Now

#

My net is broken

#

2 months

desert briar
#

Sounds like you need an exorcist tbh

lean pebble
#

Bios is ok time and all the rest

desert briar
#

The certificate is signed, right? By a CA.

#

What if you try to curl instead of wget? Or Invoke-WebRequest on windows

lean pebble
#

Ya

#

My domains behind cloudflare and runing with let's encrypt + cloudflare ssl

#

Running on full strict

#

If the let's encrypt not working then no one can surf to this domain

desert briar
#

Right... hypothetically. What if you try without cloudflare?

peak cloak
#

maybe try disabling cloudflare proxy

#

just pure dns

desert briar
#

^

lean pebble
#

Even with rsync same issue

desert briar
#

Does this issue persist when you go everywhere with ssl/tls enabled? Or just your domain

#

Does the connection just slow down when downloading? Or is it outright terminated

lean pebble
#

I'm pretty sure that the same issue going in background while using epic games / steam etc.

#

I decided to try with wget because I wanted to check if I get any error

desert briar
#

🤔

#

Are we sure its not the dns

#

Its always the dns

#

Yeah well, i guess im running short on ideas. Probably wont be able to help 😦

lean pebble
#

Happen on wifi to

desert briar
#

Id recheck locally

#

With something that uses TLS

#

If it happens locally then I don’t know

#

Seems like an ISP issue to me.

#

If your clock time is synced, certificates are signed and you are using a wired connection. Yeah

#

Ill need to head off, but if I were you my next troubleshooting step would be to check if it happens locally too (ideally from multiple machines). Goodluck, I hope you get it resolved. I will check back in tomorrow

lean pebble
#

Copying file over network working good

desert briar
#

Smb?

lean pebble
#

Yap

desert briar
#

Smb is unencrypted

#

(By default, at least)

lean pebble
#

Scp seems like working

tribal ferry
#

Any tips for UniFi setup and UniFi wireless setup?

#

I’ll be swapping over my network tomorrow.

thick minnow
#

Since i have fiber speeds now might as well get the highest speed i can get with it

peak cloak
#

idk any good all-in-one routers with wifi 6

thick minnow
#

dang ok

unborn sluice
#

dang

lean pebble
#

Someone can help me find a good vdsl2 b35 modem?

versed nebula
#

I want to reduce my internet bill. I am on 400/50 now for $90 and plan to switch to 60/10 for $45

#

I am living alone

#

I dont have a 4k tv

#

I use teams for work and meetings

#

I dont game

#

Is 10mbit upload enough?

peak cloak
#

yeah, it should

versed nebula
#

I wonder if ill regret it

primal ice
coarse storm
#

what’s the fastest free dns server ?

thick minnow
coarse storm
#

i have ¢17 to my name lol

#

i honestly don’t know what to do anymore i’m failing online school due to my internet being so bad i can’t turn in assignments half the time

#

it’s so bad

thick minnow
#

what router are u using

#

and which telco are u using

coarse storm
#

the one verizon gave me

thick minnow
#

same thing happened to ke

#

me

#

if u use ethernet it goes to like 90mpbs

#

mbps*

#

is there a reboot function?

coarse storm
#

no mine goes to 2 maybe 3 mbps on ethernet

thick minnow
#

oh

thick minnow
coarse storm
#

yes there is and i’ve done it multiple times

#

nope that’s how it is

thick minnow
#

wifi vs. ethernet

#

for me

coarse storm
#

we pay for the highest internet package where we live and this is all we get

thick minnow
#

change the channel capacity of ur router

#

bruh

#

then reboot it

coarse storm
#

how do i log into my router

thick minnow
#

by ur ip

#

router ip

coarse storm
#

yes but how do i do that

thick minnow
#

for most routers its 192.somthing.something.something

#

or 10.0.0.1

coarse storm
#

i know my ip

thick minnow
#

most router is 192.168.1.1

#

just put it into the adress bar of ur web broeser

coarse storm
#

mine starts with 70

#

is that normal

thick minnow
#

thats ur private ip

#

u need ur local ip

coarse storm
#

where do i find that

thick minnow
#

do u have a windows pc

coarse storm
#

yes

thick minnow
#

go to command promp

thick minnow
#

or that

coarse storm
#

ah ok i found it

#

do i use the one that ends in 1.5 or 1.1

thick minnow
#

1.1

#

try 1.1

#

or for windows go to command prompt, type in netstat, and wait for that slow shit to load

