Router Pricing

I'm thinking of getting a router if I find the answer to this question. Do you pay monthly when using a router or do you just buy it once and you can use the internet when you set it up? I'm new to the connection/internet details of computers so I need some help.

If you get your modem and/or router from your ISP, there may be a monthly equipment rental charge on it. Some ISP's will only rent you the equipment. Others will sell you the equipment.
If you purchase a Linksys router at a store or on the web, you pay once. There is no monthly fee for the Linksys router. Linksys also provides firmware upgrades for the router for free.
In either case, your ISP will charge you a monthly fee for your Internet service.
Note that Linksys routers are designed to be used with a high speed "broadband" Internet connection, not a dial-up connection. If you use a Linksys router, you will also need to get a modem that has an ethernet port on it (not just a USB port). You can get the modem from your ISP.

Pricing in Opportunity Based on ECC Route

Hi CRM experts
My client is a logistics Service Provider and their base price in ERP is based on Route + Service Product.
They want to see same price in CRM opportunity. But in CRM Opportunity there is no u2018Routeu2019 to calculate base price from ERP.
Can you please share your ideas about how can we achieve this in SAP CRM?
We are on CRM 7.0 and ECC6 with EHP4
Your help will be highly appreciated

New VMS/IPC boxes - speed and pricing

For the most part, I've been a very happy FiOS customer. The internet side has gone out exactly once in the year I've had the service, and it was restored within an hour. TV has dropped out twice, both times very late at night (I assume for head-end maintenance). Reliability is better than every other ISP I've ever had, combined.
That said..
I wanted to snag another STB for the house - found out the local stores had all been closed (I can understand why from the financial aspect, but it was still a shock pulling up to my old store to pick up another STB.. and finding a "for lease" sign, when I'd been by there 2 months prior), so I looked at options online. The new VMS + IPC boxes looked promising, especially since they added the ability for the entire house to pause, rewind, schedule recordings, etc, from any TV - instead of only the DVR being able to do that (though the old boxes could stream recordings from the DVR).
My chief complaint so far - while the VMS box itself is responsive, the IPC boxes are painfully slow to respond to anything. Picture quality is fantastic, but using them feels, to put it in nerd terms, like using a Pentium 90 with Windows XP and 128MB RAM. They take 5+ to respond to anything more than a channel change (and even that takes up to 3 seconds), and frequently "lose" remote key presses if you try to, say, hit guide, hit page down, then try to arrow down to the channel that you know is on the next page. It literally feels like a throwback to the earliest digital set top boxes from Comcast/Time Warner - the first ones with built-in TV listings in the mid 1990s. The speed is right on par with them; the only thing faster right now is they don't shut down for 30 minutes a day to update the TV listings.
I've gone through the built-in diagnostics on the boxes to verify signal levels - they're decent (not perfect, but this is a 20 year old house with mostly original coax), but we have no pixelation or picture drop-out, so I would think they could carry the basic stuff between the IPC boxes and VMS pretty easily. The router certainly has no problem handling the 75/35 on the same coax (speedtest shows 85-90 down, 35-40 up, with a ~5ms ping, no matter which cable outlet it's plugged into)..
My other complaint - why did Verizon move to "rooms" for pricing? I thought I was getting a DVR plus 3 STBs (since I ordered 3 STBs and asked for a DVR), instead of a VMS + 2 STBs - and I'm paying much more than I did for the old DVR + 2 STBs.
With the griping out of the way - is there a reasonable chance that firmware updates will help with the speed of the IPC boxes? Or is there a chance it's a cabling issue? (I have no problem pulling new coax or cat5e, and I can provide signal levels if that'll help) If not, is there any chance of getting the old QIP7232 DVR + QIP7100 box back (and adding another 7100), and switching back to what I was paying before? I know they're a bit antiquated (especially the 7100s), but they were much more responsive, and didn't make me want to throw the STBs through the window. It just seems really rediculous that I'm paying such a large premium (plus the "upgrade fee") for equipment that, in terms of the user experience, is much worse.
Again.. been a happy customer for a long time, but the new terminals are super painful to use.
Thanks.

