New router
I purchased the follow-up mof my Vigor 2920 router: a 2925Vac one. It has bot 2.4 Ghz and 5 GHz wireless, and supports 8.11ac protocol for LAN traffic. I could prepare it yesterday evening using the 2920 as a example (I could have restored the backup of that one) and installed it this evening. Apart from one thing I forgot: specifying which phone is what number, and setting up opened ports – I set them up but probably forgot to save the configuration – changing wnet without a hitch (Of course I had to apply these changes….) and the result in access, especially Wireless, is eminent. And I run the speed test: Up- and download went up to about 85 MB/s – matching the current speed of 100Mb/sec: This router’s firewall has a throughput of 200Mb/s, 4 times the bandwidth of the 2920….

Next month, my Internet speed will increase to 160 Mb/s (with no extra cost) and this router is fit for that (I got the announcement AFTER I received the router 🙂 ) so I’m ready 🙂

PHP 5.4 retest ahead
I planned a test of PHP 5.4 (dnd MariaDB 5.5) tomorrow evening, hopefully I don’t run into problems now, since I changed the system parameters. I may also need to reboot the server to include latest changes, based on AutoGen reporting.
So far the results of the performance look nice. Memory usage goes up to 75%, as before, bot slowly, and sometimes it seems to be eset. Something to investigate.

New version of WASD (and alamode)
New version of the webserver has been downloaded, and the accompanying monitor program. To be installed tomorrow (as well)
