Best Physical Location for AEBS

By the end of the summer I plan on upgrading my old Airport base station to the current model. What is the consensus on the best physical location for the station? We have a two-story brick home with a basement and I plan on using the AEBS for wireless and as a router to my computer, Directv receiver and gaming system. The easiest install would be for me to mount it between the floor joists in the basement (the basement "ceiling"), however I don't know if that will severely restrict the range. I could install it in a closet on the first floor, but would need to run a phone line, cat5e cable and power to make it work.
We are really only looking to have the wi-fi available within the structure of the house and maybe the back yard- not the entire neighborhood.

As a follow up, here's what I ended up doing:
I mounted my AEBS in a first-floor closet located in the middle of our home. Since the AEBS has three ethernet ports out, I ran cat5e cable to the 1st floor Directv receiver, the office and the basement gaming system. The only things running wirelessly at this point is the Wii, my old G4 iBook, my son's DSi and a couple of iPod Touch's. The range is good and I've found no dead spots within our home or our yard.

What is the best physical orienttion for a new Dual Band II

I have a new AirPort Extreme (Simultaneous Dual Band II). It will be located above a drop ceiling in a hallway outside three rooms which need to be served by the Extreme. My question is this: Which will be the most effective physical orientation for the unit? (1) Sitting on the top side of the ceiling tiles --bottom of the Extreme facing downward into the hallway. (2) Mounted to the ceiling about 18 inches above the ceiling tiles --top of the Extreme facing downward into the hallway. (3) In a vertical orientation above the ceiling tiles --if this vertical orientation is best, then which of the four sides should face downward into the hallway and then --top or bottom toward the least served area --away from the served rooms. Or does it make any difference at all?

I would go for for option 2) to deliver best coverage.

Best mounting location for a 1131AG AP with intergrated antenna

Hi Guys.
Im deciding on the best mounting location and height to mount a aironet 1131AG Access point with intergrated antenna. Can anyone tell me the beam spread/angle that comes from these access points ?
thanks.

Hi Jason,
Just to add a note to the good info from Andrew. The Radiation pattern for the 1131 is shown nicely in the doc (towards the very end);

Best modem/router for AEBS that actually works?!

Hi,
I have had so many problems with my AEBS it's unbelievable! If someone could suggest a modem/router that works well with the AEBS so i can set up my wireless network that would be great! So far i have tried the netgear DM111P modem & the d-link 320T modem. Both do not seem to work, i can get onto the internet connecting directly to each of the modems but when i comes to connecting to the internet through the AEBS with the modem attached there is nothing. But i can connect one computer if the AEBS is in bridge mode, which is pointless as i need to share the connection. So any suggestions to help me or on a modem/router which will actually work, i would appreciate it a lot!
Many thanks!

Best file location for VS2013 Windows Form applications on a stand alone PC (Windows 7) upgrading from VS2008 Standard?

Hi and Help,
I'm in the process of upgrading my VS2008.Standard Windows Forms apps to VS2013.Pro. My concern is I've got the VS2008 apps scattered in folders all over my disc; this includes the VS2008 published apps.
All of the converted apps are being stored in one folder,
VB13_AppSource, in their own sub-folders. (I don't know if it makes any difference here, but all of these apps, except one which is a Sudoku screen app, use SQL2005.Express. After I've made all the conversions, I'll upgrade SQL
to the latest Express available down the road in several months. Included will be an upgrade from my current SSMS to the latest SQL Server Management Studio. )
What I'd like from you are recommendations and document locations on how to store VS2013 apps on my C drive. Please note that I'm using Net 4.5.1. Some of my thoughts are:
Source folder for all applications
Folder for all published apps
Folder for Class Library(s?)
Folder for Active SQL Databases
Folder for Test SQL Databases
Thanks for your help,

Best Mounting Location For AirPort Extreme 802.11ac

Hello,
I have used various models of the AirPort Extreme over the years and always mounted them at the highest peak of the ceiling in my home. It was always stated that they transmitted in roughly 360 degrees. Now I just upgraded to an AirPort Extreme 802.11ac model and have a third-party accessory mount that is metal for the first time (see attached picture). So, this changes the game somewhat. If this AirPort model also transmits in all directions, then that might mean I need to mount it with the metal mount to the ceiling or even inverted. Of course, just an initial test with this mount on the unit and tacked on the wall upright/horizontally with duct tape shows great reception IN the whole home. I just want to get the most efficient operation with 12 acres of land OUTSIDE. HA!
So, any comment on this from those much smarter than I?
Peace,
Dr. Z.

