The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

secure internet connection to basement suite in my house

Asked by bswiftly in Network Security, Network Switches & Hubs, Wireless Local Area Network

Tags:

I have a basement sutie in my new house, and am offering internet as an included utility.

I am a software developer so literate to some extent with networking, but I just want to know the best way I can secure this.   If I change my workgroup to some cryptic password - could that secure it enough?

I have the following setup:  I have a tower PC that I am using as basically a file storage box. 3 mapped drives that I connect to wirelessly via my laptop.   These can NOT be accessible to my tenant.

Currently I have a D-Link Wireless N router (the white one - model escapes me at the moment).
Can I do this just with the workgroup change?  Do I need hardware?  

I'm also thinking of limiting bandwidth which I think I'd need a pretty expensive switch.  If there is a way to determine bandwidth on a specific port, that would be great!  This is the secondary question, the first one is the one i really want the answer to.
