Re: [slim] Slimserver User Access Restriction
All working, though shed too far from house..tried it.shed hidden in depths of gardenand signal degrades with the length of cable.about 150 feetcable tester says cable all good, though internet is intermittent at this distance...think it is the BT routerused to work with old Draytek -- addyman addyman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15380 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43147 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Slimserver User Access Restriction
There used to be devices that I knew as line drivers that would easily drive a signal over that distance. Also provided you have a common mains power circuit then maybe a Homeplug device could provide the link. If you take a look at some of the professional LAN kit such as Cisco you can find them with ethernet extender technology that will drive over the usual limit of 100m. It won't be cheap though. A trick if you can configure it might be to force communication over the cable at 10M rather than 100 as the tolerances are reduced and it may work. If you believe that the BT router is indeed less tolerant of overlength cables then you can always try experimenting by inserting a LAN switch between it and the cable, some may be more tolerant. -- Zaragon Zaragon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14577 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43147 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Slimserver User Access Restriction
My CAT5e cables are about 80m longand I get a comfortable 100Meg cct from that, can't stretch to GigE, although if I replaced with fibre no issues, just the cost of the SFPs -- MuckleEck Alasdair 3 SB3s - Linn - Acoustat - AudioEngine 2 - Cambridge Audio 640R - Mordaunt Short MuckleEck's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11301 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43147 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Slimserver User Access Restriction
Have you tried the NoSetup plugin to see if that meets your needs? Its in the PluginServerUtilities section of the wiki page on Plugins. -- ceejay ceejay's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=148 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43147 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
