Also, you should be able to limit simultaneous client connections with your firewall and pass the traffic in a syn proxy state. There are numerous ways to achieve this. On 07/29/2013 03:18 AM, Michael D. Wood wrote: You can always compile from source ;) What version of Apache are you running

The new wireless router is configured the same way as your old router was? As in, the same network configuration and I'm assuming the server you have Apache running on has a static ip in the same network? Not much that has to change - port forward to your server running Apache. What are you