#

1.5 is another ip for your router to recognize the device

coarse storm
#

when i copy and pasted it brought me into log in setup on verizon.com

thick minnow
#

yes

#

now set up your account

coarse storm
#

it’s not technically my internet it’s my parents idk if they would get mad if i made an account and had the log in or whatever they’re weird like thst

thick minnow
#

that account will be the admin account for you to access your router's internal settings. you can config your network SSID and password there

#

SSID = Network Name

coarse storm
#

should i just say whatever and make the account?

thick minnow
#

you can make an account or you can change an router

#

that's the only 2 choice you have rn

coarse storm
#

i’ll make an account

thick minnow
#

im glad im not in USA rn ;-;

coarse storm
#

uh it gave me a pink screen that says 400 bad request

thick minnow
#

ur router got a client error

coarse storm
#

i fixed it

#

i’m into the settings now

thick minnow
#

ok

#

go to network section

#

then change channel capacity

coarse storm
#

home,status,quick setup ,wireless setup, utility’s , advanced setup

thick minnow
#

utility's

coarse storm
#

it just gives me a reboot option

thick minnow
#

how about wireless setting

coarse storm
thick minnow
#

change the 3.

coarse storm
#

change network channel?

thick minnow
#

yes

#

change to 11

coarse storm
#

ok i did that and hit apply

thick minnow
#

yes

#

then reboot your router in utility's

coarse storm
#

my internet turned off

thick minnow
#

it should happen

#

cause ur changing the channel

#

it'll be back

#

then reboot router

coarse storm
#

ok i just clicked reboot

thick minnow
#

ok

#

give it about 5-7 min

coarse storm
#

what do i do when it comes back on

thick minnow
#

just do a speed test

coarse storm
#

ok i’ll let you know

#

didnt really do anything

tawdry token
coarse storm
#

i tried using cloud flare and my internet went out

#

normal?

#

@thick minnow

#

my pc won’t connect to my internet anymore what do i do

empty urchin
#

Maybe try talking to your ISP, its worth a shot

coarse storm
#

i’m kinda freaking out

empty urchin
#

Try changing them back

coarse storm
#

it doesn’t do anything

#

fixed it

empty urchin
#

Ok, well thats good. You can at least use the internet again for the time being, but do talk to your ISP cause even "bad" internet shouldn't be that slow. There may be some router issues but it could also be some throttling on their end or something.

tall pagoda
#

I fucked it up with DNS management

thick minnow
#

good afternoon, i need a small help i forgot my AirOS login creds and is there any way to recovery them other then resetting the device?

unborn sluice
opaque stirrup
#

trying to get faster internet to a shed outside

desert briar
#

Might encounter some issues as the adapter uses sfp whereas the transceiver is sfp+

#

sometimes you can get it working backwards, but its 50/50. I didnt have that luck on my mikrotik switches 😄

#

I'd also check with the seller / brand if HP transceivers work in their device. Some vendors are pretty pricky with what they like and what they don't. For example with mikrotik you can use almost any transceiver, whereas cisco will usually take nothing but cisco

tame carbon
#

@desert briar Cisco needs "cisco" modules

#

mikrotik happily uses whatever you throw at it, with the major exception of PON modules

opaque stirrup
#

@desert briar only reason i selected the hp modules is the server is hp and i thought the 2 modules had to be the same

tame carbon
#

same laser spec yeah

#

but modules themselves can be branded for whichever they plug into

desert briar
#

yeah, exactly

tame carbon
#

fs.com sells modules for all brands

#

the mtik ones you just buy 'generic'

desert briar
#

I think I got a DELL module working with an old cisco 3560x once

#

but yeah, cisco takes cisco

tame carbon
#

there's really no reason why cisco requires this

desert briar
#

$$$

tame carbon
#

its just their way of 🖕

opaque stirrup
#

so should i change to just sfp modules?

