![]() ![]() In fact, ASO from the model number means Advanced Small Office. It appears that this was quite the powerful thing for a premise with multiple phone lines.typically a small office. You have a Leviton Distribution Panel, 47606-ASO: I guess no one actually looked at the picture and instead rapidly dived into debating loosely relevant things. Wired will always out perform wireless, regardless of how much bandwidth the wireless is capable of. If you are near a wireless network that is using the same channel as you, your devices are also competing with devices on that other network for air time. Now multiply that by the number of devices on your network. Device: Hey access point, are you still there? Access Point: Yep, still here. Once joined, the device will call out to the access point every few seconds. When a wireless device comes on the network, it must join an access point. Wireless also has a lot of extra traffic over a switch due to control traffic. But we also have the added interference from nearby wireless networks from your neighbors, hotspots, some TV and streaming device radios, the wifi toaster, etc. So now we start having higher latency due to wait times, collisions, and re-transmits. All the devices can hear all the others, but only one can transmit at a time. Latency goes down because there can now be multiple conversation going on at the same time. So if device1 needs to talk to device2, that traffic does not interfere with the conversation between device3 and device4. Switches know what device is on what port. This caused both computers to stop talking and wait a period of time and try again. There was also a lot of collisions, which is when more than one computer tried to talk at the same time. Bandwidth stayed the same but latency went up due to wait times. Since only one computer at a time can talk, everyone else had to wait until the line was clear before they could talk. A packet came in one port and was repeated on all the other ports. In the early days we used hubs where all the computers plugged into the switch. The job will get done faster with the wheelbarrow because there is more capacity per trip. The wheelbarrow holds more than the bucket, that is the bandwidth. You walk at the same pace while carrying a bucket or pushing a wheelbarrow. You can either use a 5 gallon bucket or a wheelbarrow to move the dirt to the garden. Let's say you are building a garden in the back yard and have two yards of dirt delivered to your driveway. Latency is how long it take to get from here to there. Speed is a combination of latency and bandwidth. It would just keep accessing the crappy main router signal, although there is a stronger signal a couple of feet away.Bear with me a bit while I talk about some networking concepts and history. ![]() I tested this once with an older router and noticed that the devices would not automatically switch from main router to repeater. ![]() Should I get a second ASUS RT-N66U? It's pricy. So is my best bet to improve WiFi in the back of the house (bedrooms) to just put another router connected via ethernet port to main router and make it act as a repeater? I am happy that I had her tested for lead in the blood at 1 yr and there were no traces of it! Just to be extra conservative, I had the painters use the lead-encapsulant material in the bedrooms as I have a very young daughter. Yes the walls are plaster and lath (with no metal on that I have noticed).ĭon't know how many times lead paint might have been applied, but it's also an assumption that there is lead paint because of age of the house. I'd be concerned a lot more about chicken wire and plaster (or even plaster and lathe, but chicken wire and lathe is the worst other than maybe concrete and rebar). More than nothing, but the same could be said of anything. In the end it is really going to impact wifi all that much. You aren't talking about layers of lead foil, but particles of lead suspended in the matrix of the paint. The paint isn't solid lead, it is a tiny fraction of it lead used to enhance the color/brilliance. Most likely only 1-3 layers are going to be lead based with later layers being oil/latex based. Obviously sometimes less and sometimes more. Typical seems to be a repainting about once every 10-12 years. I've seen as thick as about 3/64" of an inch of paint as a typical "bad" setup, but that has generally been on homes dating more to the early 1900's, not from the 1940s. Based on my previous experience though, it isn't all that bad usually. At any rate, as for how many layers, obviously we have no idea. ![]()
