3 TopicsCannot ping Router WAN port from NetGear Switch
Hi, Everyone, I have a managed NetGear Switch M4350. The set up is easy, as follows. Host PC 10.10.10.9, there is only one VLAN on switch (10.10.10.1), and every port is its member. Router is a random consumer router with WAN port set with static ip 10.10.10.102, and it has port forwarding to a LAN device. The router allows ping on the WAN port. However, I could still not ping 10.10.10.102 with the NetGear Switch. I tried: ping WAN port of the router from PC with PC directly connected to the router -> works ping another static IP static 10.10.10.103 from switch -> works swap the switch with an unmanaged switch and ping 10.10.10.102 from PC -> works change the router to another model, do the same configuration -> ping doesn't work So for me it really feels like the combination of the router WAN port and managed switch makes pinging not work. Can someone shed some light on this? Thanks in advance!Solved62Views0likes3CommentsNeed help setting up site to site VPN. Nothing works.
I've gone through every tutorial I can find online along with following every bit of documentation and I still cannot get site to site VPN working between these two identical routers. Both sites have static IPs. Is anyone available to help me out? Thanks!1.4KViews0likes2CommentsReadyNAS 314 slow 10mb/s read / write
I just got and installed a RN 314 on my home network and I'm getting really slow read/write speeds. I'm testing with Black Magic Disk Speed Tester and getting about 10mb/s read and write. I'm hoping someone can point out a flaw in my setup, so here it is: 2015 Macbook Pro Linksys E1200 router with dd wrt installed ReadyNAS 314 with two 4tb HDDs in X-RAID WD 4tb 5400rpm Green in slot 1 WD 4tb 7200rpm Black in slot 2 All cabling is Cat5e I've tried swaping out the cables for different ones to no avail. I've also tried transferring a large file (~5GB) from a Win 7 PC that is also connected via ethernet to the router and got the same results. When I look at the Network tab on the NAS admin page, it says my bandwidth is 100mb/s, not the preferable 1000mb/s. Now, I know enough about networking to get myself in trouble, but not always enough to get out. I'm thinking my router is probably the issue here, but I just want to make sure before I go out an buy a new one. If it is my router, and I do need to get a new one to improve speeds, I am interested in getting one capable of Ethernet teaming with the NAS. (I do a ot of photo editing and I would like a fast connection) I've been scoping the Netgear Nighthawk X8, but i'm not really too excited to go dop that much cash. Another solution I've been pondering is just getting a 1000mb/s capable switch and sticking that inbetween my NAS and computers and having my (possibly) slow router hang off the side. Are there any switches that support Ethernet teaming? Thanks in advance!Solved