If this is the case. I think I will wait till the bugs are worked out
Question what were you paying before and after for the boxes. So what was the old DVR + 2 STB's and the new DVR plus 2 stb's
Trying to get an idea of what you meant by way more. Most people said same pricing and a small $20 or so upgrade fee

Route is not getting updated in billing

Hi all,
I have a freight condition type which is having the key combination of plant & Route (werks/route). we give route manually in the delivery document header but it is not getting updated in billing item and because of that billing item is not picking the condition records.
My copy controls from LF > F8 Header 009 and item 010 maintained.
Please give your valuable inputs to resolve this
Regards

As I know there is no field for Route or for transportation in Invoice.
I suggest you to consider trying routine based pricing for the same.
Also,for understanding refer following link:

Can I use Extreme with Time Capsule to extend my gateway router and still use Capsule as "external HD"?

Bought Airport Extreme with Time Capsule version 7.7.2 with 2 Terabytes Feb 2014. It was probably an expensive mistake, but after searching for weeks for a external hard drive, it seemed reasonably priced to just use the capsule as my external hard drive for the price I paid. Spend an hour with Apple Care to get it working-had to use ethernet cord to my iMac OS 10.8.5 processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5. I did not "need" the airport as we have a Winstream SAGEMCOM modem/router (Sagemfast 1704) But, I was desperate and about to lose my old external hard drive with literally had 3 computers worth of information on it. It had already "died" once, but got it back, so once I got the airport/capsule and was told I just paid for an expensive HD, I had no time to take it back to get something else-I had to transfer my info right then. We (Apple Care) could not get it to work as a HD wirelessly. It may be because it was being set up for the first time; I don't know. I was hoping I would get a transcript of all done so I could do it myself if needed later on, but when I looked at my email-they didn't do that. (Don't know if that is normal, I was used to other "techs" sending the email.) So now I really want to try to move my airport and "extend" our wifi as it said on the "box" that you could do...
Our Windstream router had to be placed in the lower level at the bottom of our stairs. The stairway is "open" (no door going down the steps). I want to place the Extreme at the top of the stairs so that we can use some things in our offices or not have Netflix on our TV lose connectivity when we all are on our computers.
I know I need an ethernet cord to connect directly with the modem/router to the Airport Extreme. I don't know what I will need to do after I connect it as it was so goofy when we set it up the first time (With the app it would disappear and not show up..) But my biggest concern is will I be able to still use the capsule as my hard drive and will I be able to do it wirelessly? (Even with it connected by ethernet, every day I have to re-connect to it before I can click on anything on the hard drive. It never shows up on it's own as my old HD did. That drives me nuts.) I do back up using the Time Capsule feature as well. I appreciate any help.

I am still willing to plug in the ethernet cord to the modem/router and try it IF I was able to get a step by step instructions..
Connecting the Time Capsule (TC) to the existing Winstream by Ethernet would be the basis for a roaming type network. This type of network allows you to basically "roam" with a wireless client and connect to either router. This, in essence, would provide you with an "extended" wireless network. The Apple routers can work with just about any manufacturers' routers in this fashion.
The keys to having a successful roaming network are as follows:
The routers must be interconnected by Ethernet.
Both routers will broadcast their own Wi-Fi network, but MUST use the same Network Name (or SSID), wireless security type (WPA or WPA2), and wireless password.
The TC MUST be reconfigured as a bridge.
Connect a single Ethernet cable between one of the Winstream's LAN ports and the WAN (circle of dots) port on the TC.
The basic steps are:
Power-down the Winstream.
Perform a "factory default" reset on the TC. Leave the TC powered-down after the reset has completed.
Connect the TC to the Winstream using an Ethernet cable.
Power-up the Winstream. Wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it to initialize.
Power-up the TC. Wait at least 5 minutes to allow it to initialize. (Note: Since we just reset the TC it will be performing as a wireless router that will be broadcasting an unsecured Wi-Fi network with a Network Name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN)
Connect your computer to the Winstream's Wi-Fi network.
Run the AirPort Utility. select the TC, and then, select Edit.
Go to the Network tab.
Change the Router Mode option to: Off (Bridge Mode)
Select the Wireless tab.
Verify that the Network Mode option is set to: Create a wireless network
For Wireless Network Name, enter the Wi-Fi network name used by the Winstream.
For Wireless Security, select the equivalent security type that is used by the Winstream. (Note: Use "WPA/WPA2 Personal" if the Winstream is using WPA/TKIP. Use "WPA2 Personal" is the Winstream is using WPA2/AES.
For Wireless Password, enter the same password used by the Winstream.
Select Update and allow the TC to restart.
As far as your external HD, yes you should still be able to use it as before.

FIOS not good ISP for gaming in North East, bad routing to canada and west coast.

Yes the same thing has been happening to me. It also appears it was a problem back in january according to this thread....

