Network keeps dropping out.

Backgound. We have an internal network with 2 buildings. There is fibre connecting the 2 buildings with an AT-8024GB switch at each end. In the second building, the servers are in the first, we have been experiencing regular connection dropouts. Rebooting the switch in the second building has temporarily fixed the problem. To my understanding when the switches were put in there was no configuraion done and I was wondering if one needs to be set as a master. My understanding is they were simply connected, turned on and the data started to flow. When there is a network drop out in the second building all users in the second building are effected but none in the first.

Yes, you are correct in stating that one has to be the master, and one needs to be the slave. Normally, if you go to the manufactures website, and look for documentation on that model of switch, it will walk you through step by step on installation and re-installation. I have personally downloaded documentation from the Cisco website for setting up a large network. Try that, if you have further questions, please respond back.

in earthing u have to get only below 3 volts in case u get more than that its sure ur problem that ur facing is with voltage variation
the common issues of this switching is


I administer a small network for a cab company, and have lately been battling an internal connectivity problem for the last several days. It seems that 2 of the 5 computers on the LAN intermittently "drop" connection without losing their IP addresses. If I disable the network connection on the "dropped" machine, and then immediately re-enable it, it seems to work for anywhere from 5 minutes to a couple of hours, then "drops" again. All LAN IP addresses are configured manually. I've posted an image of the network map at http://www.geekcavecreations.com/images/network_map.gif to illustrate how the LAN is arranged.

The local network has 2 computers that connect to the internet through the DSL router, one for ICS, and the other has an external web server (neither one has connectivity problems).

One computer on the LAN has an internal web server that handles our dispatch program. All computers on the network need to be able to access this box.

The dispatch client has to access the dispatch server, but can't have internet access. It's blocked from the internet through the simple expedient of not having an external DNS server assignment.

Now, for the meat of the problem. I've checked and re-checked the configurations for both the dispatch server and the dispatch client, and find no problems. Both have the most recent drivers for the network cards, and both have new cables. I've swapped out a known good hub for the LAN, and have made sure that there are no mis-configured hosts files. As outlined previously, disabling and enabling the NIC on the offending machine will restore connectivity for a while. I've checked each machine for an overheating problem, just in case, and find no trouble there. All machines are running XP Pro.

I can't shake the feeling that I'm missing something basic and simple, but I'm at a loss as to what that might be. Any suggestions?

Engenius eap-3660 access points channels chashing.

This is a massive and expensive network, which appears to require a full signal and configuration audit. It's quite possible that many of your problems are stemming from the APs you have already deployed being situated in suboptimal and conflicting locations, which is an issue with three-dimensional wireless networks.
I really don't see your problems being debugged by anyone short of an experienced on-site wireless network technician. I'm saying this as a person who tuns a one-man company serving two rural communities with wireless internet service.
Sorry.

Interconecting 2 Panasonic KX-TDA 200 & KX-TDA600

You are asking for some very advanced setup features, as far as connecting them you need the IPGateway cards. They are cat5 cards that will do the trick. However programming the setup to do what you want will be VERY time consuming and not to easy to walk someone through. On-site tech is highly recommended for that much programming and work.
