Hi. I recently bought two wireless routers, a Linksys Dual-Band wireless-N gigabit router and a Linksys Wireless-N broadband router. Anyways I’ve been using the Linksys dual band router recently but the wireless range seems a bit weak and slow. My question is which one would have a better and stronger range as well as faster connection? Also the advantadges or disadvantadges of both would also be great. Thanks.

My wireless internet is usually fine but as of last week it has been running very slow on my home network. My brothers and sisters still get fast connection it is just my computer. It remains slow even with ethernet cable connected. One other thing is that it is fine on any other networks like my work wireless network.

It stays slow even when close to the modem.

Thanks.

I bought a Linksys Gigabit Network Adapter, EG1032 and I have to install it into a PCI slot. I attempted to do that once, but it wouldn’t work. Sometimes if I move it up or down, a light indicating that it is connected to the power source flickers. I called Linksys technical support and they were NO GOOD! If anyone knows what my problem might be, please respond. Thanks!

On a Gigabit Ethernet network, if you want to capture traffic passing over a subnet’s default gateway, where must you install the sniffer?

Basically it’s a review question in one of my BTEC labs, but I’m unsure of the answer. If someone could possibly help me out, it would be great, thanks.

I need help as to if this is possible. What I am exploring is if it is possible to run an exhaustive program such as AutoCad from a separate computer on a home network. But at the same time not have any hesitation. My situation is that I don’t have much space and it’s a lot easier to use a laptop. I was going to place just a desktop in another room, maybe even a closet. I basically want to use it as an external harddrive.

If a company is using multiple switches, just because it’s easy to just place switches in a room, rather than to wire cables from the wall-outlets to a switch, how will it affect the network?

It’s the difference between direct cabling to the wall-outlets and switching from the server to multiple switches to the end-computer.

direct cabling:
server => switch => wall-outlet => computer

multiple switches:
server => switch => switch => switch => computer

Will the multiple switches really decrease the performance on the network?

Here is my problem:

I have a wireless network and I need to be able to hook up my XBOX360 and PS3 to the network on the other side of the house. I have an extra Linksys WRT54GS and I was wondering, is there a way that I can use that router to receive the signal of the wireless network and then hard wire the game consoles to the ethernet ports of that router?

[…] the past I reviewed the DNS-321 and the major complaint there was the device’s inability to utilize gigabit network capacity […]