#

as if the port is sfp+ it should just work

tame carbon
#

SFP+ slots are backwards compatible with SFP

desert briar
#

Theoretically

tame carbon
#

Not the other way around

#

@desert briar I have 1G RJ45 modules in 10G ports

#

works just fine

desert briar
#

Yeah, i got ahead of myself and said it before you said the other sentence

#

😄

opaque stirrup
#

do cisco modules work in non cisco equipment

desert briar
#

anyways, i guess the transceiver will be for the converter? In that case you need sfp

tame carbon
#

only one way to find out

#

@opaque stirrup what is your situation?

opaque stirrup
#

alright so my server has 2 sfp ports on it i didnt know this when i bought it

tame carbon
#

SFP or SFP+ ?

opaque stirrup
#

emm

#

lemme look

clear igloo
#

@opaque stirrup 10G or 1G ports

tame carbon
#

basically ^

opaque stirrup
#

530FLR

#

10gb

#

sfp+

#

just googled

tame carbon
#

thats 2x 10G

opaque stirrup
#

the problem is the server is out in a shed lmao

clear igloo
#

I've got some 10g SFP+ cisco modules that I've used in solarflare and TP-Link 10G NICs without issue

opaque stirrup
#

about 10 metres away from my house

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup Are you thinking about running fiber between the shed and your house?

opaque stirrup
#

basically

#

since ethernet is expensive

tame carbon
#

Are you planning on 1G or 10G ?

opaque stirrup
#

lmao 1g

#

my wan is only 250mbps

tame carbon
#

its not a bad question ;)

desert briar
#

10g isnt that expensive

tame carbon
#

I have 250M WAN and 10G LAN

desert briar
#

well, if you define expensive

#

yeah, same

#

10gbit lan

tame carbon
#

ye

opaque stirrup
#

its not that its just wasted

unborn sluice
#

not if you transfer internally

opaque stirrup
#

lmao

tame carbon
#

My little server box can do ~3gbit/s transfer speed (I use it as a NAS)

opaque stirrup
#

the word for someone who hasnt had the love time is censored

#

the ISP V Media

tame carbon
#

so 1G would saturate the link

desert briar
#

honestly if you dont mind the money and you dont need a switch (just a direct plug) then 10gbit will be like 50$ more expensive?

#

if you already have an sfp+ NIC

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup what length of of distance?

opaque stirrup
#

about 20m

#

to be safe

tame carbon
#

Are you sure copper isnt just easier at this point?

opaque stirrup
#

lmao what just ethernet?

tame carbon
#

fiber is ethernet too

opaque stirrup
#

i meant cat whatever number

#

is up to date

tame carbon
#

copper can do 1G up to 100 meters on Cat5e

desert briar
#

cat5e can do 10gbit, believe it or not

tame carbon
#

You can invest into fiber, be my guest. I didnt need 10G here, but I just did it for the hell of it

opaque stirrup
#

yeah but i would need ethernet modules and they are some how more expensive than the light ones

desert briar
#

on small distances 😄

tame carbon
#

wanted to learn how 2 fiber

opaque stirrup
#

my old server was only 10/100

#

so i could do it over powerline

#

but i aint having that anymore

desert briar
#

ouch, a pi?

opaque stirrup
#

no lmao some old dell thing

desert briar
#

those are 10/100 I think

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup simplest solution for you would be singlemode bi-di SFP

opaque stirrup
#

2x amd opteron 2373
16gb ddr2

tame carbon
#

It uses a single fiber, with two wavelengths

#

Multimode fiber

#

the cheapest modules have a range of 10km

opaque stirrup
#

ok like how does bending go with this kinda stuff

#

i know its not good for it

clear igloo
#

you mean singlemode fiber

tame carbon
desert briar
#

shouldnt bend fiber 😄

tame carbon
#

Sorry, I ment singlemode yes

opaque stirrup
#

i cant exactly not bend it at some point lmao

tame carbon
#

SMF on OS2 fiber

clear igloo
#

I bend fiber all day 😛

desert briar
#

lol

opaque stirrup
#

i can try make it less of an angle but its gonna have to go a 90 degree

tame carbon
#

Fibers have a minimum bend radius

desert briar
#

yeah than you are fine

clear igloo
#

Just can't do sharp wrap around the pencil and pull hard type bends

desert briar
#

below 90 is fine

thick minnow
#

my town is getting fiber soon

tame carbon
#

any tighter than the min radius, and the fiber snaps

thick minnow
#

i saw them running the lines out in the country

desert briar
#

however anything close to 90 is a dangerous playground 😄

opaque stirrup
#

lmao this setup of mine is so ghetto

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup You'd need two of those ^

thick minnow
#

my setup is a old dell optiplex with PFsense on it

tame carbon
#

VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure you get two different kinds of modules

thick minnow
#

better than any walmart router

tame carbon
#

BiDi interfaces are specific to which side they are on

opaque stirrup
#

confusing lmao

#

so buy 2 of the same????

tame carbon
#

Note: they look extremely similair, but look at the wavelengths

#

1310nm-TX/1490nm-RX

#

and

#

1490nm-TX/1310nm-RX

#

See how RX and TX are flipped?

opaque stirrup
#

so they switch round?

