    Complications of Router Usage?

    RE-READ MESSAGE...CISCO 806 cost under $600. The 806 is running release 12 of the Cisco IOS. FYI: Switches work at the Network Layer (3) with IP addresses and switches work at Data Link Layer (2) with mac addresses based the OSI Model. You may be thinking of QOS or VLANs which work at uppper...

    3COM NIC Problem -- SOLVED!

    Every 3COM card has a model number printed on it in yellow. The model is something like 3C509 or 3C905B. This model number is near the top of the card.

    Is hitting the reset button on every bootup bad for my computer?

    Ever hear the term "HEAD CRASH" relating to a hard drive failure. I don't think OC your computer to the point of it not properly booting is worth it (nor the cost of replacing hard drives) let alone I can't believe it plays games without crashing either. FYI: Your hard drive is just starting to...

    Complications of Router Usage?

    CISCO offers routers that operate off the full configurable IOS for less than $600, not $10K (try $250 if you are a enrolled in the CISCO NetAcad). I know that Insight (www.insight.com) was offering the CISCO 806 for $500 about half a year ago. It only has 10BaseT (but full duplexed) ports but...

    I have an IP question

    R0b0tN1k: Ah, I didn't see that, (and still don't) I think what he means by "share one IP address" is that is REALLY is sharing one IP, I think he has all of his workstations using the same IP and just turning them on and off. At anyrate I think he is long gone.

    I have an IP question

    To answer your question: YES (I assume you are trying to share a single IP between two or more computers) It is call NAT (Network Address Translation). In the network world ther are two basic types of IP address ranges called Routeable and Nonrouteable (also called Private IP addresses)...

    Honda RC450...a threat?

    Radeon AIW or Asus V7100 DELUXE COMBO

    Greetings All, This is really one area that ATI really "shines" in. I didn't read the review but I can't imagine that Asus can offer a products that does video in/out using composite and s-video inputs, video capture and dvd capabilities. Plus ATI has been in this video capture stuff...

    Is there any good, free network layout software?

    Shadow, Well, it took me about 2 minutes to find it (your not a full time student by any chance are you)...you may be able to buy this for about $25.00 through your school (college or tech college, I don't think K12 students can buy it). Here is the site for the demo...

    Is there any good, free network layout software?

    You can download a 60 day eval of VISIO from Microsoft (yep, Microsoft owns them now, the Borg of the computer galaxy). Pretty easy to use for basic operation. Might as well learn a "industry standard". Hope this helps. H.A.R.M

    ATI Radeon 32MB DDR or Geforce MX 32MB?

    ss284: YES, I have both cards, read my earlier post about the 3DMARKS. YES, a lonely MX card with SDR is faster than a Radeon DDR (I know, I had both cards). I blame part of this on ATI and there driver development team (anyone from ATI reading this post, hint, hint). I agree in theory that the...
