@jaredbusch I wasn't suggesting me... Maybe he is close with someone in the community he would trust...

Why would you expect a cloud service to work without authentication? Internal only or not.

Why would I expect it to work with out 'auth'

It worked out of the box, I enabled it on the ReadyNAS, installed the iOS app, and connected.

After the update(s) - now it forces you to sign into NETGEAR - ....

Why would you expect a cloud service to work without auth.

I am not arguing that it did work.

lol - the ultimate in ransomware protection. watch they don't raise prices, that's a premium feature

@NerdyDad said in WiFi range extender requires wifi...:

Cabling: One aspect of home networking that is far too often overlooking is implementing a quality cabling plant inside the home. This requires far more effort than other home networking projects and falls more into the electrician space rather than the IT professional space but is also one of the most important pieces from the home owner perspective and end user perspective rather than the IT pro perspective. A good, well installed cabling plant will make a home more attractive to buyers and make the value a powerful home network even better.

What an excellent reference 🙂

The next IoT device to add to the botnet

Yup. Get a DVR and use a VPN or SSL not something that uses their online service...

I don't have a problem with using someone's online service as long as my device doesn't need to be published through my own router. Sure if the vendor gets hacked, the hackers could use that connection to try to get back into my network, but I'm a soft target compared to the vendor's network.

Not really.. Not when there's millions of those devices to uses in a DDoS. You all become part of the plan.

I get what you're saying, but normals want remote access their DVRs and setting up access through a cloud provider that then has a secure connection to the DVR is way better than normals trying to setup and maintain VPNs, etc.

Or people could be content to miss whatever it is. 😉 I'm sure people will live and civilisation continue if DVR's and other toys aren't accessible outside home LANs 🙂

While it's true that people would learn to cope, but the cat's already out of the bag. Unless ISPs start blocking outbound traffic, you can't stop someone from doing this. Plus there are already probably millions of those things out there, it's not like people are just going to give them up tomorrow if they saw the news and realized they were partly to blame for these types of problems.

I do wish that ISPs were the tiniest bit more altruistic and would take a list from the forensic analysis of large attacks like this and at minimum send emails to their customers who's IP was on the list of those participating in the attacks.
AND while it's much less effective now considering the number of IoT devices available to attack with real IPs, I wish ISPs would drop outgoing packets that have forged return addresses.

Stupid Fing wireless AP giving me a hard time for nothing....

I swapped the AP's from the two areas, "the one that had issues", came up and worked, no changes.

Put the other in place of the one with issues and it works without any changes.

What the heck...

ROFL. The gremlins are out to get you today.

Man, I need to grab a picture of me petting my cat. She's a calico that looks like Gizmo when scratching behind the ears.

Almost any NAS can do iSCSI a SAN is simplier than a NAS..

Exactly, but a few scale outs don't because of the scale out aspect.

Thanks!

Or in a hotel room, maybe?

Maybe... although I would prefer that most hotels get decent wireless then a switch.

This wouldn't be that bad for travel either, although there are smaller more effective ways to do this.

yeah as long as they enable WPA and just post the password everywhere, please!

That 3220 is getting to a much better price point. Very competitive with used* gear now and you get a warranty!

*for small shops

Looking at a 4 bay compared to the 2 bay....

I like the options of the 312 series.. but don't have the funds for a 4 bay unit. This is for personal use at home....

Awesome 🙂 I want free stuff too

I don't know who will be reviewing these..

I like my S3300-28G. The two 10GBase-T ports on the switch are nice to have.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

@mdgm welcome, awesome to see Netgear here in the community!

I've had bad luck with Netgear over the years. plus I don't need more sales calls haha.

Really? I've never gotten a sales call from them and I've used them since 1997 ish. I've had one or two of their lower end units die, but at the price I paid that was still a pretty big win.
