Are there any features that the current Extreme AC is missing?

I'd like to upgrade to a new Extreme AC, though I do not need one just yet, I could benefit from faster home networking though. What I'm wondering is if this first gen Extreme AC router is missing any features that should have been included with it based on current industry standards? In other words, should I wait a bit longer or is the current AC likely to be the same one sold for the next few years? I remember that there were a few iterations of the Extreme N with different frequency ranges, this is an example of what I'm referring to.
Thanks.

... What I'm wondering is if this first gen Extreme AC router is missing any features that should have been included with it based on current industry standards?
Doubtful. It complies with all the standards that can be complied with, and the 802.11ac standard was just finalized a few months ago.
There were various upgrades for the 802.11n Extreme but the one you appear to be referring to is its simultaneous dual band capability. The frequencies it uses are accepted international standards for which there have been no changes since it was introduced. There have also been incremental improvements in antenna design. All those improvements have been incorporated in the latest Extreme.
If you want to wait for the next best thing, you are likely to have a very long wait.

  • Are there any rumors that the new iPad will be able to connect to usb thumb drive for iWork or microsoft word?

    Please help, I would like to know if it would be better to buy the new ipad instead of an ipad2

    It will almost certainly not connect directly to USB thumb drives. There's still no USB port, and except for photos on specifically-arranged drives, there have been no indications that such support will be provided via the Camera Connection Kit.
    Regards.

    I have posted this annoying Robles to bugreport.apple.com. Hope I can get locution (although Apple normally will not respond):
    On a software name Appfresh, it alerted me to update my MBPr 15 inches running latest OSX 10.8.2, with Chinese Word List Update 1.2. When I clicked on Software Pdate, app Store return No update available.
    My system have Chinese Word List Update 1.0 installed, and on October 5, 2012, Chinese Word List Update 1.1 was released by Apple, as alerted through AppFresh. However, this update never get updated on m system. I have to manually download chinesewordlistupdate.pkg from reviews.cnet.com/macfixit and install it manually. By doing so, I have Chinese Word List Update 1.1 on my system.
    The same problem occurred again today on November 5, 2012, where Chinese Word List Update is released by Apple. again, it fail to update from Software Update menu.
    Can you please:
    1. Explain why this problem occurred. This is so annoying.
    2. Advise me how can I get this Chinese Word List Date to update to version 1.2. Can you please send me the chinesewordlistupdate.pkg for version 1,2 so that I can manually install it on my system?
    3. How can I prevent similar problem with he subsequent version?
    Why Apple don't make this update standard as other update?
    Support please. Thank for response in advance

    You can set times for your computer to turn on or wake from sleep in the Energy Saver system preference pane using the Schedule... button.

  • Are there any settings in the options (or anywhere else) that I can use to set up an auto confirm and resend without having to manually click the 'resend' butto

    There is a certain website I use that I refresh frequently. Every time I do I get a pop up message labeled ‘Confirm’ with a question mark in it that says;
    “To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier."
    It only seems to be a problem with this one particular site. Are there any settings in the options (or anywhere else) that I can use to set up an auto confirm and resend without having to manually click the ‘resend’ button in the pop up window?

    Hi cor-el, Thanks for responding;
    I am accustomed to seeing this type of pop up on occasion and understand why they are necessary to prevent duplicating orders, payments, etc. I am not using a back button, I wanted to use an auto-refresh app to search for reservation openings on a certain web site and can not because this pop up requires me to manually push a button every time the page refreshes. I am resending the same information every time (a date range) via the POST form, so, was hoping there was a way to either disable, override, or set up and auto response so I can use the auto-refresh app. Your description of how to avoid the pop up didn't entirely make sense to me, but If I have to do a bunch of manual steps in between each refresh attempt it doesn't matter because I'm no better off.

  • Are there any apps that install animated lock screens without jail breaking my iPhone 5?

    Are there any apps that can install animated lock screens without jail breaking the iPhone 5?

    I don't know of any way, except perhaps by using an animated GIF or PNG as your wallpaper. I've never tried it, though.
    I don't recommend jailbreaking your phone, voiding your warranty, and risking ruining the phone just for this feature, however - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743

  • JPA and CAF BO - are there any editors of the JPA data (like CAF)?

    Hello!
    As you know SAP invented some layer above JPA and called it CAF. There is a very convenient way to edit data in CAF.
    But now I have to create a complex database scheme, also with CAF doesn't allow us to work with objects. So we can't use someObject.getChildren().
    So my question is are there any editors of the JPA data (like it is done in CAF)?

    Hi Kirill,
    at the beginning of our project at the end of 2009, we did a deep analysis of CAF since our architect vehemently suggested to use this framework.
    First about the history and purpose of CAF: Initially, CAF was never meant to be a layer above CAF since CAF was invented in the time before EJB 3.0 and JPA standard where writing persistence with EJB 2.x CMP forced the developer to write pages of boiler plate code. This background was approved by SAP.
    With upcoming of JPA, CAF ist mostly useless (except for very simply structured data) and prevents you from writing good software.
    It is easy just to write @Entity, @Id and @OneToMany (for complex database schemes) and CAF forces you to use an ugly, imperformant database scheme (e.g. CAF uses mapping tables even for 1:n relationships, a clear antipattern!)
    The CRUD-services generated with CAF are a pain, too. Usage of pessimistic locking is not up to date for web applications.
    With your complex database schemes, you exceed the limit of CAF.
    (We decided not to use CAF and did never regret this.)
    Concerning your question: There is an "JPA Details" view in NWDS that might help you. It needs JPA Persistence facet on your project to work. Developed by SAP. For JPA beginners, it is a good cheat sheet for JPA annotations and their attributes.
    You do not need more since a JPA POJO is easy to code.
    Regards,
    Rolf

  • Is there any way that the magic mouse might work on the iPad?

    I just got the iPad 3 and is there any way that the magic mouse can work alone or with the keyboard on it? If not, can the mouse work with a PC?

    tonefox wrote:
    The magic mouse can't be used with an iPad simply because Apple has chosen not to include support for it.
    Which is fair enough. Where are you going to put this mouse in order to use it with an iPad... you need a handy flat surface... oh, I know - the iPad screen. Much easier than moving your fingertip around it.
    You would put it the same place you put the wireless keyboard.
    In fact the existing keyboard support is one of the big reasons many of us would like to see mouse support added. You see the problem is that when you use a keyboard you have to reach up and over to tap the iPad screen. By Steve Jobs own admission* the arm tires quickly when you have to do this repeatedly. In this particular situation a mouse would be more ergonomically sound.
    There is also the issue of access for the disabled. Although iOS does have many accessibility option, at present none of them help those with severe spinal damage or certain amputees. Including mouse support means you could also use devices like the "suck and puff"... A mouth controlled joystick designed for people with these disabilities.

  • Are there any plugins that allow photoshop elements to read DDS files?

    I have multiple DDS files that I have been trying to open in Photoshop Elements 8, and a window comes up and says that it cannot open it because it is the "wrong type of file".  I would like to know if there are any plugins I can download to fix this problem.  It would also be helpful if the plugin could save the file in a DDS format, too.  I had been using a trial of Photoshop CS6 and I had a plugin for that, and I recently found an old disc that had Photoshop Elements 8 on it that I downloaded.  Back to the point, are there any plugins that can do this?

    The 32 bit version of this plugin should work in pse 8 if you on windows:

  • Are there any problems using the Ipad while is is plugged into the wall and charging?

    Are there any contraindications using the Ipad while it is plugged into the wall and charging???

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html
