Karl had posted an answer about the Linksys (under the subject line "Re: [Wlug] Wlug Digest, Vol 74, Issue 13") One comment in there I found very interesting: > Now this is going to blow your mind, but if there is ANY difference in the Workgroup name between the router and the computers, it causes the router to "restrict" bandwidth. Does this only apply to various forms of filesharing, or to all wireless traffic through the WRT54GL? I (and my housemates) are not doing big downloads, and not using Samba. Maybe one of the Windows PCs here might occasionally d/l a movie. But in experimenting with wireless here, using one or other of my Debian PCs, Tomato on the Linksys, I also thought the wireless worked rather slow, even though we have a +20MBps connection. Mostly what I was doing was browsing. Do all computers using wireless here have to belong to the same Workgroup, no matter what kind of internet traffic they're doing? If I do need a Workgroup name for the router, how do I do that? Thanks, Liz J Hi Liz What's humorous is the difference between the words "Default" and "default". Most routers may allow you to log on, but subsequent packets of data may not verify correctly, hence the speed loss. As noted by Andy, wireless always defaults to the slowest speed connected. (I seem to have a lot of neighbors that try to break in to my network and when they do at G, B or even A speed the router slows and that tells me that somethings up and I can do something about it.)

FYI WRT54GL Linksys released the *WRT54GL* in 2005 to support third-party firmware based on Linux <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel>, after the original WRT54G line was switched from Linux to VxWorks<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VxWorks>, starting with version 5. The WRT54GL is technically a reissue of the version 4 WRT54G. Cisco was sued by the FSF<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FSF_vs._Cisco>for copyright infringement, but the case was settled. [6]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#cite_note-GPLInfringemen…> Version [image: ↓] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#> CPU <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_processing_unit> speed [image: ↓]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#> RAM <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAM> [image: ↓]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#> Flash memory <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_memory> [image: ↓]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#> S/N <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_number> Prefix [image: ↓]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#> Notes [image: ↓] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#> 1.0 200 MHz 16 MB 4 MB CL7A New model line, released after the version 5 WRT54G, which returns to a Linux-based OS as opposed to the VxWorks firmware. SpeedBooster <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpeedBooster> is not enabled in stock firmware, however third-party firmware will enable the feature. The hardware is essentially the same as the WRT54G version 4.0. One alteration is that the internal numbering scheme of the 4-port switch changed in this model, from 1 2 3 4, to 3 2 1 0. 1.1 200 MHz 16 MB 4 MB CL7B CL7C As of August, 2009, this version was shipping with firmware revision 4.30.11. This pre-loaded firmware allows the user to upload a 4MB firmware image, whereas the pre-loaded firmware on version 1.0 limited the image to 3MB. Firmware version 4.30.13 is now available for both hardware versions. Fully supported by Tomato <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomato_Firmware>, Sveasoft<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sveasoft>, OpenWrt <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenWrt>, and DD-WRT<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DD-WRT> . Hardware versions affect firmware compatibility As of January 2006, most third-party firmware is no longer compatible with version 5 of both the WRT54G and the WRT54GS. The amount of flash memory in the version 5 devices has been reduced to 2 MB, too small for current Linux-based third-party firmware. (See table above for information on identifying the version based on the serial number printed on the bottom of the unit, and on the outside of the shrink-wrapped retail box.) Some users have succeeded in flashing and running a stripped down but fully functional version of DD-WRT called 'micro' on a version 5 WRT54G.[21]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#cite_note-20> [22] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#cite_note-21> An easier method not requiring any disassembly of the device has since been devised for flashing v5-v8 to DD-WRT.[23]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#cite_note-22> [24] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linksys_WRT54G_series#cite_note-23> To support third-party firmware, Linksys has re-released the WRT54G v4, under the new model name *WRT54GL* (the 'L' in this name allegedly stands for 'Linux'). It is also possible to replace the 2MB flash chip in the WRT54G with a 4MB flash chip. The Macronix International 29LV320BTC-90 is a suitable part although others may work as well. The user must first install a JTAG header <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JTAG_header> and use a JTAG cable to backup the firmware,then replace the chip and restore the firmware with the JTAG cable. After testing for proper functionality of the modified unit,3rd party firmware can be flashed using the JTAG cable and a suitable image file. Now this is going to blow your mind, but if there is ANY difference in the Workgroup name between the router and the computers, it causes the router to "restrict" bandwidth. Crazy, but true. Also make sure your hardware all matches. (802,11B, G, N) Have you tried disabling DHT and NOT forwarding UDP? (In case it's a memory issue) Just my two cents....

Mounting Windows Shares on Solaris
by Chuck Noyes Dec. 15, 2009

Dec. 15, 2009

Hi All, Maybe a bit [OT], but I've got a Solaris 10u8 host, and I'd like to be able to mount a Windows share on the Solaris box. I don't think Solaris supports the smbfs or cifs file systems (at least I can't find any evidence of it). So a command like: "mount -F smbfs //windows-host/share /mnt" won't work. Has anyone done this? I've installed all the samba executables in /usr/bin and in /usr/sbin on the Solaris box, so there is samba support in Solaris, but I can't seem to mount the Windows share. TIA, -Chuck

GnuPG Documentation
by Gary Hanley Dec. 7, 2009

Dec. 7, 2009

My head hurts! Can anyone help? :-) I'm googling like crazy but for the life of me can not find any information on the values of the usage flags displayed in GnuPG when you --edit-key and list. For example (from a website): pub 4096R/7C11053D created: 2009-10-12 expires: never usage: SC trust: ultimate validity: ultimate sub 4096R/55D59203 created: 2009-10-12 expires: never usage: E Maybe it's obvious but does anyone know the value of "SC" and "E". And, how about the value of all potential flags? My problem involves other flags. I assumed I could find this in 30 seconds. No go. I can't find anything about key details. So any help would be appreciated. Thanks! -- Gary

Ok, ill use my android for this one. Nix based I'm sure you know. Anyway my newest projects include an openbsd firewall. Either a free or open bsd server for private and a few friends use.

Looking for monitor
by John Stoffel Dec. 2, 2009

Dec. 2, 2009
