The lowest-priced item that has been used or worn previously. The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear, but is fully operational and functions as intended. This item may be a floor model or store return that has been used. See details for description of any imperfections. Verified purchase: Yes Condition: Pre-owned.
Overall receiver is too bad. Verified purchase: Yes Condition: New. This the worst receiver for those who are looking for a true FTA,One Major option missing with this is Blind Scan, You have to Search for TP's Online and Enter them Manually which makes harder to find new channels, another thing is if you have a motorized system hooked up, this receiver doesn't make it easy for you to move the motor you have to really know what your doing, I've owned other boxes that are a lot easier to operate and operate correctly and much cheaper unlike this one.
It Cost too much I don't know for what but defiantly over priced compare to other ones that do a better job then this. The kind good this one has that it's an HD and you can hook up the over the air antenna and get most of HD channels crystal clear.
I hated it in the beginning but I've gotten used to so far I had too I paid too much :. I think this receiver was made only for piracy and not for it's original purpose FTA. Read full review. This reciever is very good. Does that indicate that my 8PSK unit is not working? Nov 23, 2, 3 Montreal, QC. The Nfusion receivers are basically just for piracy, they are pretty useless for anything else, the internet connection is I think only used for illegal card sharing as I do not even think it work for regular updates?
Thanks, tdti1. I'm going to try to return it to GoSatellite and get my money back. Feb 27, 72 0 Birchwood,Wisconsin. Good luck with the return to GoSatellite, I crossed them off my list a long time ago, and switched to Sadoun.
Usually have to put a hex on it, and do a little voodoo dance around it to get it to work. I use a Sonic View HD in the house, and have gotten more than a year of good service out of it. Theres not a lot of mpeg 2 HD up in the air, but its got a good ota tuner in it. To scared to attempt to buy a 8psk card for it.
Mar 1, 2, 2, Roseville, CA W. Good luck with the return to GoSatellite, I crossed them off my list a long time ago, and switched to Sadoun I am confused how can the Nfusion HD be advertised as such when it needs an 8psk upgrade? Pedro, there are one or two legitimate satellite HD channels that you can get without the 8PSK module.
SatelliteGuys Pro. Oct 15, 2, 1 Western Maine. Yes, it would be good if somebody could enlighten us. My module got neither because it's probably defective. Thanks for your input. Why then are some receiver maufacturers making so called HD receivers that only do part of the job. Users need to understand and research the specs on intended receiver purchases and Suppliers need to be more aware else they will have receivers left on their shelves.
Thanks to driver for bringing this to our attention. Iceburg - How about putting a sticky on what spec to look for in an HD Receiver. Nov 17, 48 Mankato, MN. Mar 5, 8 0 Miami. Another problem with these cards is the poor quality of them, probably they are produced for thrid party manufacturers in mainland China or Taiwan, without quality control, or even, tested with the receivers which are intended to be used. The Pansat card is not capable to pick up the turbo system.
Jun 4, Pensacola, FL. Davage SatelliteGuys Pro. Jul 26, 1, 0 Southwestern Ontario. I appreciate it. If this thread deters guys from making the same mistake I did buying an nfusion HD from GoSatellite , then it's a good thing I started it. I called GoSatellite's "customer support" number. I got a recording, and I left a complaint message and my telephone number. The advantage of creating a guest network is that you can tailor it to suit your needs.
For example, you can have different access restrictions and privacy settings. Since the two networks are separate, you'll also be more secure, and you can even tailor the bandwidth usage so your friends don't start hogging all your download speeds. Apply Settings. Apply settings. If you would like the guest network to have a fixed bandwidth, for example, you need to have a baseline when testing a product, then you can do so in the following way after you've done the above:.
DD-WRT allows you to use four different hub-spots which are extremely convenient and useful for commercial environments. I will go into a bit of detail for each one of these, however, I will only go into the setup of HotSpot System as I found this one the easiest to use and implement. Sputnik i, like HotSpot system, and in some cases Chilispot work as a paid management provider. This means that they will handle your splash screen, different locations, and more for a monthly or per purchase fee.
