Windows Vista Torrent D-Link DAP-2590 AirPremier N Dual Band PoE Wireless Access Point w/ Plenum-rated Chassis This review is from: D-Link DAP-2590 AirPremier N Dual Band PoE Wireless Access Point w/ Plenum-rated Chassis Pros: easy setuplots of optionsgood event loggingvery versatilefeels very well-built3Xantennasincredible signal strengthworks great as a wireless bridge (wireless network adapter connected to a system using generic network connection by ethernet cable instead of PCI or USB) Cons: awkward GUIbeware using this in WDS mode with WDS capable APs/routers of other brands Other Thoughts: I've installed eight of these over the last two years and they stand out to me because of their build quality and their incredible range. Also, they are one of the few APs at this price point that can do WDS+AP in a chain. That is to say you can "daisy-chain" three of these together to get one continous line of wlan signal coverage. just make sure that if you're going to use wireless security for WDS, you use WPA/WPA2 WITH AES. Works great for Mac and iPads too

The Woops of WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) raises its ugly head again WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) is an alternate on-ramp to a Wi-Fi network. Thinking that clicking on the name of a network and entering its password is too hard, the Wi-Fi Alliance came up with the WPS protocol back in 2007. WPS allowed for both push-button and PIN-based access to Wi-Fi networks. Passwords? A recent ZDNet article mentioned that the WPS protocol has been enhanced to include Near Field Communication (NFC). The ZDNet article is typical of a large journalistic failure in that it omits the security issues. Change the password and WPS will happily provide the new one to anyone patient enough to ask repeatedly. The security issues with WPS PIN numbers were revealed at the end of 2011 (I blogged about it in January 2012). All along I have felt that the security issues did not get their due in the press. Optimists will point out that WPS can be disabled in the router firmware. Routers are typically marketed to consumers based on features, not on security.

UNetbootin - Homepage and Downloads Howto replace microdrive with compactflash in LifeDrive - HowTo Wiki - a Wikia wiki Headline text Edit The Palm LifeDrive uses an internal 4GB microdrive, which is partitioned into a 64MB storage heap, a 22MB "ROM" image, and a 3.73GB user volume. To the user, the 64MB appears as program & data memory and the 3.73GB as the "LifeDrive" volume. Older Palms like the Palm V used SDRAM as program & data RAM, which required power to maintain storage. More recent Palms like the Palm TX use non-volatile flash memory for program & data memory, thus safeguarding against data loss if the batteries run down. The LifeDrive design utilizes a Hitachi 4GB microdrive instead of any flash memory. As a possible hack to improve battery life, performance and reliability, some users have attempted to replace the internal 4GB microdrive with compact flash cards. This document will describe the successful methods used in replacing the LD microdrive with a compact flash card, as well as some unsuccessful methods. Quick steps Caution! Hot-sync your LD to backup your programs and data. dd --list \\.

8 tips to protect your business’ wireless network Enamored by Wi-Fi’s convenience, we tend to be blind to its risks. Many routers are riddled with security holes that leave your data exposed to enterprising hackers and other intruders. And if you’re running a business, the jeopardy is even greater. To keep your wireless network secure, follow these eight security tips. Change the default password If you didn’t do it when you set up your router, immediately change the default password. Use only WPA2 encryption The unidirectional nature of Wi-Fi signals necessitates the use of encryption to prevent neighbors or malicious parties from spying on your online activities. Use a complex passphrase Despite the lack of known weaknesses in WPA2, it is susceptible to brute force attacks when used with an easily guessed passphrase. Avoid common SSID names One common tip is to not broadcast the SSID (Service Set Identification). However, it’s good practice to not use the default SSID, as well as common names. Disable WPS Set up a guest network