Here is a past MWO thread started at the same time by a verizon customer. I believe almost all of thise users have quit fios or quit MWO.
http://mwomercs.com/forums/topic/91680-higher-ping-times-after-patch/page__st__80
Many people in the game believe its due to MWO patches, but I think thats just a placebo. I believe it is to do with the cold winter months and verizon not being able to handle the load. Speedtests to any west coast, specifically vancouver server, have the same results.
I have called verizon, gone to live chat, spoken to many different supervisors and technicians and have gotten no help with this issue. They basically tell me its not their problem.
After doing many traceroutes and speedtests. It appears I am getting routed through europe to get to canada from NY, which just doesn't make any common sense. First verizon claims the link router sending us to europe is not owned by them. Then we have to prove to them that it in fact is with public business records and WHOIS reports. Which also seemed to be the case for others in that thread back in january.
IT seems the issue in january might of been that particular router was geting overloaded they might have fixed the circuit on that verizon link/border router in question. But now it seems the issue has been passed up the line to the next link router and now that next circuit up the line is getting congested.

Going from 20 ping to 100 depending on time of day, which seems to 24 hours a day now! is a real tease and frustrating, and when there is packet loss or excessive spikes, thats when we lose the connection, session lost messages, black screen issue...etc...
When reading that past thread, The problem server back in january was tinet-gw.customer.alter.net [152.179.72.122] (the one that routes us through europ) but now it seems the burden has been passed up the chain to the next link/border router and circuit internap-gw.ip4.tinet.net [77.67.70.94].
Maybe the guys back in january were able to pressure verizon to increase bandwidth on the tinet circuit on tha verizon router in NY because they actually owned that server, even though they originally tried to lie and claim they didn't. Even if not part of FIOS, and after the 6th hop. Its obvious it was theirs cause it ends with alter.net, was right here in NYC, WHOIS reports gave verizons email, and business records show they bought it in 2006.
Fios doesn't contact DSL, residential doesn't contact business...etc.. Its like this company doesn't remember how 9/11 happened!!!
BUt Now the burden is on the the next link router which routes to internap. And that is a german server and part of tinet.net and is a different company that verizon does not have direct access to. Verizon would not even email the admin for me, which many feel is unprofessional.
You can try emailing that admin yourself or doing some trace routes your self and calling and pressuring verizon to address the issue themselves.
It seems verizon fios can't handle routing people to canada, especially in the cold months of the year. They must not be able to handle their load. It seems verizon fios is really a scam, and fiber optics is just a pretty name, but in reality is no different then any other network, except locally. The only difference we need to look at when buying bandwidth, is pricing period. The fact it is fiber optics means diddly squat! And the more people that get fios, i predict the worse their network is going to get.
I have sent an email to the admin of that german server {edited for privacy} but I would be shocked if I got any reply. Ridiculous for verizon to suggest I do that in the first place.
People with timer warner in the same area are getting constant 20-40 ping to MWO, while verizon fios customers are getting terrible connections right now.

What you are seeing here has nothing at all to do with what your speed is. Latency has nothing to do with speed, it has to do with distance and network congestion. Your local ISP, no matter who it is, can not directly affect how another company (in your case Internap Network Services Corporation) routes data. Now if there was a problem in a link directly connected to your local ISP, for example:
4 94 ms 12 ms 10 ms ae0-0.NY325-BB-RTR2.verizon-gni.net [130.81.209.110]
5 9 ms 15 ms 12 ms 0.so-4-0-1.XT2.NYC4.ALTER.NET [152.63.10.29]
*from your tracert
The above link is leaving Verizon local control and entering Alter.Net control, if there was latency on a regular basis there then this should be reported to Verizon as your local ISP and that will filter up to their NOC group who will contact Alter.net and figure out the issue with that link. If the issue is a faulty link it will get fixed, if the issue is a link undergoing to much traffic its ability to handle the traffic will either be increased where possible or routed around where possible. The whole issue of peer-to-peer networking is very complex (which is what the Supreme Court was reviewing by the way) and a number of issues come into play. If the connection point only experiences high traffic sometimes on a very limited basis then generally routing some traffic to different connections is what is done.
Now in your later postes you show the following:
8 38 ms 39 ms 39 ms xe-8-2-0.tor10.ip4.tinet.net [141.136.107.98]
9 100 ms 104 ms 103 ms internap-gw.ip4.tinet.net [77.67.70.94]
10 97 ms 99 ms 98 ms border1.te7-1-bbnet1.tor001.pnap.net [70.42.24.132]
11 103 ms 103 ms 96 ms relay-1.mwtactics.com [70.42.29.65]
That clearly shows the problem is inside the tinet.net (Internap Network Services Corporation) network. This network is also the network providing the link into this game server. What does this tell us? From what you are seeing it tells us that either Internap does not have enough bandwidth to server the amount of traffic down to this server or the game company has not purchased a high enough link. The latter is unlikely. Most likely the issue is that Verizon's Fios product is growing with more and more people are trying to reach that game from the Fios network. This causes issues at the link point, which Verizon apparently has taken steps to fix as well as those internal links going down to the game servers. Now your local ISP (Verizon) cannot help the latter half of that. One can hope the end user ISP (in your case Internap Network Services Corporation) will increase their internal bandwidth or router traffic around problem areas.

