orangeninja | cyberanger: what's happing bro. | 22:12 |
cyberanger | orangeninja: not much, you? | 22:13 |
orangeninja | I was wondering, could an old MN-100 router be used as a switch on my home network? | 22:13 |
orangeninja | nothing much just messing around in my computer lab....LOL! | 22:14 |
orangeninja | for some reason, I think I read where one might could use and old router as a switch... but I could be totally off base here. | 22:15 |
cyberanger | orangeninja: don't know the model | 22:25 |
cyberanger | but in general, it can be done, as long as the device supports it | 22:28 |
orangeninja | http://download.microsoft.com/download/B/6/9/B69C956C-85D9-4641-AA6F-1548391E0967/MN-1003-10.pdf (http://download.microsoft.com/download/b/6/9/b69c956c-85d9-4641-aa6f-1548391e0967/mn-1003-10.pdf) | 22:28 |
orangeninja | what would I be looking for to know if it is supported? | 22:28 |
orangeninja | specificlly "Switch" support? ...lol sorry I'm clueless | 22:29 |
cyberanger | this is a microsoft router? | 22:31 |
orangeninja | yep OLD router I found in a box | 22:31 |
cyberanger | idk if I'd bother, based on manufactuer | 22:32 |
orangeninja | LOL I also have a netgear WNR1000 comcast/xfinity sent me | 22:32 |
cyberanger | either it has a mode in the actual settings like the dd-wrt type firmware | 22:33 |
cyberanger | or an ability to disable the dhcp server at least | 22:33 |
orangeninja | that's what I think I read.... turn off DHCP and it was a switch. don't know if it is that simple though.... GUess I could take 50 dollars and buy one. | 22:35 |
cyberanger | don't think it's that high lately | 22:39 |
orangeninja | yeah | 22:40 |