We found Sputnik to be somewhat annoying to setup, but it does provide you with some good settings and will limit all WiFi use to the Sputnik splash screen. I found HotSpot system to be the easiest to setup and use. The service allows you to charge customers for WiFi in which case the company takes a small percentage of the payment. You can also provide users with free WiFi connection and have a splash screen which asks them to follow you on your social networks, you have to pay a small monthly price for this.
Wifidog and Chilispot are both open source, which means that if you wish, you can set up the server for this yourself, meaning you don't even need an internet connection. Wifidog is the most complicated, and the least talked about option, so I'd recommend avoiding it and choosing Chilispot instead.
Firstly, you can use services such as Wi-Fiplanet and EngageHotspot to have a web-based splash page and system. These work similar to HotSpot system, but they are less commercial and hence it will take a bit more work to get it set up nicely, and to your needs. It also means that these services are a lot cheaper than HotSpot System. You can learn more about setting up, by watching this YouTube video.
Secondly, you can set up Chilispot with your own Debian server, thereby keeping everything within your control as well. This setup does require a lot of technical experience, and goes outside the scope of this guide as well. If you want, you can also limit access to your network by device.
All modern devices have something called a MAC Media Access Control address, which is like a house address and is unique to each device. Once you know a device's MAC address, you can restrict its access to your network. First, you need to find the MAC address of the device you wish to allow or block.
Now that you have determined the MAC address of a device, you can block it or allow it. For example, I'm going to block the Android device shown in the previous image. As stated at the start of this guide, one of the biggest advantages of DD-WRT is the additional settings and setups they allow you to do.
While I have explained most options previously, this section is dedicated to some more unique setups. As our branding might have given it away already, we love VPNs. However, I will not be covering this. Before starting, you will, of course, need a VPN account.
I must mention, that an OpenVPN router can be set up in some ways, so consult your VPN provider before starting as their instructions might vary, and it that case you should follow those. If running a VPN client on your router is one of your primary concerns, then I'd recommend getting something more powerful as the best VPN router will need a lot of processing power. If you'd like to, it's possible to set up your router as a Dual Gateway.
This uses policy-based routing, and it allows some of your devices to use the VPN connection, while others use your normal connection. This can be really useful if you want to unblock Hulu , changing Netflix region or watching BBC iPlayer outside the UK on your media device as these are now blocking VPNs and want to access local services at the same time.
We do, however, recommend that you connect to a VPN as often as possible to ensure your connection is encrypted. Despite the fact that it doesn't work with Netflix that well anymore, there is still plenty of restricted websites it allows you to access.
I recommend Blockless as it has a great price, and provides a well-rounded overall service. Unfortunately, at the moment, I'm not aware of any free Smart DNS services that are legitimate and will not sell your data. There are, however, some free VPN services that have good privacy policies and will keep your data secure.
If you're a fan of torrenting, then you can install a torrent client called Transmission on your router. This means that you can download torrents without having to leave your computer switched on and, of course, allows you to have a better seeding ratio as well.
I must mention that here at ProPrivacy we do not condone the use of torrenting for illegal purposes. However, there are plenty of legitimate reasons to use torrent clients. To be able to get Transmission up and running, you will need to have carried out a few of the previous steps, but don't worry I have referenced these accordingly. Now that you have transmission up and running you will also need to be able to access it quickly, to make the process simple. For information about staying secure when torrenting, see our best VPN for torrent sites guide.
DLNA, or the Digital Living Network Alliance as it's called, is a digital standard that makes it easier to stream media content across devices on a network. The standard has many advocates, but there are many people that do not find it useful. The reason is, that with modern technology it can be easy to access the NAS drive on your router and stream the content easily.
Click through to the relevant links below for more a guide on how to setup DLNA with your device. Unfortunately, one of the downsides of DD-WRT over traditional router firmware, is the lack of a dedicated cloud storage system. As well as a set of unified apps and easy set-up, both Linksys and AsusWRT firmware provide this capability. While, yes it's possible to use an FTP system and set up a bunch of code, this just isn't the real deal.
