Our short guide will get you up to speed on how WAN acceleration works and what it can do for your network.
Apposite Technologies has announced the release of the Linktropy Mini, a portable, low cost version of its Linktropy WAN emulator.
The Linktropy Mini emulates link bandwidth, delay, jitter, packet loss, and other basic network impairments on up to 100 Mbps bi-directional network links. The Mini measures only 11" W x 7" D x 1.75" H and weighs 3.5 lbs. making it easy to transport and use.
The Linktropy Mini is available immediately for $1975 MSRP.
Apposite Technologies today announced gigabit versions of its Linktropy network emulators.
The Linktropy 7500 emulates a single wide area network (WAN) link, while the Linktropy 7500 Pro can emulate up to 4 WAN links with an aggregate throughput of 4 Gbps. Both Linktropy models simulate wide-area network links of up to 1 Gbps per link.
Linktropy WAN emulators simulate bandwidth, delay, packet loss, congestion, and other link impairments to emulate terrestrial, internet, wireless, satellite or any other type of wide-area network.
Both the Linktropy 7500 and 7500 Pro come in 1U-sized, rack-mountable chassis, and include both copper and modular fiber/copper Gigabit Ethernet interfaces and browser-based administration.
Pricing for the 7500 starts at $7,500. Shipments of both products will begin next month.
It's harder than you think for that expensive router of yours to deliver all the throughput the big number on its box promises. We show you why.
Trying to decide between a router and a Wi-Fi System? This experiment should help you choose wisely.
Updated: Here's a quick primer on Wi-Fi 6E.
Wi-Fi ping spikes aren't always caused by a poor connection. Your router settings could be to blame.
Ever wonder what happens behind the scenes when Wi-Fi devices roam, or more likely don't? We'll show you why the "seamless" roaming Wi-Fi gear makers promise is still as elusive as a Yeti.
We reveal the secrets of why your devices don't always connect where you want them to and what you can do to fix it.
