I was under the impression that powerline kits don't work AT ALL when used with surge protectors/power strips. It could be different for your product but you will want to defer to the manual that...

Actually its a Juniper SRX branch firewall with a real world (IMIX) throughput between 300-400 Mbps, thats not the problem - :-)

Prior to that I had a Cisco ASA 5505, and prior to that I had one...

I pay for the bottom tier basic internet from TimeWarner in my area, its terribly slow, its supposed to be 15 Down / 1 UP, but its more like at most 3 Down / 120K UP at any given time. Fortunately,...

You could always add google's DNS servers to your network configuration as a backup in case your ISP's DNS servers are having issues. I know just recently my wife was trying to browse certain sites...

I recently installed LFTP to test out its multi-segmented (if thats the right verbage) file transfers but upon initiating a file transfer with the "pget -n 10 <filename>" command it only ends up...

So you went on vacation and when you came back it now can't connect. Sounds like you might have experienced a power outage at your house over the weekend possibly and when everything came back up,...

To carry multi-vlan traffic to one host, its switch port (on the HP switch) must be configured as a trunk and each vlan must be allowed on that port. I'm not sure how you even got that "kind of"...

It should be able to use netbios but my experience is that Linux won't find the windows computer name on the network that way. Not unless you edit your host file and add an entry with its name-to-ip...

Nevermind, I just uninstalled Chrome to be done with it. I've researched and many people are having this issue but there is no fix.

Sounds like you want something like a Google ChromeCast. Its just a little dongle that plugs into your TV's HDMI port and streams whatever you throw at it like a media collection on a PC elsewhere...

Hey guys,

I've been mainly using firefox for all my web browsing needs but I wanted to give google Chrome a try. Unfortunately, I am running into issues with it where at any time, whether I'm...

I recently connected to a wireless dot1x network using an ubuntu 12.04 laptop, but i changed my authentication drop down to Protected EAP (PEAP) since that's what the connection dictates to use. I...

I have this problem as well as I use a 90 gig Kingston SSD as my primary OS drive but I'm running 12.04 LTS. It doesn't happen all the time, and when it does it seems pretty harmless, i just login...

You won't be able to resolve the name of the Linux machine from the Windows box because Windows uses its own name-resolution protocol to find other Windows machines on the network, Linux doesn't know...

Sounds like they're doing 802.1x over the wireless which does use a Certificate. I've never connected an ubuntu wireless client to an 802.1x wireless network, but I imagine it should authenticate...

I own some netgear powerline kits, and they work great as long as both endpoints are in the same room even though that sort of defeats the purpose of having them. My home is relatively new, only 4...

If you're just connecting the two PC's together with a crossover cable for a fast direct file transfer setup, just manually configure each computer with an IP in the same subnet, and to make it fool...

Glad to hear it. I did a quick search for ubuntu hotspot and I found the following article about it. Pretty slick, I didn't know Ubuntu could do that.....the only bad part I see is that for the AD...

Are you trying to run multiple vlans on your machine over one physical interface, that's what it looks like as each entry as "raw device eth0" specified. Can I ask why you're doing this or what...

I've never set up an Ad Hoc network before but with the setup you're proposing, Ubuntu would need something like Windows ICS (internet connection sharing) enabled. I don't know anyone who has ever...

Well I took your advice, went into terminal and launched putty from there using "gksu putty", then authenticated, then opened ttyUSB0 via the serial option in Putty and it worked. Thanks again!

Here's the output of the syslog from when I plugged in the usb to serial adaptor:

user@localhost:~$ tail /var/log/syslog
kernel: [3730896.303216] usb 2-1.5.1: new full-speed USB device number 16...

I have a handful of USB to Serial adaptors that I'd like to use on my Ubuntu system since I have quite a few cisco/juniper lab devices that I would love to access the console on through Ubuntu, but...

Also, Gparted still shows the disk as sdc1, but I couldn't get it to work until I edited fstab to use "sdc" instead of "sdc1".