VAT in Purchase Pricing Procedure

Hi All,
How can i use MWST condition type in my pricing.
Like scenario is as below.
CIF- 100.00
Duty- 50.00
Vat (110*x CIF+ Duty) * 15% - 24.75
here i need to maintain this VAT, but i cannot with tax code through TAX Procedure because freight, insurance, duty are defined in Pricing procedure.
if i maintain through TAX Procedure the above calculation cannot be acheived.
How can i post VAT amount through Purchasing Pricing Procedure.
Advise in this regard is really helpful & highly appreciated.

What are the new pricing and fees for Cs6?

What will I be forced to pay to keep upgrading my Master Collection to the next version (Cs 6)? Can I still purchase Dvd's and install the software on my own computer or will I be forced to move to the non-safe cloud? Where my hardwork can be hacked and stolen! The cloud is worthless to many of us wishing to keep control over copyright and useage rights.I am guessing more people want to keep it the way it is and not shift control over to a hackable cloud. Nothing on the web is safe, so why shift everything over to the cloud and force many of your long time customers to pay monthly fees or the software locks us out. For over 25 years I have bought and paided for Adobe software, where is my monthly kickback for using your software? If this is the wave of the future I guess i have bought my last upgrade!

I think you misunderstand the cloud.
Nobody is going to force you to store your files there. It’s a part of the service that you can use or not use at your own discretion.
As for pricing, if you’re on CS5 or CS5.5 you will be able to buy an upgrade at reduced pricing and continue that route. If you’re on CS4 or earlier you’ll have three choices.
1.       Pay full price for CS5
2.       Move to Creative Cloud for whatever the subscription price is
3.       Stay with what you have.
Hope that helps,
Bob

Report freight charges route wise

Hi
I need to generate the report for Freight charges per tonne route wise(we have implemented Transportation module). Kindly provide me tabels&logic ..
Thanks & Reg
JJ

Hi,
Here is my opinion.
Assign service vendor to partner function of customer master.
Create a condition record for freight charges where in condition records for the same has to be determined through condition technique.
ZFRE - freight condition type to be included in your pricing procedure.
Create a new access sequence for the above condition type (ZFRE)
Now create a z condition table to be assigned to above access sequene.
This condition table should include the fields as below (Select from field catalog):
Customer city code - CITYC
Vendor Number - LIFNR
And if required u can add some more fields in this new condition table.
Maintain condition records for condition type ZFRE.
Create a sales order and check condition record for the ZFRE is being derived or not....if it gets...hope this would resolve your issue.