#

yeah

tame carbon
#

So you have to get one with the blue ribbon, and a purple ribbon

opaque stirrup
#

so what cable would work

tame carbon
#

They use a single fiber, and two wavelengths of light

#

You can customize lengths here

opaque stirrup
#

what is fs?

tame carbon
#

You'll want LC UPC connectors on the end

opaque stirrup
#

some network company

tame carbon
#

fiber store

opaque stirrup
#

oooh

desert briar
#

fs is your friend

#

😄

tame carbon
#

FS sells it all

#

worldwide

desert briar
#

they have the best equipment out there imo

#

both homelab and enterprise

tame carbon
#

Yeah they have good pricing

desert briar
#

while being reasonably priced

tame carbon
#

ofc the 100G+ module stuff costs a LOT more

#

like 1000 bucks for 1 module

#

xD

desert briar
#

they have a 400gbit switch in there

#

heh

clear igloo
opaque stirrup
#

why is it so cheap

#

wtf

tame carbon
#

@clear igloo with a duplex fiber?

desert briar
clear igloo
#

Yah

tame carbon
#

That could work

desert briar
#

one day haha

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup you can either do 'Duplex" fibers, where you have 2 fibers, one for each direction

#

or use BiDi where you have two different modules on a single fiber

#

with two wavelengths

#

Duplex modules are cheaper, but you'll need a duplex fiber as well

#

Duplex fibers can easily be identified

opaque stirrup
#

BiDi would mean the cable was smaller?

tame carbon
#

Nah

#

they just use 1 fiber instead of a pair

#

BiDi = Bi directional

opaque stirrup
#

alright

tame carbon
#

with duplex fibers

opaque stirrup
#

so i take it these wouldnt be good outside

tame carbon
#

you just twist the connector on one side

opaque stirrup
#

you know exposed to the elements

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup oh, no

#

definetly not.

opaque stirrup
#

lmao

desert briar
#

bury it underground

#

if its an option

tame carbon
#

You need a pipe or a tube to put it in

#

But shouldnt be exposed to elements

#

though.. maybe

#

lemme check if they sell rugged OS2 fibers

opaque stirrup
#

i was going to attach it to the power cable for the shed

#

lmao

#

as i said ghetto

desert briar
#

well then get a fiber which is rated for outside

#

(if its a thing? I never really researched that)

#

or as crystal said, run it through a tube, pipe which can withstand hardships

tame carbon
clear igloo
#

Yah, there is outdoor rated fiber cables

tame carbon
#

shit gets expensive ^

opaque stirrup
#

its armoured lmao

tame carbon
#

You can get "Military grade" outdoor cables

opaque stirrup
#

its gonna be hanging from another wire surely i could just ziptie it lmao

#

its not like the fibre is gonna short out

#

it will just break

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup those ^ are armored, and can withstand some wear

clear igloo
#

Sun will degrade the shielding

tame carbon
#

^

#

Thats a big thing too

opaque stirrup
#

its scotland

#

theres no sun

tame carbon
#

Photodissociation, photolysis, or photodecomposition is a chemical reaction in which a chemical compound is broken down by photons. It is defined as the interaction of one or more photons with one target molecule.
Photodissociation is not limited to visible light. Any photon with sufficient energy can affect the chemical bonds of a chemical c...

opaque stirrup
#

im fine

desert briar
#

lol

#

if you want to run fiber run it properly

#

😄

#

so you dont need to change it in 6 months time 😛

tame carbon
#

I just used a hard PVC tube under the pavement

opaque stirrup
#

how deep

tame carbon
#

like 30cm?

