exclusively buy off eBay when it comes to servers. Lots of Dell/IBM/Etc.

Hey Steven,
I upgraded one of our apex links this morning and its been fine all day in
the wild pushing about 50Mb.
I have a few questions to compare with you though, I emailed Trango tech
support but I never heard anything back. Maybe I have the wrong email, its
like they never get them??
I'm looking for an inexpensive outdoor netcam. Inexpensive because
funds are slim as I rebuild the network I just bought. I need it
because a tower of mine was vandalized today.

You really get what you pay for on these. The cheap IP cams are mostly too
crummy to get anything other than a vague, pixelated image at the distance
you'd probably have to mount the camera. You mught take a look at Vivotek
which we've found to be pretty good at the lower end of the market.