Jumping gun? Netgear N300 Wireless ADSL2+ modem/router

Hi,
I'm probably jumping the gun here but I've got a Verizon Actiontec GT704WG modem/router and have been disapointed in the last few months by spotty wireless and internet connectivity when nothing else in my house has changed. In addition, I need to make a non-network-ready external HD a network drive so either have to have a NAS adapter (incredibly difficult to find at a local store) and I'm awaiting information on whether or not I have to format (again) my already FAT32 file system drive for an adapter to recognize the drive or whether or not the adapter will work without re-formatting my drive. The work around is the Netgear N300 Wireless ADSL2+ modem router because it will allow me to attach the non-network ready drive without an additional NAS adapter.
However, after reading all the problems that people have with third-party modem/routers and Verizon DSL I'm a little concerned about trying to hook this up as a solution. So I have some questions:
1. Do I have to put the Actiontec GT704WG into bridge mode as Verizon recommends or can I get rid of the Actiontec altogether and just use the new modem/router?
2. I have no idea if I have ADSL+ service with Verizon. Assume I can call and find out or get the info from my account page. But if I do not have that service, will the new modem/router work with basic ADSL service that Verizon provides (ok, that's my really dumb question)?
3. If it's better to just stick with the Verizon modem/router and get a NAS adapter does anyone have a recommendation on a reasonably priced adapter? I don't want a NAS enclosure as I'm not really interested in breaking my external drive and removing the guts so I'd prefer a stand-alone adapter.
4. If I can get rid of the Actiontec altogether, can someone provide some assistance for the proper settings to get me setup without too much fiddling? I'm so sick of spending hours trying to troubleshoot computer issues!
I have an older PC wired into the Actiontec, a network printer attached to the Actiontec, and am running windows XP pro on the PC and have a laptop that is running windows 7. Evil Empire Microsoft has made the lovely choice to make it difficult sometimes for the two OS to communicate and I'm tired of leaving the PC on all the time so that I can use my external drive (if Win7 cooperates) as a network drive through the PC. I'd rather have it as a real network drive operating independently of the PC and point my iTunes, word processing, and database programs to the network drive rather than trying to get them to run through the PC into the external drive.
I wish Verizon would offer more choices on modem/routers, especially ones that offer you the option to add a usb storage device as a network asset!
Thanks for any help! I know I'm jumping the gun a bit, but I'd like to return the new modem/router ASAP if it's not going to do what I need without tons of hassle.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Since the Netgear you have is a DSL modem, there is no need to use the ActionTec. Disconnect it from the line and keep it around as a spare modem should you ever need it for troubleshooting purposes. Also, even though the modem you are buying is marketed as an ADSL2+ modem, the technology is specced to be backwards compatible with traditional ADSL. The ActionTec you currently have is an ADSL2+ modem itself, so that should back up that statement enough. The only thing you need to make sure you verify before switching the ActionTec out for the Netgear is what authentication mode the ActionTec is using. This can be set to either PPPoE or DHCP (shows as Routed Bridge mode) and should show up on the main status page when you visit the ActionTec's web inteface. If you're using PPPoE, you should have no issues getting the Netgear to work. If you're using DHCP, you will need to either close the MAC address of the ActionTec into the Netgear, or leave the modem overnight before you are able to obtain an IP address.
Otherwise the Netgear depends on how you decide to set it up. If you set it up through the Web Interface (http://192.168.1.1/ for Netgears, normally), you need to make sure the DSL Virtual Circuit is set to use 0/35, VPI of 0, VCI of 35. The modem should auto-detect this on first boot. Additionally, if you're using PPPoE you'd need to use your Verizon Username and Password to connect the modem. If you set it up using the Setup CD, it should do all of that heavy lifting.
ReadySHARE (what you're looking to set up with the External Hard Drive) uses the same Windows File and Sharing setup, however it does it using Samba shares, FTP and HTTP since the router runs Linux. The reliability you see might remain the same, but I suppose it's one of those things you need to wait and see how it works once the router is set up. Just remember, the speeds to the drive will not be as fast as going through a PC with better hardware under the hood.

Problem facing in pricing routin

Dear Sir,
Calculation routine is not running properly in pricing.
I have one scenario as below mentioned.
If we have change sales order END Date that time system will active my new condition type ZDDC.
After that system will calculate value as below mentioned.
Check Days diff = 2 (like First END date is 02.03.2014 and New END Date is 03.03.2014),
ZDDC rate RS.10 maintained in the system based on UOM and Sales Organization.
Also check my sales order QTY 100 EA.
Calculation = 2 * 10 * 100 = Rs. 2000, It should be pass in my field. KWERT.
I have done procedure as below mentioned.
Created new condition Type ZDDC based QTY.
Created new routing 600 but not working perfect. So please provide routine problem solution ya other solution.
Thanks
Arun

Table for existing PO/Sch.Agg pricing condition types

Hi Experts,
Which table will have PO / Sch.Aggrement - pricing condition types with values as maintained in PO (like freight / P&F etc). I have the input of PO/Sch.Agg ref, plant, vendor & material.
We have created Z condition types for freight/ P&F and using the same in PO/Sch.Agg.
Thanks,
Jeeva

HI,
Same status.
In table EKKO also field "Doc. condition no." is updating for PO only, which is same as we find in EKKI. For Sch.Agg it it not updating the Doc.Condition no and remains blank.
Any way i have gone thro a different route. since I am looking for delivery condition for a completed GR, I can pick the conditions from EKBZ table.
Thanks.
Jeeva.
