I need to bridge for wireless and wired clients in the basement of an old Townhouse. (thick plaster walls) Currently wireless reception is fairly poor down there with only 2 bars on the 2.4ghz G network being used by the crappy FIOS router upstairs.
Criteria: Dead stable so I won't have to...
So I have two options:

Mount it in a far corner of the room at eye level and between 7 and 18 feet away from...
I replaced my trusty old WRT54GL a few months ago with a refurb CISCO E4200 router from the CISCO homestore as my main router downstairs in the media room. The WRT54Gl was flashed with DD-WRT and relegated to client bridge upstairs in my office for my media server and wired printer. It worked...
I bought an HP Microserver to serve as a low power/quite file server/web browsing general office machine to replace my old Dell 8250 Pentium IV circa 2003. However, rather than retire the thing I am loading a fresh install of Linux Mint Debian on it and browsing around for an SSD to give it some...
I want to install an SSD in my ACER/Emachines laptop, but still retain my large hard drive for media/backups etc.

I am sick and tired of the builder grade dishwasher in my mid 90's era townhouse. Dishes and utensils come out often with food still on them, and the thing sucks at cleaning anything that hasn't at least been pre-rinsed before putting it in the machine.
My only criteria is that the machine...

I went ahead and ordered the CPU and heatsink..I think mostly because I just have had this computer so long..I want to see how long I can push it. Maybe I will throw Windows 7 on too..who knows.
The smarter move would have probably been to buy a new computer...but I also still have an IBM...

Scenario:
I have a windows Server 2003 system running Apache and a Windows XP client. I want to make the network connection between the two simulate a really high latency conhnection on the order of 1200ms. Is there a way to do that internally in Windows.
I want to upgrade my old Dell Dimension 8250 with a newer AGP card to handle the 2x 23 inch monitors I purchased. What is the fastest AGP 4x compatible card I can purchase. My old Quadro 4 700XGL just does not seem to be keeping up with the higher resolution particularly when I watch Hulu and...
