Most likely it's technically okay to use a snowblower on the roof if you're careful, it's just that with all that snow, you could slip or cause more damage to the roof if you're not careful, and really, how many Americans are careful with anything ? http://www.descentbb.net/ubb/smile.gif And ah, yes...

Trademark law is very sticky, and if you don't protect it, then you lose it. So needless to say, it's something that businesses will take very seriously. If this kid's similar-sounding business name can impact MS's trademark, then they absolutely have to fight. They may not really want to have to go...

Well right, what will happen is that on each keystroke, the corresponding actions will be executed. Might be able to get it working in observer mode and switch out if it bothers you, though I haven't tried this myself. The special thing about the commands is that the specific sequence of keystrokes ...

Well, for now it's patched up something like what Krom posted (connecting the two routers, and set up the addresses on the same subnet), and download speeds over wireless improved from 95 minutes to 63 minutes (still slow for some reason, but still 33% better), but the true test was using a wired co...

The problem I'm sure is on the server side, as it's an alpha-stage MMORPG, so of course not everything will be working: Whispers in Akarra (http://www.akarra.net). Usually things seems to work just fine, but at the current stage, multiple clients behind NAT just don't seem to be liked by the server ...

Actually, I am talking about two WAN IPs (one router is given one IP by the modem, the other a second, and then within the routers is normal NAT addresses). I do have more computers hooked up, but for this scenario, the only ones that really matter are the two I mentioned. The setup is something lik...

How to go between routers on a LAN

All right, let's see who here is smart. http://www.descentbb.net/ubb/tongue.gif Not sure if it's actually possible or not, but here goes anyway. I've got two IPs at home, so I've got two routers hooked up to a switch, which is hooked up to the cable modem. I'd like to be able to locally go between t...

The popup says that each requires the capacity label, but the one PDF I checked said that either the capacity label or UPC would be needed. So even if one does say capacity label only, then the other you can use the UPC on.

But you can never be sure......