I think you are over analysing..
Mount it at the same height as the receiver.. more or less. In a convenient spot.. where you can run the cables easily.
I doubt the stand will matter a lot.. and I would not turn it upside down.
https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/AirPort+Extreme+A1521+Teardown/15044
From this picture the antennas are at the extreme top of the unit.. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/hUjlbvRWjoqQLDy6.huge
And I mean right up the top. so a piece of metal around that area of the TC will do nothing at all.

Best (Thrifty) physical architecture for medium-size environment?

What is the absolute best physical architecture you would come up with for this medium size environment?

Thrifty? The SharePoint CALs alone will run you at least $1.5 million unless you already own these or have a good EA. You said "basic collaboration" so I'm assuming you don't also need Enterprise CALs though note some of the features you listed
could require enterprise licensing depending on how you're using them.
The information you haven't provided isn't enough to make an appropriate recommendation. While you have 10,000 users it's not clear how many concurrent users you expect, or what sort of workloads these users will have.
Are the users all in one location? Spread out geographically? What types of network connections? Why types of networking devices (such as a load balancer for your second option)
Is this virtual or physical? What are the hardware specs of the servers?
How many documents do you expect to have? How large will they be? What sort of storage is backing this farm? How many site collections, sites, lists, libraries, items do you expect? Workflows, third party solutions, customizations, etc. The list goes on.
Neither of these options provide high availability. Is this a concern for you? I ask because in my experience a SharePoint farm used by over 10,000 people needs to be highly available. If you need HA then you'll need more servers.
Honestly this forum isn't the best place to get the information you're looking for (i.e. an architectural design). Instead I recommend asking specific questions about specific problems you have with your design.
My question(s) then for you are: 1. Why are these the two designs you have? (in another way: What are the decisions and requirements you have that led you to these options) and 2. What is the challenge you're having in picking one of them?

Can I assign several physical storage locations for each virtual machine when using the replication-feature from Hyper-V 2012 R2?

Hi everyone,
I have 2x physical servers running Hyper-V 2012 R2. Each hosts several virtual machines. The VHDs of the VMs are stored on several dedicated physical disks to have a performance boost. For exampe if VM A has two VHDs attached I made sure that the VHDs are
on different physical disks to have them not slow-down each other in case of intensive disk accesses.
So far so good. I was looking forward to the replication-feature. The idea is to have the two physical servers have their primary running VMs being replicated to the other physical server and vice-versa. I was hoping to have the chance to choose for each
individual VM where the replicated VHD will be stored. But instead I can only see the one location/path which is configured in Hyper-V Manager when I activate the replication-feature on the server.
Is there by any chance a way how to select the storage location for each VHD/VM if using the replication-feature of Hyper-V 2012 R2?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Secondly, you could replicate different VMs to different storage locations to perform some of the disk balancing you are trying to perform. Lastly, you could copy the vhd file to a different location
before starting the VM.

Hi Tim,
thanks for the reply. Sorry, but I had some other tasks to take care of, so I wasn't paying enough attention to this thread.
The part I quoted from your reply sounds exactly like the action I'd like to perform, but as you pointed out before this should not be possible.
How can I perform the action (replicating each VM to a storage location) as you mentioned secondly? To sum it up again:
2x physical machines carrying severel HDDs
8+ VMs spread to run on the 2x servers
when setting up replication I can only set the storage-location from server A on B and vice versa B on A
Thanks again for your reply.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Physical change of location for OBIEE server.

hi All,
We are doing a physical relocation for OBIEE server and this would mean a change of IP address of the OBIEE server.
From a OBIEE perspective what all would be affected and what all would have to be looked upon when we restart the OBIEE in the changed location.
Also I would like to know the Impact on OBIEE from the RCU perspective as the DB schema IP address id which was provided during installation is also going to change. Will this cause any problem.
Regards,
Bhavik

I plan to try relocating a obiee server. I am not sure whether you will have any issues with that make sure you have network setting set up properly.
Network setting are mentioned here:
http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/installation_11.1
About the RCU repository you can set it up to use a new ones:
OBIEE has lost repositories dev_biplatform and dev_mds.
Just create new ones and change the datasources in weblogic/console.
Please post if you have any issues or insides I am very interesting in this.

