I had to take a day off to be with the kids ( no school today ) and brought home one of our new 2800 routers to play with. We are upgrading all of our 2600's out at the branches. This thing is a cadillac. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/drooley.gif)

Sounds like a fun day. I've worked on many 2600's in the past. Would be interested in knowing how the Wi-Fi works out on it if you have that option. You doing any voice over it?

(in my best Crocodile Dundee voice)

That's not a router. This is a ROUTER!

We are going to be rolling out the voip in a few months. They (management) seem to be dragging their heels... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

And nope, no wireless. It's just not secure enough. Don't need that liability hanging over our heads I guess. Although.. I did hear we were going to start using wireless for some atm's in the near future. I don't even want to be a part of that headache... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif)



Demick, we have some big stuff too. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) Just that these 2800's are going out to the branches. If I wouldn't get hogtied and shot on the spot, I'd take a few pics of our core routers down in the noc.

Yeah, yeah. Internal codename was HFR (Huge F-ing Router). Finally came out what, like 2 years behind schedule?

Yes (except for MFR), but knowing some acronyms doesn't mean I actually know anything about them.

P.S. It always made me laugh because the media would always call the HFR the Huge Fast Router.

That "huge fast router" quote was planted by the team when they realized customers had caught on to the internal lingo.. a desperate attempt which failed, thus the "CRS" Product ID creation.


This was all Sort of like Porsche planting silly rumors in '96 that the 911 was going to be rear engined, V-8 powered.. and recently, that the 914 would be resurrected using an Subaru engine (masking the "Cayman" project)... sort of.. except Porsche knows what they are doing....



( they actually tried to change the internal project name to something completely different, but no-one would use the new terminology so they gave up)
