Clarkson wanted that particular porsche for sentimental reasons. Add in the fact that there was only two V8 manual versions for sale and the one they chose was the better of the two left Clarkson and Top Gear little choice. It would appear that in Britain you can't change the plates on your car so they had No alternative fake plate that they never had a chance to put on.... Argentina is just acting like a high school bully picking fights with the UK and Chile over islands

LTT Think Tank for New Modem Router and Switch
Optimus Prime replied to Optimus Prime's topic in Networking
hahahahah, Telstra upgrading hahahahahaha I'll try but NBN rollout is taking forever -
I use them... More convenient and flexible than flux. I can't install flux on my work computer, nor on my friends and families devices I would recommend them.

Except that's the one that has gone and cooked itself. Felt like it was hot enough to cook and egg on..... Also I need to search for Dsl modems... It appears that Dsl means rj11 and adsl means rj45 Even though we're paying for adsl2+ internet??? -

Plug RJ45 cable from splitter into the Ubiquity, run switch and r700 from the Ubiquity and bobs ya uncle? Apologies but it's seems like the internet has completely died on Christmas eve and I am on my phone -

Question I'm seeing 1 x WAN (or 2 x WAN) listed on the modem/modem routers but I am unable to tell whether it's an RJ11 or RJ45 port. Is there a way to tell? Are they're converters? -

Optimus Prime replied to Optimus Prime's topic in Networking
I just need a set up that can handle my potential use case. Once it's plugged up and running I want to just leave it to it's thing. Reliability Consistent throughput for multiple devices This is so much above my current skill base, I feel so lost ahahahahaaha -
LTT Think Tank for New Modem Router and Switch
Optimus Prime replied to Optimus Prime's topic in Networking
Yeah, I appreciate you looking into this for me. It seems like as your said Draytek and Cisco are the highest tier DSL modems you can buy Than you have your Asus, Netgear and TP Link below it. What are the benefits of getting a Draytek or Cisco modem over a cheaper ASUS or TP-Link? Will the more expensive option provide better service, ie higher multiple user throughput before bottlenecking? Reliability? -

Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Pro 8-port Router doesn't appear to have a RJ11 port? This is why I hate networking -

Optimus Prime replied to Optimus Prime's topic in Networking
The R700 doesn't have any lan ports Yep, ADSL compliant modem Multiple Cisco and Netgear failures. We've had them die randomly, overheat and melt and one even physically popped So how about this? Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Pro 8-port Router + Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch 24 Port PoE+ Gigabit Switch + Ruckus R700 Would that work? Any reconsiderations -

Thoughts Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Pro 8-port Router connected to a Ruckus R700? (Hardline) (Wireless) Would that work? -
LTT Think Tank for New Modem Router and Switch
Optimus Prime replied to Optimus Prime's topic in Networking
The internet is ADSL2+ so that would make it an RJ11 connection than CISCO and Netgear are not brands I am interested in as they are the brands that I have had the most troubles with I am completely overhauling the networking capability of my home. That means new modem & router Yes I screwed up and called it a WLAN instead of an ADSL RJ11 Port, like I said new to networking and I dislike it from my current perspective Linksys WRT1900AC didn't do so favourably in the test compared to the R700. My home environment closes resembles the torture test The Ubiquiti option looked quite nice Yes I hate it, it's complicated and temperamental, at least from my perspective -

I want to spend to hard earned money on a superior networking infrastructure. I don't want gold plated external casings but I am after performance that meets or exceeds the torture test that Linus used for the R700 review. I wish I knew more and didn't have to ask these questions as I am sure they come up so often. 2K is the limit on my credit card. I have savings but I would rather repay a credit card off and get it as soon as possible than wait a couple of weeks to organise the monies. I have grown tired of consumer grade hardware dieing after only 6 - 12 months of usage Also I thank you for your recommendation -

No idea what the difference is for the RJ question My use case closely resembles the torture test used for the R700 Router placement will be downstairs against the back wall and slighly to the right of dead center (non negotiable )