Best Blob Storage Locations for Russia

Hi,
Which is the best region/location of Blob Storage for serving Russia Region?

hi,
You could select the data center nearest to your location. I suggest you could refer to this blog (http://joranmarkx.wordpress.com/2012/01/16/microsoft-azure-data-center-locations-worl-wide/).
You could choose Netherlands (Amsterdam) to host your project.
And you could refer to this CDN node list (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazure/archive/2010/08/09/20-nodes-available-globally-for-the-windows-azure-cdn.aspx)

Best location for Project.fcp

Just getting started and testing. I am using a FW external drive for my media (the Scratch drive assigned via System Prefs). All is going well (so far).
Is there a best location for the Project.fcp file? I think that I read that it best reside on my startup drive.
But, I also read (I think) that the media files and project files should be kept in the same folder (I don't understand why). I would suspect that the Project.fcp file can be anywhere, just like any other document file. Correct?
Thanks,
Sonny

I asked the same question over three years ago!
Here was Tom's reply to me that has an added bit of info that might be useful:-
"+Putting the project file on the system drive is generally considered good practice. I'm not sure how much actual performance improvement you'll see, but the media might be less likely to have dropped frames. It also means, if your autosave vault is on the media drive, that you have project file backups on a second hardware device in case one fails."+

What to look for in a location for setting up an Extreme?

I have a router, cable modem, cell phone extender, and hub in a bedroom closet because that is the way it was setup when I moved into my house. It is messy and there are lots of messy cables. I want to move all of this into another part of my house. What do I need to look for when deciding a location for all of this gear? What technical requirements do I need to ensure that it will work? Do I just need power and an ethernet port on the wall? Anything else?
Thanks.

Why adequate ventillation?
To keep electronics running cooler, so they will last longer. If you are not concerned about component life, then you can ignore the advice about ventilation.
The gear is on one side of my house and I plan to add another Express device to use to extend the Wi-Fi signal. In this case, I'm assuming your sprinkler example does not matter?
Then why did you not tell us this originally? We could have saved you some time.
You told us that you planned to move all of the gear in the closet, and now you seem to be saying that is not the plan.
Locate the AirPort Express approximately half way between the AirPort Extreme and the general area that needs more wireless coverage.
Extending this way always results in compromises. The Express needs to be close to the AirPort Extreme to get a good strong signal, and yet it also needs to be close to the wireless devices to deliver a strong signal to the devices.
It cannot be located both near the Extreme and your devices at the same time, so the best "compromise" is about half way between the Extreme and the area where you need more wireless signal coverage. Avoid walls or ceilings in the signal path as much as possible.
Remember that the Express can only "extend" the quality and speed of signal that it receives. It cannot "boost" the speed of the connection, it can only make it go further.
A much better solution if possible would be to connect the AirPort Express to the AirPort Extreme using a wired Ethernet cable connection. Then, you can locate the Express exactly where it will be most needed, since there is no signal loss in a wire.

I'm an American living on a timed (though long-term) assignment in Ireland. I have both American and Irish bank accounts and addresses. I have two Qs. 1. Can I use the US Adobe site when in Ireland? Or will my physical location prevent me from doing so? 2. I am working for a not-for-profit organization. Is there a special pricing plan for non-profits, similar to the plans for students, small business, etc? Thanks for whatever help you can give me. (P.S. As a potential customer and past user of Adobe products for 15 years, I find it INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING that I cannot speak with any Adobe representative, but am continually re-routed instead to a public forum to get what I hope will be accurate information. Not good, Adobe. Your products are amazing. Your customer service leaves a lot to be desired. I don't mean that with disrespect, but as honest feedback.)

Hi bookchic
Thanks for your feedback.
Non-profit pricing is available to eligible institutions via the VIP program which is sold by resellers - see Eligibility guide
For details of resellers please check here: Adobe Platinum Partners – Value Incentive Plan
If you wish to purchase an individual plan via Adobe.com the country of your Adobe ID will determine which site you order from.

Automatically creation of storage location for material, in MF60

Hi all,
my collegue of PP module uses MF60 transaction.
When he puts XXXX as Replenishment storage location, the system tells him this error: To stge loc. XXXX does not exist for material M1010000182 in plant 0001.
In MM i have activate the automatic creation of storage location for plant 0001 and for all movement types.
Why MF60 does not respect this requirement?
If I try to do movement type 311 with MIGO, manually, there's no problem to transfer the material from a storage location to , XXXX s.loc.
Is there something more that I have to do?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards
Alba

Thanks a lot...
the note says:
Summary
Symptom
A material without storage location view exists.
If within a single material document, this material is moved in such a way that no change in stock occurs in total, the system does not create a storage location automatically even if this is set in Customizing.
Additional key words
OMC3, XLAUT
Cause and prerequisites
All postings to a segment (for example, material, plant, storage location) are only executed if a change in stock occurs. Only in this case, storage locations are created automatically. This way it is made sure that no empty segments are created.
Solution
The system behaves correctly.
Header Data
Release Status:
Released on: 07.07.2000 22:00:00
BUT why IF i do 311 in MIGO, system creates automatically storage location (also if no change in stock occurs in total).
AND if doMF60 (that does mouvement 311), system does not create automatically the storage location?
Best regards
Alba