#

its next to the sewer pipe xD

desert briar
#

:d

opaque stirrup
#

what if i get a really long bit of emm whats it called

#

heat shrink tubing

#

and put the fibre inside it

desert briar
#

i have my servers in the basement right under the water pipes

opaque stirrup
#

boom

desert briar
#

living a dangerous life as well

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup just get flexible hardtubing ment for outdoor water supply

#

they have like 2cm diameter

#

and 0.5cm plastic wall

opaque stirrup
#

my dad electrical taped an extension cable to a rope and hung it between the house and shed

#

its so sketchy

tame carbon
#

LDPE I think was the material

#

polyethylene

opaque stirrup
#

bruh i just noticed this transceiver thing says 10km

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup yep

#

Singlemode fibers can go long distance

opaque stirrup
#

this stuff is so cheap and over kill

tame carbon
#

10km is shortest

#

ZR+ can do like 80km+

#

multimode fibers are limited to like 100-300 meters

#

and have lower speeds at longer distances

#

singlemode fibers can do 200G easily

clear igloo
#

800G*

tame carbon
#

I thought 400G was the latest and greatest?

#

we can stuff 800G on a single wavelength now?!

clear igloo
#

That's what I love about single mode, it can do Tbps without issue 😄

tame carbon
#

yep

#

with DWDM you can pack 96 wavelengths on a single fiber

desert briar
#

and then it all goes to my 10k SAS drive

tame carbon
#

for like theoretical max of 18Tbit/s

clear igloo
#

Yup

desert briar
clear igloo
#

Ciena and a couple others have 800G optics for backhaul stuff iirc

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup be glad this stuff is finally in reach of consumers :)

#

as the enterprise upgrades to 100, 400 and now 800G

opaque stirrup
#

yeah its really cool

tame carbon
#

10G networking

#

I paid like 350 bucks for my network

clear igloo
#

800G in the enterprise is about a year or so away :(
400G is just rolling out in that space

desert briar
#

^ 10gbit is a viable choice if people know what they are doing Id say

tame carbon
#

^ my 10G capable router

desert briar
#

which one? the 2U machine?

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup as you can see here, I use bi-di interfaces

#

@desert briar the tiny 1U thing at the top

#

the server underneath is also 10G connected

opaque stirrup
#

you actually have a nice networking setup lmao

tame carbon
#

the switch is not visible in this picture

desert briar
#

ah

tame carbon
#

I got this as a 10G switch

desert briar
#

I am running crs326

#

shines bright

peak cloak
#

I have a janky setup

desert briar
#

let me get a pic 😄

clear igloo
peak cloak
#

I'll get an updated pic

clear igloo
#

Only 1Gbps internet though 😦

desert briar
#

we are essentially doing who has a bigger dick now

#

but with home setups

tame carbon
#

@clear igloo hack more wavelengths

desert briar
#

i like it

tame carbon
#

upload more ram

clear igloo
#

@tame carbon haha, yes! 😄

tame carbon
#

all those ports

#

no devices

desert briar
#

yeah 😦

#

I have just 2 servers and few PIs

clear igloo
#

3560 needs moar data!

tame carbon
#

after I bought my RB4011

#

I got hooked on mikrotik

#

3 more devices got added

#

I am never going back to tplink KEKW

desert briar
#

86 day uptime

#

😄

tame carbon
#

that was a power outage, a planned one that is

desert briar
#

Meh, I dont even have a UPS

tame carbon
#

I have a UPS here, but we never really get outages

desert briar
#

all went for that 10gbit switch

tame carbon
#

mikrotiks don't like being hard-resetted

desert briar
#

I could've just used the 2 10gbit ports in the cisco switch

peak cloak
#

I need to get myself a ups

desert briar
#

but go big or go home

peak cloak
tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup as for your last comment you get on that wishlist you posted

peak cloak
#

Now with fiber

opaque stirrup
tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup media converter, any 1G SFP will work

opaque stirrup
#

could just use this lmao

desert briar
#

that cable management hurts my eyes whoa

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup Like I said, copper is easier than fiber