If you would like, you're also able to set up a DD-WRT Webserver, which allows you to host a web page, share files with colleagues, and carry out a number of other website-related activities. I will show you the basics of getting set up with Pydio, however, you may wish to check their administration guides to see what else you can use it for. You now have an accessible webserver, which multiple people can access. If you would like it to be available from anywhere around the world, you will need to have WAN enabled in the Webserver setup.
If you have your router connected to a modem, you will also need to set up port forwarding for port 81, to your DD-WRT router. You can then find your IP by visiting our what is my IP page. Your computer and other devices on your network are identified on the internet by what is called an IP Internet Protocol address.
Your ISP provides this to you automatically so most of the time you don't have to worry about it. The frequency varies by provider, but unless you have a static IP, it will change at some point in time. When your IP does change, you won't notice any difference because it doesn't have a significant effect on the inner workings of your system. However, when you're trying to access your router from an external location then you will always need to know your IP, or you won't be able to connect to it.
A DDNS system will give you a web address such as thisismyrouter. If you have already purchased or planning to a domain from NameCheap, then you'll be able to set up DDNS using their system.
We already recommend using adblockers on your computer and installing some plugins on your browser Chrome, Firefox , however, sometimes it might be more practical to run an adblocking service on your router.
Unfortunately, plugins and such can be a problem on mobile devices, especially on iOS. This gives another good reason to run an Adblocker on your router directly, all devices connected to it will have advertisements blocked on it. I am going to give you the quick and easy way of setting up Privoxy the built-in DD-WRT Adblocker and if you'd like more help you can leave a comment or visit the Privoxy websites for more details. If you have a monthly download, or upload limit assigned to you by your ISP, or would just like to know how much internet you are using, then you can analyze your data statistics using DD-WRT.
Using the Status bar, you're also able to analyze a number of other factors, and find out if there are any other problems with your network as well, or improvements that could be made. If you wish to have more in-depth network monitoring, and also see a break down of data usage by software, then I'd recommend downloading Glasswire, which will do just that and more. WPS refers to a system which allows you to easily connect a device to your router.
You might have seen it before that when you are connecting to a wireless network, it permits the option for a quick connection by pressing the WPS button on the router. Unfortunately, generally speaking these systems are horrible for the security of your router. However, there are some commercial builds, such as on Buffalo routers, where the option for it does exist.
If you do get one of these, I'd recommend disabling it instantaneously. I sincerely hope that you have enjoyed reading my guide and have found something useful to implement and help you create the best WiFi router possible. If you've never played around with DD-WRT before it's a great way to spend a few hours and improve your home with. If you have found. If you have found this guide helpful, I'd appreciate a share on your favorite social network.

You can easily split your traffic between networks, dedicate it to specific software, devices, and more. Universal Plug and Play UPnP - a protocol that easily allows the sharing of devices within a network for quick and easy sharing of files, media, printers, etc.
Network printers — As with hard drives, you can attach printers to your DD-WRT router which then can be accessed from across the network. Wireless bridging — turns the router into a wireless repeater to extend the range of your WiFi signal. Advanced performance graphs — DD-WRT provides advanced network tracking and display for better troubleshooting and analysis.
Adjust antenna power — one of the many ways you can increase your wireless range. Roku Sticks and AppleTV. The first hurdle is choosing your router. DD-WRT vs. OpenWRT vs. Tomato DD-WRT isn't the only open-source router firmware on the market, and technically it isn't the best in all aspects. Do a reset. Press the reset button for 30 seconds you'll probably need a pen for this. Without letting it go, disconnect the power for 30 seconds.
Plug the power back in, and keep pressing the button for a further 30 seconds. This helps erase the memory of the router for a clean install.

Changing the Basic Settings Now that you've installed the firmware, the primary task will be to change all the core and important settings, including the wireless access point configuration. As detailed in the previous instructions, you'll be prompted to change your DD-WRT username and password immediately. I recommend you write this down somewhere, such as in a password manager , so you don't get locked out by accident.
If you have more than one wireless network which you will with the AC56U then give them different names so you can easily differentiate between them. Apply Settings once done. Under the Wireless Security tab, apply a password for both networks.
