I see them installing the blue and orange piping next to the road all the time. How does that install work? Is that tubing that they connect together and then install the actual fiber later or is the fiber already in there? I know there are some guys here on the board that know the process, how...
The cat5 cable run outside and/or the coax from your ISP is causing the issue. If I had to guess is is the outside cat5 cable is the one causing you your problems. Just setup surge arresters on both ends of the cat5 run that goes outside. One near the computer and one at the router/switch. This...
I am looking for a SFP device like the one below. We would like to keep the cost on this project on the low side. Has anyone used third party SFP devices? Can you recomend me a company that you think makes a reliable one, if there is such a thing.
Cisco GLC-LH-SM...
FYI...it is HIPAA, not HIPPA. I think HIPPA may be a female hippo...lol ;)
PS...I sure hope you are not entering medical record info via wireless!!

Stop being so cheap and get the CAT6!! You may think 5e is fine for now, but in five years when you go to sell it will be outdated. If you had 6 you would be all set to 10G. It will take a while for 10G to make it to household use, but you will be ready. With the way technology is these days you...
I did forget one thing, my rack depth can only hold a switch ten or so inches deep. That will narrow my choices a lot and most likely push me away from the layer 3 switches. I found a current model HP 1810G-24 for a good price. That looks like everything I want minus the layer 3, though it is...
I am looking for a new gigabit switch for my home network. The switch needs to have minimum of 24 ports and they should all be gig. I would like it to be able to handle VLAN's and possible have some layer 3 capabilities and do jumbo frames. Yes, I know I am asking for a lot, but this is not your...
Sounds to me like they took a power hit down the networking cable. Could have been from the NIC on the DC that went bad. There would happen to be any cabling that goes outside?
John
How many times I have heard that...lol! Funny thing these are the companies that have the most messed up setups. Get a consultant in there to straighten things up the correct way. In the long run it will cost your company more if they try and be cheap now.

I vote for a PDA/Smartphone with the wrong password. I happens all the time at our place. The phone hits the servers mutiple times in a row locking out there accounts in seconds.
John
Just an idea...I would check the actual port for physical damage. I had a person plug try to plug in an rj11 into a port one time. They bent the first and last pins on the port. the port would still do 10-100, but no gig, since gig uses all the pairs.

You might want to make sure whatever carrier you are tethering too you have a data plan that allows it. Most carriers will not care if it small amount of data usage, though if you start to pull a lot they can ding you. Usually the bils are crazy expensive, since they charge by the amount of data...
Agree 100%!! We often take the offending emails and send them out as examples to educate the users. At this point I still feel were are open, just takes one user. i want to add to our protection, even if it is a simple solution.
John
Unfortunately, we dont have a web proxy box. Our spam filters are using reputation lists and blacklists so we have that covered. they are just not fast enough to keep up with the changes in the phishing emails.
We do educate the user's, but that doesnt mean they are always going to do what we...
Subscriptions are current. Here is an example of the email below. This one is asking for a reply. No use in blocking the sending IP since it is likely a hacked machine. They are just so generic, how can you block it without catching other legit emails?
John
----------------------------...
We have a Barracuda 400. Trust me this emails are very vague and don?t have any signatures to them to block. We would definitely block legitimate emails if we got more aggressive with the filters.
John
I know this is not a networking question, though I thought that you may have some ideas about this issue. We are having issues at work with spam that is requesting the users to click a link and enter their username and password or reply back to an email with that info. The emails are constantly...
Well, when someone says free wifi and medical office in the same post you have to be worried! I am guessing you are most likely storing some form of medical records on that office network correct? Since most Blackberries and PDA/Phones already have data services I would just forget the free wifi...
You may want to check out jungledisk. They are an online backup service. The software and space are pretty cheap. The software does a full backup intially, but then only changes later, thus saving bandwidth. Another great feature is they allow you to setup the encryption on your end of the...
I am guessing they setup the Dynex router to serve up the IP's via DHCP. Since you are having some clients getting the 169 addresses it is possible that you are out of leases on the Dynex unit. I would check to make sure they max number of leases is set a high as possible ans see if you are...
I may have an easier solution for you. I have the same issue with the Windows 7 x64. I have not tried it yet, but it should work in Windows 7 x64 and is free.

Is there any way to do a lookup from the internet and find what server actually gave the DNS response? We are having intermittent DNS resolution issues and I think it is being caused by an extra server that is not ours in a forwarding list on the root domain.
John
I used to do the BYOD with an Asterisk server. My reliability was good, but I feel that I have no issues at all using the provided Linksys PAP. I am real happy with Viatalk!!
Server I am connected too:

I dont make international calls, so I dont know about that, though I have never had any of the other issues you mentioned. For me they have been excellent!
John
Checkout the Laptop and Desktop backup option to BackupExec. You drop the client on the desktop or laptop and it backs up to th server the specified folder/files as they are created. It even allows you to specify revisions to be kept. I use it and it works great! Then you just run your...
I was referring to the settings on the server and not the client. So when you connect from a client machine to the VPN and do a ipconfig /all you see your internal DNS server listed on the PPTP connection? If so how are you trying to get to your network shares? Do you try to get to them via a...
