I'm keen, JHB North (midrand)

Thanks!

Hi Folks, thought it well to introduce myself, Ted's the name. Been here for a good while, done some deals, but never officially announced my presence on this particular thread. Is there a place where we can show off our systems, maybe get some input?

If not only immediate notion of his passing, it is definitely the heartfelt messages here that are tearing me up. I was introduced to Guillaume by Dewald, to help out with a spare set of tweeters, as with many others, it ended up being a long chat and a demo introducing me to the Talking...

I've got a contact in PTA for macbook battery replacements as well, charged me 1700 with installation for an early 2011 macbook pro. No issues thusfar. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just bought an early 2011 13" Macbook Pro from a friend, popped in a new battery, bought a charger off takelot.com, and upgraded to a decent SSD, that thing is running better than anything else windows based that I could've bought new for the money I spent, which was around R4900 in total...

It's not an extender, in the sense that it uses a set ot antennae to "backhaul" (whichever gives best connectivity) and the rest for access, if they're near enough, it can backhaul on 5.xGhz, which is fast. Secondly, although it's pricy, it's fool-proof. And you can add up to 10 of these to one...

What cable are you using between the fibre termination and Amplifi Router? Cat6? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The physical internet going down caused by plugging in certain devices sounds like a firmware issue on the tp-link. There is no correlation to why it should happen otherwise, as the modem side is not related to the switching/routing side in the sense of the connection being up or not. Do you...

Have you checked the cable linking the switch and the router, if it freezes or bombs out when connecting the cable, it could be a crimping or earthing issue of sorts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Depends on how much you want to spend. I'd suggest looking at Ubiquiti, especially their enterprise range, Unifi. Pair it with a "USG" (Unifi Security Gateway) for routing and firewalling. And potentially a Unifi PoE switch, and of course some dual band AP's. I recommende the AC Lite or LR...

I've got them for gym, would definitely recommend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Repeaters are a nightmare. Not only does the law of RF mean that throughput halves everytime a signal "hops", it also means added latency. The repeater also repeats on the same channel as the router, thus creating interference and dropped packets. Repeaters are ideally used where signal strength...

Second this. Will make a world of difference. 120gb sits around R450 now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
