wmcnulty66 0 Posted July 16, 2007 Geovision Mini Cube WEC-MINI-B This is the one that is slowing my network down. I have a cable modem, business line. Connected to a Linksys BEFSX41 then to a D-Link 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch, Model DSS-8+, then to the Geovision Mini Cube WEC-MINI-B three other pc's and two thermal printers with printservers. I am viewing it through the web cam, and it slows down the rest of the network whenever I connect. 1, 2 or multi 16 cameras. I have not been able to test the bandwith yet but when i am not looking at the webcam network is flying. I have all of the other network servers on this system turned off and the bandwith setting down to 5 on webcam server, and it is not making any difference. Would one of the other servers be better for remote viewing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted July 17, 2007 Its a custom built PC from an online store .. 3Ghz P4, 512DDR, Intel 865 chipset .. I dont know how its specs will be slowing down your network though, unless it is loaded with malware or viruses .. Looks like a pretty old system, maybe look at an upgrade if the company can afford it. Otherwise best to do a reformat and reload windows and geo. You could clean it up but its been a while, I would just do a fresh installation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmcnulty66 0 Posted July 17, 2007 It was just purchased a month and a half ago. It hasn't been used for anything but survalence. It shouldn't have anything on it. I had it upgraded to xp pro and 1gb memory. It has 2-300GB sata drives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had it upgraded to xp pro and 1gb memory. It has 2-300GB sata drives. Its still a very old chipset ... Granted there is a markup, the parts they include in the PC side of it, are very very cheap right now, in fact that would be listed as a very budget PC.

wmcnulty66 0 Posted July 19, 2007 There will be a restocking fee, but it's no good to us if we cannot view it remotely. Would the QOS service of XP pro make any difference? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
