3Com - Mind Blowing Wireless Range!

Advantages: Awesome Value for Money, Great Setup Utility
Disadvantages: Not the best looking object in the world!

...of 100 metres. Seeing as this network would have to span two outer walls, I was a little concerned that the unit wouldn't be able to perform. Nevertheless, convinced by my earlier experience with the first one, I pressed ahead and ordered it. Upon opening the box, the contents were spread out on the table, and once again I was impressed with 3Com's offering. The unit itself, the PSU, rubber feet, a long RJ11 telephone cable, a long RJ45 ethernet cable, and various certification stickers for safety use (if installed in a public/business location). Following the manual's instructions, I connected the router to the mains and powered on and verified the correct lights were on. I then plugged in the first computer via the ethernet cable and immediately the lights on the front panel indicated a hardwired connection had been made. Now I...

Another Cable Review!

Advantages: Durable; Brand name; Reliable
Disadvantages: Relatively expensive; Overkill for a 56k connection

...Cables are heavily underrated. Everyone always thinks their computer will run faster if they upgrade their hardware or OS, but the humble cable almost always gets ignored. So, Belkin came up with this 'high speed' premium cable to help convince people that they need a new cable to make their lives complete, or rather, make their internet connection 'as fast as a speeding bullet'. The Internet Modem cable, unsurprisingly, is used to connect your modem, be it internal or external, to your standard BT wall outlet. On one end you have the typical RJ-11 plug, and on the other, a BT plug has already been connected. This means you don't have to go out and buy any converters. The RJ-11 plug is of similar style to some of Belkin's RJ-45 plugs, with tabs protruding up the sides to prevent you from accidentally disconnecting the plug from its...

3Coms

Advantages: Reliable
Disadvantages: Nothing special

...3Com Card This card is a nice card but when it come to networking cads there is only two things that make a difference one being the speed, you only tend to find three types of network card all at various speeds ranging form 10 mbps then you get a 10/100 mbps and just recently you can now get hold of a 10/100/1000mbps cars that can use any of these three standards. The card in question will only run at either ten mega bits per second or one hundred mbps depending on you other hard ware so this is something to keep in mind when buying this card. If you are using a Rj45 Crossover network cable linking two machines directly and both cards will work a 10/100 then you will receive a speed of 100mbps but if the other card in the other machine is only running a 10mbps you will only get speed of 10mbps the speed of the slowest card...

Advantages: best MP3 site that I've visited and easy to use
Disadvantages: Graphics on the site could be improved

...gear and holds auctions. However, I personally would not use the shopping service due to the danger of credit card fraud, which I think is still a threat as, I believe, the security systems used are not entirely full proof. The site has a search option which makes it very easy to find what you are looking for. It is reguarly updated and so has all the latest releases as well as which it has a news service informing you on the latest happenings in the world of music. MP3.com also has a developers network and an artists community which allows people in the industry to make contacts and promote products. The Business to Business service offers people business solutions and the site supports a fund raising program which helps schools, churches and non- profit organisations. So, if you want free music then visit this site NOW!!!!!...

Amazing Little Cable

Advantages: Synchronizes mobile phone to PC
Disadvantages: None

...the files from the phone can be viewed in the computer. Even messages and phonebook entries in my mobile phone can appear in my PC. I can then choose the pictures and videos that I want to transfer to my PC. Transferring wallpapers and ringtones is easy from my PC to my mobile phone. I select my favorite songs in mp3 format from the internet, save them in my PC then transfer them to my mobile phone. I also download videos from youtube using youtube-downloader, save them in my PC and transfer them to my phone. THE MOST AMAZING THING There was a time when my internet server was down for 2 days. In Nokia PC Suite, there's a 'connect to the internet' feature. It's hard to believe but I got connected to the internet using my Nokia CA-42 Mobile phone cable. I just click the 'Connect to internet' icon and my phone became my internet modem...

Official Wii Component Video Cable

Advantages: Far better picture than standard composite, better looking games
Disadvantages: Expensive, Only needed for larger screens 32" or greater

...After the release of the little white bundle of joy on the 8/12/2006 people were given a composite cable to show off their new shinny new console. AV enthusiasts all know a composite signal is the poor quality option for showing video on their TV's - what people really want is RGB or Component video input. As console manufactures are out to make a profit they usually bundle the cheapest and most compatible option with the console and then release upgrades to that product for people who need or want it. Nintendo understand this and have released two video upgrade options - the Wii RGB cable or the Wii Component cable. Lets get things straight from the off, The Nintendo Wii is not a High Definition Console, What this cable does offer is a enhanced image resolution of 480p. I finally got hold of the component video cable after...

Working of a cable modem

Advantages: ---
Disadvantages: ---

...broadband, which are available in India, are the cable and the DSL options. (The other option is Ethernet). In my previous opinion i had discussed DSL and now i will discuss the cable modem. Cable Modem Cable Modem is becoming a popular alternative among home users who prefer it to dial up access. Cable Internet means bringing the net to your house through the same cable that brings you TV channels into your TV. This is much simpler than the DSL network. It consists of the Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS ) at the cable guy’s place or your provider and the cable modem at your place. The cable modem at your place will let you access the net through your Cable TV ( CATV ) network. These are of 3 types :- 1) External Modem - This is the most common type of modem used. It is similar to the dial-up external modem. One side...

NTL cable modem package

Advantages: Brilliant. The cable modem is the biggest and most decisive factor in this package and is worth the money alone!
Disadvantages: The NTL digital TV is a bit poor and expensive to get the extra channels (compared to SKY)

...functioning installation was 14 days for me (including weekends). I am fully satisfied and am saving so much cash its unreal. I would highly recommend this package although some of the other packages they offer (without the cable modem) look a little less enticing. A definite recommendation from me. A HELPFUL TIP: This package cost £10 more than the next package down (owing to the cable modem) but in this one you are permanently connected to the internet (no dialing up ever again!:)). Go to www.paysu.com and download their adticker (its called paystation on there). This sits at the bottom of your screen and shows you adverts. If you put it on when you are not at your computer, it will make you more than £10 a month (only works out this way due to cable modems speed!). There are other similar ones out. Just find one that doesnt require...

Review of NTL

Wii component cable- Well worth the money

Advantages: sharper/brighter picture, opens up more ports on TV, saves hassle.
Disadvantages: quite expensive for a simple console improvement

...The Nintendo Wii component video cable really is a sound investment if you are the owner of an HD/ LCD TV, and obviously a nintendo Wii. Before i bought it, i had trouble with the picture quality and contrast on many of the games. Games such as Wii Sports were fine, but more of the action/adventure games such as Zelda or Splinter Cell give a very dark picture which can sometimes be hard to make out what was happening. The only way i could combat this problem was to adjust the contrast on my television which did help, but was alot of hassle. With the component cable, the picture is not only much brighter, but much sharper and defined. It gets rid of the hassle of having to turn the contrast back down after playing on the Wii and improves the overall gaming experiance. Another bonus is that on your HD TV, this cable plugs into...
