Back up ffs

[mrmod]

I have around 20 PCs in the house, and my two story home is wired with one or more RJ45 CAT5e Ethernet outlets in each room. I have a 26-port (24 x 100 Mb & 2 x 1 Gb) Ethernet switch in the basement to power the LAN outlets, along with two 5-port Gigabit switches and two 8-port 100 Mb switches around the house. All my Ethernet switches are Netgear brand.

My Internet connection is a 6 Mbit/1 Mbit ADSL line that goes through a firewall router running Astaro Security Gateway v6.3 on a dedicated PC in the basement.

My basement server closet also contains a file server running NetMail ( formerly the Netscape Internet Messaging System) email post office software.

My living room TV setup with its 7.1 surround sound system has an ASUS O!Play media player that allows me to stream video and audio to my TV both from Internet sources and from the drives on my Windows workstation where I download media files via bit torrent.

So you might say I have a LAN.

I'm not pointing fingers but I think there is some pretty techproud users in the forum.
