Bizarre Network/Internet Problem

Vontech615 — Wed, 13 Jun 2012 23:02:50 +0000

Ok Experts I’ve got an interesting scenario.
I do remote support for a property management company. We have multiple remote offices in NC and SC. I have 4-5 sites that are having a problem accessing our SaaS website which is http://westminstercomp.onesite.realpage.com/ There may be more sites but these the only ones reporting problems right now. Basically, they aren’t having any problems accessing any other site but this site is extremely slow to load and sometimes doesn’t load at all. We have about 65 sites and no one else is reporting a problem.

I’ve seen this problem only 1 other time and we ended up changing the ISP there from Att (DSL) to TWC (cable) and this corrected the problem. Now the sites that I’ve worked with today all were using TWC and had a TWC modem connected to a Linksys router. A few of the routers are the same but not necessarily common models or firmware but all the exact same problem, very slow access to this site or not at all.

When I plug them directly into the modem it works ok. This is very bizarre because all the probem tickets came in around the same time, different Linksys models, different locations in NC and SC. Only common denominators Linksys routers, TWC service. I’ve ruled out the computers themselves or any settings. We had one site last week with the same problem and we replaced the router with a Zywall and this fixed the problem. My question is why would Linksys routers all of the sudden have a problem with this site? There isn’t any special settings on the router. They’re all pretty much default setup.

How to connect multiple subnets using RV042 router

Lordhowe — Sat, 19 May 2012 13:01:23 +0000

Hi all,

I’m trying to figure out a way to get multiple subnets to communicate. Here’s the scenario:

2 subnets – 192.168.101.x and 192.168.104.x

1. Router – Linksys RV042. WAN 1 port to internet, LAN port to internal network. Default Gateway with IP of 192.168.101.253. The WAN2/DMZ port is not being used currently.
2. The router connects to 2 unmanaged switches, which are simply acting as open ports to provide connectivity.
3. Multiple PC’s, printers etc. connect to the switches. All are on the 192.168.101.x subnet.
4. Cisco SGE2010P managed switch. Not configured yet, so it’s simply forwarding all traffic.
5. Win 2003 server – This server has 2 NIC’s in it. The first is configured for the 192.168.101.x subnet, the second is configured for the 192.168.104.x subnet.
5. VOIP System – The voip system has a server (ip 192.168.104.2) and another device (192.168.104.3). They currently connect to the SGE2010P switch, and there is a link cable going from that switch to one of the unmanaged switches. The voip system also has a management tool that’s installed on the win 2003 server – it connects to the second nic via the 192.168.104.x subnet.

So, my issue and what I’ve been racking my brain trying to figure out is simple….how do I get the two subnets to talk to each other??

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
1. Create a VLAN on the managed switch, and move all of the voip ports on the 192.168.104.x subnet to it. The problem here is that I can’t find a way to trunk to the RV042 router. I’m not even sure if it supports trunking….can I use the DMZ port for the trunk? I doubt it.
2. I tried enabling RRAS on the win 2k3 server. My thought was that this could act as my second router between the subnets. I enabled RIP on it to point to both subnets, and there are static routes to each network. Again, the problem comes back to the RV042…..I can enable RIP on it, but it doesn’t allow me to point it to any specific networks. I can add static routes apparently, but it will force me to disable dhcp which I don’t want to do.

I’m stuck at this point, so any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks all,
Lordhowe

Roaming Profile with Wireless Connection

Yankusbobicus — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 20:32:29 +0000

On our school network we have wireless access for the principal and the teachers who use laptop computers. The server runs Windows Server 2003 and all clients run Windows XP Pro. The school is in two different buildings and the principal and computer teacher both travel from one building to the other with their laptops. Today the principal reported that he was able to logon to the network with no problem in the Primary Building and was able to change his desktop with the changes properly saving to his profile. When he went to the Middle Building his logon time was substantially longer and his desktop did not look at all like what he has closed out of in the Primary Building. Does anyone have any thoughts on what is going on here and what I should do about it?
