Warcom’s New Server & New Home!

Friday, January 15th, 2010

Update: The server transfer was moved forward and proceeded last night.  The majority of Warcom components and services are back online, and orders can now be processed as normal.

However, our Knowledge Base and e-Mail/Ticketing system are currently offline, which means you may experience delays in getting replies to your emails or accessing our knowledge base.

For any questions, we recommend calling us on 1300 WARCOM (927 266) for a speedy answer.

——————————————————–

Afternoon Everyone!

We’re very pleased to announce that Warcom is on the move!

This relocation has been in the pipeline for a while now, and thankfully we’re now in the final stages of moving over to our new server, in our new home at http://www.dedictedservers.net.au

A fair bit of planning and research has gone into this move, so fingers crossed everything goes to plan.

Here’s the specs of our new beast!

  • Dell 1950 with DRAC
  • Dual XEON Quad Core 5405
  • 16Gb RAM
  • 2 x 500Gb SATA

There may be a short period of down time early this Sunday morning, however we do expect the disruption to be minimal.

We look forward to offering you are much faster shopping experience on our funky new shiny speed machine!

- Paul.

Introducing The All New Billion 7800GZ!

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

This little stocking filler finally is the answer to a question we get asked rather frequently: ‘Do you have a modem that does not require a 3G USB Modem to use Mobile Internet?

We now can answer: ‘Yes, we do!’  Let me introduce the Billion BIPAC 7800GZ!

Billion BiPAC 7800GZ

Billion BiPAC 7800GZ

This brilliant unit allows you to just insert a Sim Card directly into the unit, not requiring the additional expense of buying a compatible USB 3G Modem.

To list some of the features this brilliant device has:

  • An ADSL2+ Modem built in to allow you to still take advantage of your hard-line connection, so you can have the best of both worlds.
  • 4 Wired 10/100 Ethernet Ports to connect different systems, printers and even NAS (Network Attached Storage) to your network
  • Wireless G Networking Built In for all wireless devices (Mobile Phones, Laptops etc) compatible with Wireless G Networking
  • The ability to change an Ethernet Port to another WAN Port, allowing another separate modem to be used for internet.
  • Secure VPN with Powerful DES/3DES/AES to help make sure your data is safe
  • Quality of Service Control with Traffic Prioritization and Bandwidth Management
  • SOHO Firewall Security with DoS Prevention and Packet Filtering
  • Supports IP Television

A Great Wireless Router for the Family!

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

We at Warcom are continuously getting asked:

  • Whats the cheapest way to either add more network ports to our home network?
  • Is there an easy way to add wireless networking capabilities to the home

Well we sell a unit that does both of these things easily, and its selling for a great price too!

Allow me to introduce you to the:

Linksys WRT54GL Wireless G Router

Linksys WRT54GL Wireless Broadband Router

Linksys WRT54GL Wireless Broadband Router

Selling for only $89~ at the time of writing, this little beauty offers an absolute ton of features:

4 Port Switch

Have you run out of ports for new networked devices with your current setup?  Then the WRT54GL is the answer to your problem!

This device features four 10/100 Megabit a Second Cabled ports to allow you to add more computers, networked printers and even networked scanners to your home network.  All you need to do is plug and play, in most situations it will work straight away without any advanced setup needed.

If you have a heap of cabled devices, drop us a line and one of the Warcom team will be able to recommend a more suitable and cost effective solution to suit your needs.

Wireless G Networking

This is by far our most asked question.  Families want to add wireless capabilities to their home network but don’t want to replace their current trusty modem.  This device will allow you to add Wireless G networking to your home for an affordable price.  All you need to do is plug an ethernet cable from one of the ports on your modem to one of the ports to the WRT54GL and you are away.  You just follow the simple instructions provided with the modem, turn on the wireless capabilities and set a password so neighbours don’t steal your internet and access your private files.

Once its set up you will have the fast Wireless G Networking broadcast to call devices and computers in range, and will never have to worry about cables again to network your systems!

It also offers some of the latest wireless encryption technology which helps prevent unwanted eyes from accessing your internet and the computers connected to the net.

Please Note: This modem does not offer an inbuilt modem.  If you need a device that allows you to connect to the internet on its own please give us a call and we will recommend the best one that suits your needs.

Ready to buy or Have a Question?

If you want more information on the WRT54gL head over to Warcom today!

The Warcom phones and email system are manned between 10 am – 6 pm Monday to Friday Eastern Standard Time.  If you want to purchase just add the product to your cart via our online store and follow the easy prompts, or just give us a call and one of the Warcom Team will process the order there and then for you and answer any questions you may have.

We are contactable at service@warcom.com.au or via 1300 WARCOM (927 266).
