    XP file sharing upload speed tied to adapter's download speed (BIZARRE!)

    This is the strangest networking problem I have ever seen. I have a Belkin N router with my winXP desktop attached to it via a wn311b netgear N PCI card. The router is connected by cat 5 to a win2003 server. Router is connected to an ADSL2+ netopia router that is bridged. In trying to backup...

    is something wrong with my house or do i have the worst luck with PSUs??

    A few years ago my 20 pin atx fortron 350w PSU melted into the motherboard connector. Surprisingly it still worked (!) it just had charred black plastic everywhere. I kept using it until it kept getting more burned and then torched the motherboard. I bought a new motherboard/cpu/ram combo on...

    can you recommend a PTZ webcam?

    I want a camera that I can hook up to my network that will allow remote control viewing of whatever is in front of the camera. I want to be able to pan tilt and zoom the camera via web software remotely. It does not have to be super quality but I need it to be able to zoom and to check things...

    microsoft networking with two networks

    We have 3 computers at work and they are set up with static ip addresses that are internet accessible (not intranet addresses when ipconfig is run). I recently added a wireless router to one of them and it now accesses the internet through that router. I cloned the mac address of its network...

    Wireless AND ethernet capability in laptop card?

    I need a card that has a jack for ethernet and that has wireless capability. The two networks do not have to be active at the same time. My mom's laptop network jack is broken (I think...) and she also wants wireless but she doesn't have the PCMCIA / USB slots to give up to give her both in...

    Form Submission Problems in XP (probably not the browser)

    Hi, Here's my problem: certain websites won't work when I press a submit button on a form . For example, I can go to paypal and log in and try to pay someone but when I click send money, no go. Another example, trying to catch up on some American Airlines AAdvantage miles, I can fill in all...

    Linux - win4lin, usb 2.0

    Has anyone successfully patched in the win4lin 2.4.18 patch into a 2.4.19-pre/rc kernel? I need usb 2.0 support (which appears to be only functional in 2.4.19+) and win4lin support. Any suggestions or similar encounters?

    packet forwarding, dual NICs, linux, a little of everything :-)

    I know there has to be a way to do this because it's the basis of broadband networking, I just don't know how to do it. What I want to do is setup two NICs (10mbps) in my PC. One will go to my network and the other will go to a hub that splits another network connection between my PC (primary)...

    usb 2.0 under linux with cdrecord and iomega predator 24x10x40

    Every time I use cdrecord it writes at 4x for CDRW or 6x for CDR, indicating that it is still using the usb 1.1 standard. This, however, seems contradictory to what /proc/bus/usb/devices says: T: Bus=03 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#= 1 Spd=12 MxCh= 1 B: Alloc= 0/900 us ( 0%), #Int=...

    ata133 raid in linux with promise pdc20269 maxtor controller

Anyhow, I have an IWILL kk266-r with the on board raid controller. However, this raid controller is udma and I'd...
