Just created a network diagram for the computers still in use at my house (The other 2 laptops don't count, same with my old Dell Axim X30 624MHz PDA)

Comments Post your own as well if you have a home network

[r3volution]

LOL.....

Nice.

[APH-Alex]

Nice, here's my network:

[r3volution]

Woooooooooooooooooooooo.

AWESOME

[APH-Alex]

No kidding, it's all 256kbps down.

[darkorb]

256 down? that blows

So CHC, that File Server is just attached to the router with a ethernet cable and thats it? Thats very neat.

[chconline]

Actually it "theoretically" is a gigabit device, so I attached everything to my Gigabit switch for a full 1Gbps connection. A single cable goes to my router (a 100 mbps device) from the switch (Leaving it 7 ports remaining) - and a single cable from router to modem for a linear and single design.

Like the following:





But yeah it's a single cable, I left the file server in the basement on one of those Home Depot heavy duty racks along with my other stuff on the racks (Mainly boxes that I dont know whats inside )

Not as good as my girlfriend does.

[shc-boomer]

Nice man!

[darkorb]

hey there alex, i don't think thats very appropriate for the "Network Diagrams" thread

but chc, that is very nice, lotsa storage, convenient


can u copy stuff from your computer onto those HD's in the basement?

[chconline]

Yep, both ways -- that's what NAS (network attached storage) is for Currently I only have a single 250GB, can't afford anymore lol, and waiting for a new firmware for the Tt NAS RAID for better performance. It basically appears as a network drive in your computer and functions like a hard drive, drag and drop, etc, whatever. Full 1Gbps connection between the NAS and my desktop computers

[darkorb]

very nice

[APH-Alex]

Well, chc has a nice network nonetheless. Although we all know mine pwns, and I used the latest in anti-aliasing and tri-linear filtering for my diagram, which so pwns his.

One question though, what's with the desktop names?

[darkorb]

i can sum it up for ya

Gone = The device is faulty, and the HD's dont always show up in windows.

Creation = He created a monster machine that he loves, and is true to.

Believe = He wants to believe that this computer, will still shine, even though the "Creation" blows it away.

Faith = The faith in this computer is dying, old age, can't keep up to par with the new ones in the home.

Breakaway = Powerful as a PC, but breaking away from being held in one spot. Since, it is a laptop

had some extra time on my hands

[APH-Alex]

^Speaking of extra time, how do you secure your computer from the FBI?

[r3volution]

^ LMAO
You live in Canada.
The Canadian equivalent to the FBI ride horses and wear red suits.

[APH-Alex]

^You sure about that?

[r3volution]

I always thought the RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) do similar duties as the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation).
I'm not sure though....so don't quote me on it.

[APH-Alex]

RCMP are cops...

[ty8131990]

Yeah wouldn't that be interesting, an RCMP raid with horses. It's only ceremonial.

Anyway, "All cables leads to the basement", and nice diagram.
