    Thanks for the quick reply! Just got word from Time Warner. They refuse to run the cable to a box at the gate.

    The past few day's I experimented with a Netgear R7000 and the Netgenie application on OSX and iOS. All I could get to work was Open DNS. However individual bypass and management of individual users is a mystery. Return to Retailer. Rogier

    How to hide from the building network?

    I wanted to share how I ended up configuring the network in the sublet office. As it turned out every user needs to pay for network access by going trough a portal. Once on the network all IP addresses are on the same subnet. The previous IT guy hacked the system by connecting the server...
