And the answer is YES. I am sitting in the backyard [yikes it is WINDY today] as far away from the where the card is as possible and the signal is stronger than in my room - less building in the way - and the link is about the same speed. Now, what about out the front? [

Actually I just tested the
link rate and it wasn't too shabby. So I am pretty pleased. The test is to see if it will work in the backyard :) But I am pretty confident about that. Thanks Preator. Hey, why not click that green logo over there and set his counter spinning. [

Wireless:) I am writing this from in my bedroom, thanks to the card that Preator brought over and put in the PC out the back room. When we first put it in we could barely get a connection in the same room as the card. But today is was in the loungeroom and though "wonder if any networks are around" fired up the ariport card in the laptop and opened MacStumber and POW a network appeared - quite strong too. I got very excited thinking I had found a local wlan when I realised it was the one out the back.
I then did some more thinking and wondered if it would work in my room. So I changed the router software to use the wireless card and went into my room - where I am now enjoying [slower than ethernet but still usable] interent access via a wireless network :) Yeah! [Comment] [GuestBook] [Archive]

Whirlpool comments on Wireless Networking Xone gets a mention as does Optus - hmmm. Oh and WiFi - I hate it. Airport is a much cooler name. Although it can be confusing. [

Supervising a Year 11 Yearly which is being done on computers - I helped set some of it up and it seems to have all worked :) - some people may think that the end of term is a bludge cos all the kids stay at home - well it could be except that what it means is that I can get a lot of work done I couldn't before and so I usually find myself working harder near the end of the term rather than easier.
May I just send a shout out to all those Year 12 students who no longer have to go to school :) Congratulations - don't forget though that the Big Quiz is still ahead, so don't party too hard - yet. And take care, not just in what you do, but in what the people around you are doing. And maybe even shine a bit of Jesus difference into the world around you.
And to those 100 or so doofus HSC students who trashed Bondi last night - what a bunch of self-centred waterbuffalo wallowing in the mud of thoughtfulness - if they are the future, things aint gonna get any better. [Comment] [GuestBook] [Archive]

our very first warpost - after a long night in the WarRenault we finally hit pay dirt on Parramatta Rd at SIlverwater of all places :) - it was fun and well worth it. [
