I ran network cable (cat6) throughout my house and put on all the ends and the wall plugs and guess what?!?

IT WORKS

Of course this subjects you to more of Banana's inane ravings, but I'm pretty excited none the less. :lol:

Rack you hun and way to go :d

nice to have gigabit all over the place. now you need to put some terabyte of storage down your basement a sattelite uplink, a cryptographic server (to issue your own certificates), ideally a radius server to create some strong wifi neighboorhood, DAT backup, dvd burners double layers, don't forget too to set up some essential services like VPN, FTP, Web server (apache 1.3.x or die). Run everything under some strong bsd (freebsd).

ah don't forget the coffee machine.
:lol:

ps : hello V. nice to see you back ! how are you ?

Rack ??? wouldn't a cable-less network with a security be easier ?

well considered that wifi isn't that secure on the long term cables stays best solution;you have to change regularly the password on Wifi as even with good security you can guess the password if you intercept enough traffic (you have to monitor something like 5-10 gb and you can do some statiscal approach to find some equivalent code).
Disabling DHCP allocation and MAC address filtering and not using the ip range that the router gives you in standard (192.168.1.x) but some other range (like a class A or B private) is a good start.
Cables remains useful as the current bandwitch is still a little bit low on WiFi (CAT6 you can acheive theorical gigabyte transmission).

I think that I have lost more people right now.

Moon base...end transmission.
