New Router For Web Site

| 0 comments

I run two LAN’s at home for the two static ip.addresses. I use and I put D-Link’s new Gaming Router on one LAN to cut down on my switches/hubs I’m using on my LAN’s and improve my overall LAN speeds.
Most systems I have are multi-homed with dual NIC’s. I have the two most recent systems with two 1 GB NIC’s this will speed up my LAN transfers when backing up or moving data across my LAN, especially my mp3’s for redundant copies.
The reason this should help is the new router has 4 1gb LAN ports that coupled with my Linksys 5 port gigabit switch will up the transfer speeds on at least one leg of my systems.
My web server is also on this LAN with only one NIC.
I will upgrade the other LAN to 1 GB when I acquire some more 1 GB NIC’s. The next router I get I would really like a nice Cisco 8 port router but I will see where my expenses are when that time comes
Oh yes I also briefly took down the site to place a new keyboard and mouse on that system. No big deal right? Well it is when you are late at night configuring files and code in files and your keyboard is spitting out multiple characters all of the time. I’m not a great typist anyway and that was an extra burden late at night when I’m working on something.
All looks cool for now!
