My pc is used for everything, listening to music, playing games, making movies of games (if you want some of them, just say so...), making images, word processing just about everything...

Pam's PC is used as a place to backup all my useful stuff like .mp3's images, game saves my movies, irriplaceable downloads (ie hard to find), i also play doom, spacehulk, and other such games cos pam's pc is too crap play any games that have come out since the year 2000 very well. when i eventually get a net connection it'll also be used as a flack monkey ie. i'll connect to the net through it, just like old times...

my lovely laptop is used to play duke nukem 3d, doom and space hulk vengeance of the blood angels, and stream music off my pc via the wi-fi card...ineed to get bigger hard drive, more ram and i need to paint it, before i'll take to any wifi hotspots.

i have a duron pc project planned and anoither mini itx rig planned but they, and i will also repair my old mobo, but these other free rigs future are all down to whether i get a job...

Slight modification to network setup...

Diagram here (800x524 pixels, 69k, correct as at 2005-10-16)

Connection to ISP is 100Mbps cable, fed directly by an RJ45 cable to my apartment, with 5 public IP addresses.
(Red connections in the diagram indicate the "dirty" network which touches the Internet.)

Web server, main PC and secondary PCs have public IP addresses via DHCP from a connection through a D-Link DGS1005D gigabit switch using 100Mbps onboard LAN connections.
(These machines are also connected by a private LAN through a SMC8508T gigabit switch using NetGear gigabit NICs.)

D-Link DI-624+ wireless router takes up another public IP address and employs NAT to allow a further 4 wired clients at 100Mbps or wireless clients at 54Mbps using WPA-PSK encryption.


Future expansion possibilities:
- use web server as certificate/IAS server and use WPA with certificates

Edit:
Complete network overhaul, changed .GIF to .PNG (left text intact for now)

DELICIOUS

Me:-

System 1 :
1GHz AMD
512MB 133MHz SDRAM
×2 IDE 30GB & 40GB HDDs @ 7200rpm
17" viewable ADI Microscan Flat CRT
XP Pro
and some other bits and bobs

System 2 :
600MHz P3
128MB 100MHz SDRAM
×1 IDE 40GB HDD @ 5x00rpm
XP Pro (40 minute startup )

System 3 :
750MHz P3 (I think)
20GB HDD @ 5x00rpm
128MB RAM
Win 2k

and some random even older comps (486DXs e.t.c.)

http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/prod...oduct_uid=48449

with 1.1Mbps @ £15.99 till July when it drops to 256kb then might upgrade to 1Mbps again for £19.99 a month or 2Mbps £24.99

+ loads of patch cables

P.S. My router description says:

With the SAMR-4114 ADSL Router, speeding up for your network has never been easier or more cost-effective. Offering connectivity many times faster than traditional dial-up modems. At up to 8Mbps downstream and 640Kbps upstream for full-rate G.dmt, and up to 1.5Mbps downstream and 512Kbps upstream for G.lite, you'll see a startling and immediate increase in performance.

What is G.dmt and G.lite

[Howard]

Re-done mine with a few updates. Picture has all the info

[Moby-Dick]

what os is your "server" running howard ?

[Howard]

Win server 2003 enterprise

Evaluation of course ( or you happen to have a spare £400 for an OS )
are you using the routing and remote access stuff or had a play around with ISA yet ?
