    New Home Pre-Wired ... Where is the other end of the cable?

    That's a great point. I'm going to call the insurance company shortly.

    New Home Pre-Wired ... Where is the other end of the cable?

    I can do that sort of thing myself without the use of that device. Just hooking up a battery to two wires and then using a multimeter on the other end will tell me which wire is which. The problem is I have no idea where the other ends of the wires are, they seem to be missing.

    New Home Pre-Wired ... Where is the other end of the cable?

    Yep, I've tried all of that, no luck :( Yep, I've looked in there, not much to see. :( Thanks! :D

    New Home Pre-Wired ... Where is the other end of the cable?

    Contacting the builder yielded nothing. I think he contracted the wiring out to a 3rd party and never got the blueprints, he suggested we "contact an expert" to help us. :rolleyes: Will that cable checker you linked be able to detect through walls?

    New Home Pre-Wired ... Where is the other end of the cable?

    My family recently purchased a new construction that was supposedly pre-wired with ethernet in every room. I was upset when I found out the cables are CAT 5e (I was hoping for CAT 6 or better), but here is the real problem: There is a panel in an upstairs bedroom that contains a panel for all...

    Vista IP Forwarding

    This thing is too complex for me to start trying to do that. It seems (actually I think I'm pretty sure) that the devs do NOT want people to use proxies. I don't care though, there's no other way for me due to my firewall conditions =(

    Vista IP Forwarding

    Hi all, I'd like to setup IP forwarding (not quite sure that is the correct terminology) on Vista32. My use case for this is as follows: 1. I have an app that tries to connect to hardcoded ip X at port P1 - X: P1 2. My firewall is blocking port P1 3. Using SSH tunneling, I set P1 as...

    Reciever + Speaker Setup

    Hi all, I plan on hooking up xbox/ps3/wii/computer sound to one set of speakers. I don't know much about sound peripherals, but I'm guessing that I will need a receiver that has some optical audio (for the xbox) and some analog inputs as well as input coming from my sound card. Can anyone...

    LCD Desk Arm Mount

    Hey all, I'm looking for a arm mount for a Dell 2408WFP that would clamp on to the rear of my desk and be able to move the screen up/down/left/right and pivot/tilt as well. Can anyone recommend a quality product? Most of what I've seen are wall/ceiling mounts which is not what I would like...

    Looking for a 1TB

    This is NOT good as I will be using these in a raid and I have an NV chipset... Do the 1TB F1's have this bug as well?

    Looking for a 1TB

    I'm looking for a few 1TB's to put into a fileserver running Samba for a few users. I'm more interested in performance rather than how quiet the drive is. Either way, I was looking at the Samsung F1 but it seems like they do not preform very well in multi-user environments. Although my...

    How would I limit user storage space?

    Yep, Samba is smart enough to report the quota left instead of the total filesystem free! yay