#

less parts

#

This is the media converter I use

opaque stirrup
#

@tame carbon yeah ill go copper just now might do fibre in the future

tame carbon
#

MC220L

peak cloak
#

@opaque stirrup tbh I would go fiber rn as it's not that much more expensive and if you use copper make sure to buy the shielded stuff for outdoors and ground it to the main electrical ground

opaque stirrup
#

if this gigabit card doesnt work in the server ill go fiber

#

its coming today lmao

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup think of it this way

#

@opaque stirrup that fiber can do 1G but also 10G, or even 100G

#

so you lay the fiber once

desert briar
#

and if you're there you can also go 10gbit as ur server uses sfp+ anyways. Gonna cost you like extra 30$

clear igloo
tame carbon
#

and can upgrade later on

clear igloo
tame carbon
#

@clear igloo oof

dusty osprey
#

what the fuck

clear igloo
#

All the gigabits 😄

tame carbon
#

@clear igloo those fibers are a mess

clear igloo
#

They were so much worse 😦

opaque stirrup
#

i might rebuild my shed then do fiber and actually put a network inside of it

#

infact i have an underground part to my house

#

i could put them inside there

tame carbon
#

@opaque stirrup thats what we had at our old house

#

we dug a hole next to the wall of the basement

#

drilled a hole into the wall

#

stuck a pipe through it

opaque stirrup
#

the attic would be too sketch

tame carbon
#

and ran that underground outside to the other building

#

@opaque stirrup lol. my networking rack is in the attic XD

#

all cables run across the roof to the other side

opaque stirrup
#

lol i was reading that some nerds got a police search as the police thought they had a drug lab

tame carbon
#

when the $isp came to check the installation before it went live

opaque stirrup
#

in there attic

tame carbon
#

they were all befuddled it was in the attic

opaque stirrup
#

but they had 3d printers and exotic animals

tame carbon
#

I dont want my room searched

#

I know pot is legal here, but still

opaque stirrup
#

im gonna speak to my dad actually and see if it would be better underneath the house

#

as its seems more weather tight than an old wooden shed

tame carbon
#

permanent wiring should be underground

#

except in america where they put fibers on poles

#

?!

Hi, I was trying to fix a problem with a virtual machine on my computer and when ever I enable VT-x in BIOS it would disable input from USB and Bluetooth devices. but when I go onto a RDP connection everything works.

I am having an issue with playing online on warcraft 3. every time i try to join a custom game this pops up

#

The weird thing is that this only happens when i am connected to my router. if i hotspot from my phone i can joingames jsut fine

#

i always rn game as administrator. I have tied to run with windows firewall off. i have opened my port forwarding 6112-6119. i have UPnP enabled

#

i also have DMZ enabled for my PCs ip address in the routers configuration

#

im curious what these configurations are in my router.

a question about mobile hotspots:
if i connect my pc to my cellphone's hotspot and download, let's say a 5gb file,
is that the same as using 5gb of my cellular data?

tame carbon

yes

thick minnow
#

okay. so using any amount of data is a 1 to 1 equivalent

tame carbon

your phone just masquerades any traffic your computer sends

eg. your ISP sees this as regular cellular traffic

thick minnow

alright. thanks for the reply!

#

@tame carbon did you see the router question I had earlier? Any tips?

tame carbon
#

@limber lion no clue

#

tplink should be banned from making routers

limber lion
#

I typically setup controls systems and networks for power plants so home stuff isn’t my forte

tame carbon
#

@limber lion home routers are shit

limber lion
#

Why’s that? Lol @tame carbon

tame carbon
#

Lacks features, implementation is buggy/incomplete

#

don't get support, don't get updates

#

etc

#

I could go on

limber lion
#

I gotcha.

dusty osprey
#

I mean it does work fine for most ppl tho :/

limber lion
#

Not for me

tame carbon
#

@dusty osprey yeah but most home users don't need special things

#

99% of home connections is a NAT and a LAN + DHCP

#

Firewall is rarely configurable

#

with the exception for NAT forwarding

dusty osprey
#

Ye home woifoi is simple actually, but for some people who are a bit complex and have few servers and stuff maybe for them, what im looking for Yeah HOMELAB if u have that then a mikroititik is pretty cheap i also want a Hex S but it's 200% overprices in my local amzn

tame carbon
#

Really?

