not), TLDR: Which switch mode should I use in a mixed home network? I bought an unmanaged 16-port gigabit switch online that has no documentation. It has a three position switch labelled in Chinese which seems to mean (standard, clone, isolation). It seems...

Hi - I'm looking to begin creating a wired network in my house in the UK - Wireless and boosters and powerline adaptors are current setup but irritating drop-outs and now need to have internet connection in an external garage Our router is in a downstairs family area in the centre of a 2 storey...

Hello! I would like to ask for help in choosing a router. ■ In what environment (number/material of walls, distances, levels, neighbors) would it be used? I want to cover an area of roughly 60 square meters with it. The maximum number of walls between my devices and the router are 2 concrete...

I have a Linksys CM3024 cable modem with XFinity internet. That goes into an Eero wireless router. Then out of the router into an 8 port switch to run all the wired components (my PCs, network printer, PlayStation 3 & 4, etc.) This has worked for over a decade with a basic unmanaged D Link...

Configuration: LAN clients are connected to a single switch. Each client switch port is setup with a Private VLAN where they are allowed to communicate with the Internet, but not each other. The switch's uplink port is connected to the router (RT-AC88U) that acts as the DHCP and DNS server and...

Is there any insight as to why the Ethernet backhaul for many mesh wifi systems cannot pass through a managed switch? I have a ZenWifi XT8, and it, along with many others, have Ethernet backhaul as an option but they must go through an unmanaged switch. I’ve read some posts referring to it...

Does such an animal exist? Building a small office with all PoE phones and security cameras. I was hoping to do everything from the NGFW but most that I've found have a limited number of actual PoE ports. If I do get something rated as a PoE switch, am I wrong to assume that all the ports...

I'm planning on installing 2-4 POE security cameras. They most likely be 5MP cameras or 4K cameras, not sure yet. I know that a Gigabit Poe switch is always better, but my question is... is it required? Due to my specific situation, I won't be able to install more than 4 poe cameras. So having...

Currently, I have a number of AC68U's running my network. All run the latest version of Merlin. Router 1 handles the incoming fiber line and does the heavy lifting for the firewall, DHCP, and AiMesh master node. The other 3 act as nodes and do their thing. I would like to replace Router 1...
