    Came home today to find this box on the dining table. Guess my elder brother got it. Need to set up a vista computer to stream media to this device.

    DGS-1008D versus SD2008 (1)


    June 6th, 2008 | Tags: , | Posted in Reviews, Tech

    I chose the DGS-1008D after comparing the specifications and looks of both DGS-1008D and SD2008. Why? My purpose is to extend my network but at the same time get all the possible benefits (power savings, unique features, etc)!

    Running out of ethernet ports (1)


    June 5th, 2008 | Tags: , | Posted in Life, Tech

    I am running out of connectivity points on my DIR-655! Well, there are only 4 ethernet ports and they are connected to server, workstation, DNS-323 and DNS-313! My IP camera is still lying around. I do have a 24 port rank mount switch but then it is only fast ethernet and takes up a lot of space.

    I am now looking at 8 port gigabit ethernet switches from Linksys and D-Link. Wonder which one would be more worthwhile to spend money on. Going to check out their price from Challenger or CyberActive.

    Seems like the gigabit switch from D-Link boasts power savings (Green Ethernet)  while Linksys is a normal gigabit switch. Design wise, D-Link’s DGS-1008D looks slightly nicer than Linksys’s SD2008. Must see which one my wallet can afford then. Hope the D-Link one isn’t too expensive!

    Something to clarify… (1)

    Gosh, this person must be working for D-Link

    This is what people think when they see the NAS, network switch and DGL-4300. Like all consumers, I like to make sure that I spent my money on quality stuffs. After reading reviews, I feel that these equipments are good, hence I got it and blogged about it. Perhaps I should stop sharing the applications I have compiled and keep for my own use.

    Gosh, this person must be working for Linksys

    With the WRT54G in the category listing plus the fact that I got 2 equipment from the WRT54G family and spend time exploring OpenWRT packages on it doesn’t mean that I am working for Linksys.

    Gosh, this person must be working for Nokia

    I got the N80 and I just wish to share my findings.

    Channel 6 is some frequency I should really avoid

    Packet Rate

    Got a piece of WRT54GS recently. It came with 32mb of ram. 16mb more ram than my current WRT54G! More ram = more stable? Something to be proven. At least, it is more stable for kismet.