#

60 bucks for a device with SFP connectivity

limber lion
tame carbon
#

with support for the next 5 years, 10 years security patches

#

Hex S is very well priced

#

compare that to the "top tier" consumer routers

#

those "nighthawk routers" with so many antennas it looks like a spider

dusty osprey
#

I have some dlink router like that

#

Dude

#

Best joke

tame carbon
#

are they reliable?

dusty osprey
#

gaming router

dusty osprey
tame carbon
#

they still lack in features even though they cost 200 bucks

#

lol

#

'pretty'

dusty osprey
#

I expected it to die, the connection randomly breaks at times requeing a reboot

tame carbon
#

idc how my networking stack looks

#

as long as it works

#

and reliability is more important than anything else

dusty osprey
#

i mean it kinda works exept those tomes it just dies and needs a reboot

#

:/

tame carbon
#

Yeah... that is unacceptable

dusty osprey
#

;-;

#

Can we install routeros on any computer

#

Like x86 based dell optiplex and shit

tame carbon
#

you can

dusty osprey
#

wow. Amazing

tame carbon
#

though you need to get a license

dusty osprey
#

Aah hmm

#

Yea one of my friends has asr 1004 up the rack and a mikrotik 1000$ some router he was showing me

tame carbon
#

@dusty osprey though installing this on an x86 system will be inefficient

#

since routerOS is ment for purpose-built hardware

dusty osprey
#

Then maybe some other open source router software will do if i plan to have a rack at a dc anytime :/

tame carbon
#

pfsense

dusty osprey
#

Or just buy a nice mikrotik itself 😛

tame carbon
#

but you are still constrained by the same thing

dusty osprey
#

I need the BGP functions😛

tame carbon
#

@dusty osprey rack mounted mikrotiks are superior to a rack based x86 router os server

#
#

For that cost, and the power usage it has, max 26 watt

#

it does 10gbit/s

dusty osprey
#

Sure 😛 thats what that friend had, he told me its pretty decent

tame carbon
#

no DIY server you can build, will route at that speed

dusty osprey
#

But he still uses a asr1004 for his main router

tame carbon
#

pfsense is garbage in performance

#

@dusty osprey the mikrotik flagship router has 8x 10gbit

#

costs 3000 bucks

#

routes 120 million packets/second with an effective speed of 80gbit/s

#

CRS1072

dusty osprey
#

His asr 1004 costed him 4k$ used, but that's with few of those "addon cards" which cisco has a lot of them i believ

tame carbon
#

@dusty osprey yeah those are modular platforms

#

like Juniper also sells modular routing platforms for their MX-series

dusty osprey
#

That,

tame carbon
#

fuck. how do you even configure a wireless AP on a mikrotik without CAPsMAN

#

never done it without xD

lean pebble
# tame carbon

I'm still waiting for my mikrotik hex-s and I need to replace my modem to

#

Someone have any recommendations for a good vdsl2 modem

primal ice
#

just find some cheap in your area modem that converts vdsl2 to ethernet. here in the USA 4-5 years ago the TP-link 8616 worked great - 1000% better than the ISP modem.

lean pebble
#

I'm thinking about the tplink vr600/400 as modem

lean pebble
#

Funny I bought 6 years ago netgear dm 200 modem from vendor in my country and I can't find my country in his list

primal ice
#

the netgear thing should still work. 🤷

lean pebble
#

It looks like deeper issue

#

#

At the beginning I couldn't ping my router while downloading at least now I can do it

quasi bramble
#

Can anyone point me to a good tutorial/instructions for configuring a second router downstream from the main access point?

#

I can access the nas on the main access point from the downstream router no problem but plex doesnt like the double dhcp and basically won't work for clients on the main access point

peak cloak
#

um, make sure it's an AP and not doing any NAT or DHCP

rotund sandal
#

Setting up static ip for plex? Idk

peak cloak
#

you never want double DHCP as it creates conflicts

#

1 DHCP server per L2 network

quasi bramble
#

I have nat off for the downstream router and it has a static ip on the main access point but when I change the downstream router from dhcp to static ip it always seems to lose internet connection

peak cloak
#

ip conflict?

quasi bramble
#

Its outside the dhcp pool

#

But I have the downstream router on a different subnet, do they need to be the same if I use static ip instead of dhcp?

peak cloak
#

make a diagram with everything

#

so I can understand it

#

ip's, dhcp settings, etc

#

I'll make an example

#

of my network

#

simplified

quasi bramble
#

What's vif?

peak cloak
#

virtual interface

#

VLAN

#

10.10.10.1/24 is on vlan 1010

quasi bramble
#

Ah ok, I don't have any vlan

tame carbon

@peak cloak Debating on whether doing 802.1X wired....

peak cloak
#

what's the subnet's and deafault gateway of each

#

and is the pysical wiring "chained" like you showed

#

or is it a wifi bridge

peak cloak
#

just another thing that can go wrong

tame carbon
#

@quasi bramble is that on purpose, that you have two different subnets?

