I am looking at setting up a wireless network at home and since a novice, trying to find out which one of these routers is best for the price. Security is the main issue. Reliability/Price comes in a close second. I am not too concerned about paying a little extra if it warrants it but do not...

Yes, I took a print out of the linked Microcenter page as well as Staples price matching page and the manager was not over excited about it but told the clerk to go ahead and price match it.

Go to Staples who has these Belkin cables for $15.98 and price match Microcenters Pro Series LAN Cable 25-Foot; Gray A3L79125S for $2.87. Final price after 110% price match= $1.60. Staples website only shows the black cables, but B&M has the gray. Staples price match policy does not specify that...

Anybody have any ideas.

I recently purchased the Siemens 2602 wired router and trying to set up a network with 2 printers along with a desktop PC and a notebook. The 2 printers are both HP's: a 4L and a 940C.

Does anyone know if the HP ZT 1000 is USB 2.0 or 1.1? I see no mention on HP's site just that it has 1 PCMCIA slot and firewire. Also how good is the Video Graphics ----S3 Savage4 AGP -- 4X 3D Graphics? Thanks.

I would like to hear from all the people who have the Verbatim branded Cendyne 32X burner how loud it is? I have read in different posts that it is louder than the Lite On even though the Verbatim is a rebadged Lite On. Not sure why, but would it be more quiet by turning the Verbatim back to a...

Is this one any different initially from the Cendyne 32X 5w OC model other than it starts out as a 40X(possible same with different firmware)? Also, does OfficeMax have in store coupons like Staples? Thanks.

I picked up a Verbatim on Saturday but from what I have read, I would like to have a Lite on because: **firmware updates **tech support/warranty should any problem arise **cool utilities I know the Verbatims can be changed back to the Lite on but would like to have a true lite-on without the...

A friend of mine is considering a wireless network and asked me to set it up. The main priorities are that it be stable and secure. Any recommendations would be very much appreciated as I am a newbie when it comes to networking. A little background follows: Both computers are desktops and...

I leave my system on 24/7 and upon coming out of suspend/sleep mode, I am unable to print to my HP Laserjet 4L as it keeps displaying an error window saying it is out of paper. Once I shut down and/or perform a restart, it prints normally. The HP 4L is connected via parallel port. I have a HP...

I recently bought this board from newegg and am having trouble with it booting up. After changing some BIOS settings, the system will not boot. I have tried to clear the CMOS memory on jumper 4 with intermittent success. I leave the jumper on 1-2 for a few seconds, nothing happens......leave...
