@LanceRoberts I'd like to set it up like that but my router's ports are broken so I don't think I can do it. I'd have to buy a new router
Right now isn't a great time in my life to go shopping... new car just got hit while sitting in my gated parking lot waiting to be insured. Laptop died from lightning. Router died from lightning. DVD player died from lightning. Might take a while to replace it all
then again... I just remembered I might have an old netgear 802.11b router laying around. That would only need to pass through a small number of mbps because its just going to the internet right?
the rest of the network traffic would go through the switch
Ok, is it a router that only routes or will it do DHCP for you?
If it will do DHCP then you don't need the switch, you can just get wireless net cards for the computers. So you either buy them or you buy a new router.
@Fosco True, true. But when you run a SaaS company, try explaining that to your customers ;-)
I suppose that is the upside of it happening around 8am, better than in the middle of the day, maybe less people noticed... then again everyone was probably checking their email. I'm surprised I only got as many calls as I did, actually
>A typical SLA might state something like "99.99% uptime." When you do the math ... that allows them 52.59 minutes of downtime per year. ...given how low the penalties are, a lot of network providers just started advertising 100% uptime.
They don't actually believe that they can provide 100% uptime, but they're only paying a few pennies for every minute of downtime. It's just marketing.
yeah that's always the thing, they just have to pay for downtime (what else can they guarantee?).. it is unfortunate to not be in control of the issue..
@Lance: be aware that GM tends to not update the include/exclude list when you update the script. So if it didn't allow SE sites when first installed, you may have to uninstall+reinstall (or manually edit the include list) to get it to fire.
@TheUnhandledException All of it. Of course you got most of the easy bugs first and just have that one hard one last; that's what makes them easy and hard, respectively.
@PopularDemand Yeah, I see what you're saying. Doesn't make it less frustrating when the client's breathing down my boss' neck, who returns the favor to me :-)
not sure i'll have time to look at it tonight. apparently my brother's computer has crashed and the repair function from the windows disc doesn't fix it
who is the winner. What do you think about that?
