Well it looks pretty much 99% sure that we will be moving in on Nov 1 to
|
|
the new house. I think the only thing that stops us now are acts of
|
|
dieties and total economic collapse..so no one mention the dow for the
|
|
next few weeks..
|
|
|
|
In preperation we drove to Best Buy tonight and picked up the test core
|
|
for the wifi net. I got a linksys BEFW11S4(1) for the router/hub/wireless
|
|
ap/firewall/etc and a linksys wifi pcmcia card for the laptop
|
|
|
|
I made one false move so it took about 30 mins all told to set up the
|
|
card, the router, and the other 3 machines in the house on the wire ether
|
|
hub. All vfery neat very easy and very very cool set up via the
|
|
webinterface. I have to dig into the firewall/nat/routing features some
|
|
more (i have been reading up the wifi security blackpaper on ars technica)
|
|
but all in all a smooth move.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now the place im at now, the house soon to be the ex house, has lots of
|
|
funky things going on in the walls and in the area. We are in ,
|
|
essentialy, a gravel pit..recption of all types suck and transmisions get
|
|
goofy inside the pit. That being said... with 2 walls and 40 feet between
|
|
the AP and the pcmica card (no external antena on it) Im still getting
|
|
11mbs and at least 60% goodness.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some cool things about the new house...its a 1912 job so no metal works
|
|
inthe walls to speak of , mostly wood and plaster. We dont have a
|
|
microwave and our cordless phines are on 900mhz (yea so I can use my bear
|
|
cat to listen in on some calls, with kids in the house is that such a bad
|
|
thing? Ben or heather, if you read this years from now...well by then I
|
|
hope youare better at countermoeasures:)- )
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