@peak cloak I was digging through documents trying to find the password for their NAS shares

#

primal ice
#

heh

tame carbon
#

no password

quasi bramble
primal ice
#

eh I don't have passwords to access my shares but you can only read. if you want to writes or change anything you need a password.

quasi bramble
#

Should I change them all to 192.168.1.x?

peak cloak
#

what's the CIDR of your main DHCP server

#

the one on the modem/router

quasi bramble
#

Is that the same as subnet mask

peak cloak
#

/24 is a CIDR 255.255.255.0 is a subnet mask

quasi bramble
#

/24 then

peak cloak
#

CIDR is used as a faster way to write subnet masks

#

yeah this is all sorts of wacky

primal ice
peak cloak
#

192.168.2.1 and 192.168.0.1 are outside of 192.168.1.1/24

quasi bramble
#

I'm a total noob at networking, usually just resort to trial and error

#

Yeah I see, so if I switch it to /16 aka 255.255.0.0 that should also work?

primal ice
#

it would but you are just making a bigger mess then. :p

quasi bramble
#

Yeah lol not going for that, I'm just gonna switch to one subnet and try and lose all dhcp aside from the modem

#

Just wanted to make sure I understood

rocky badge
#

/16 tech_jesus why

peak cloak
#

you never want more than one DHCP server on a single L2 network

quasi bramble
#

Yeah I realize, just stupidly overlooked the fact that they all need the same subnet to connect via static ip instead

#

Thanks for the help! Hopefully you guys at least got a laugh out of my shitshow of a network config lol

primal ice
#

we all started somewhere.

quasi bramble
#

One more question, should the gateway for each router be the ip of the router it's a client of?

peak cloak
#

gateway is the ip of the router connected to the internet

primal ice
#

generally just one gateway for home networks.

peak cloak
#

yeah

#

usually the router that does NAT

primal ice
#

yup

quasi bramble
#

Oh okay makes sense

peak cloak
#

It is basically where all the traffic goes to get out of your NATed network @quasi bramble

#

So when your computer makes a request to an ip, the first hop is to your default gateway (aka your router connected to the WAN)

#

there is only one route

#

routers on the public internet are much more complex with multiple routes using things like bgp which I don't understand

quasi bramble
#

But there's no path from my downstream router that doesnt go through the main one before reaching the modem

peak cloak
#

how are they connected? ethernet?

quasi bramble
#

Yeah

peak cloak
#

connect it directly to your main router

#

can you run another wire

#

if not you would need to do some passthrough things

#

which not all devices support

quasi bramble
#

My "modem" is a cheap alcatel lte access point. It has wifi off and the only ethernet port goes to my main router. That router has 3 wired clients and wifi on. One of the 3 wired clients is the downstream router's wan port

#

Downstream router has wifi off and 4 clients connected to it

peak cloak
#

put the modem in passthrough mode if not already

#

only have your main router do NAT

#

and dhcp

primal ice
#

you could turn the wifi on if you wanted on the downstream router just turn dhcp off. so the main router does all the dhcp. or DHCP forwarder. that is how it is worded in dd-wrt. only other thing you would need to change is the wan port on the downstream router if you can so that its part of the switch so its not trying to NAT.

quasi bramble
#

I don't care about the wifi on the downstream router, it's in the same room as the main one. Basically just using it as a switch with nas support

#

But I'm gonna go try some of this and get back to you guys later. See if I can't get everything on 1 subnet with the modem in passthrough mode

quasi bramble

8.5Mb/s or 8.5MB/s?

tame carbon
#

@quasi bramble ideally, you'd just bridge the two networks together, disable the DHCP server on the 2nd router, use it as a switch instead

#

two NATs in series, makes port forwarding hell

My laptop can’t connect to the internet for some reason, it shows that it has a strong connection to the router, and I’ve even tried using ethernet but nothing works. I’ve turned off and on the router, turned the wifi and ethernet on and off, but nothing seems to work for me. Other devices work fine so I believe the laptop is the cause, but I don’t know what exactly went wrong
