Question about router versions

I am getting the family a new Imac for christmas. I currently have a 802.11b linksys router and DSL.
Is there any reason to "upgrade" the router to G, N ?

The maximum data rate for 802.11b is 11 MBPS, 802.11g is 54 MBPS and 802.11n is 100 MBPS. If you're going to be sharing files with other computers on your LAN or streaming multimedia files, then the faster the better. Otherwise, if you're not doing file sharing or streaming and your Internet line is below 11 MBPS, you probably won't need the extra speed.

Question about router WRT54 GL

Good afternoon, I have following problem/question about router: WRT54GL.
I configured the router to operate in my network without any problems except for the following:
When I made tests of speed on computer which is connected directly to the cable from my ISP (ethernet, speed 64 mbit /s during download). When I connected the cable from ISP to the router and router is connected to the PC also using ethernet(from router port 1 to the pc) the speed behind a router decreased to 20 mbit. What I am doing wrong? or is it just a limitation in router's performance?
Thanx for any help
Johny Krekan,

Open the setup page of the router.
Set the MTU to Manual and change the size to 1365.
Save the settings and power cycle the router. Check the speed.
Make sure that firmware on your router is latest.

Question about Student version and CS6

Not sure if this is the right place to post this question...
So I have a question about Student&Teacher versions in CS6 - Will there be Student & Teacher version for CS6 too?
P.S Sorry if there are some grammar mistakes.
Hope You understand!
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply Bob,
I was actually referring to this exact page ( CS5.5 Production Premium, Student) http://adobe.ly/H6so7G (non-flash version because links were redirecting) where it doesnt list the offer on the left.
However, after reading this http://store.adobe.com/store/en_us/popup/offer/cs55_cs6_faq.html and this http://store.adobe.com/store/en_us/popup/offer/cs55_cs6_faqchannel.html I'm assuming it must just be an error.
It doesnt mention anything about not including student editions and all offer pages I've seen have a link to the education store.

This is a question about iTunes version 10.5

Hello,
I am running iTunes on several Mac computers (ppc and intel) with version 10.4, as well as my iPhone/iPad. I am being frequently prompted on the computers to upgrade from version 10.4 to 10.5.
However, I do NOT want to use iCloud to store or sync any music. Each of my machines has their own iTunes library, and I am not interested in sharing. So, my question is: If I upgrade from 10.4 to 10.5, will I be required to use iCloud? Is there a way that I can run 10.5 but NOT perform any music sharing with my other computers, iPhone or iPad?
I use Mobile Me frequently. I have not upgraded to iCloud for any other sharing functions.
I realize that once I upgrade iTunes to 10.5 - I probably cannot go back to 10.4. So, I need a clear answer about the above concern before I attempt any upgrade.
Thank you,
Dale

iCloud signup and use is completely optional. You don't even need to open an iCloud account to run iTunes 10.5 or any of your devices, nor use iCloud if you have an account. I have iTunes 10.5 and do have an iCloud account, but I don't use it for anything other than the Find My iPad service.
Regards.

Question about router

Hi,
I have an old route- A linksys 80211b. I have had it for probably about 4 years. I have 2 computers networked via hard wire and a wireless print server.
I often have a problem with my internet connection. I have a fast cable connection.
But I will go to safari and a page starts to load ans then stops in the middle. I then need to hit refresh a few times to get the page loaded. First I thought it was my computer, but realized that the it does this on both my macs. By the way it does not do it on my PC.
I went to compusa today and they suggested that I get a new router. they had me buy a dlink 108G mimo. They felt this would solve the problem,
I did not even open the box yet but wondering if everyone else out there agrees it is time to upgrade my router and this may be a soloution to the problem.
Part 2 of my question is will the dlink connect to my linksys 80211.g print server?
Any insight would be great.

I don't think it's the Router... might be of course, you could tell by hooking one computer directly to the Modem.
I think it might be the Modem...

A question about student version upgrade

Hi everyone,
I do know, that student version is only for noncommercial work, and while i'm just a student, i don't wanna take that risk that I might get commercial work to do, and I would't be allowed to do it.
Now what I've got in my mind, is that i would first buy cs4 design premium - student version. Then I would update it to the commercial version (CS4).
The question is, can I update CS4 student to CS4 commercial, or do I have to wait until CS5 is to be released.
And IF I can upgrade from CS4 student to CS4 commercial, does it cost the regural upgrade price? ( ~790€ ).
I know that student version has full upgrade rights, but on the "whats egible for upgrade" it doesn't mention CS4 (for obvious reasons, usually people don't want to pay to upgrade to same program they have), but somehwhere in the european FAQ (here http://www.adobe.com/uk/education/students/studentedition/faq.html ) there was mentioned this
Can I upgrade from a Student Edition?
Yes, a Student Edition can be upgraded to a commercial version.
Now it is not clearly stated, that can we upgrade from later version to more recent one, or can we upgrade recent student ver to recent commercial ver
Location: Europe, Finland, so before you north americans tell me that I can use student version for commercial work, i'd like to say that It doesn't work that way in Europe.
Thank you for your time, I hope someone has a clear ansrew to me.

A Question about Driver Version #

I am confused, as usual, but this time about which Driver Version one has on one's PC. I am NOT sure, but I think that the Driver Version # given on the Creative SB A. 2 Z, which is now 02.08.0004 is NOT called that same Version # when ON your PC. IF so - isn't this ODD?
I ask this because I believe that I have already installed the above named Drivers - BUT - when I check my System Devices; Audgy 2 ZS; it shows the Driver Version as: 5.2.8.64.
Can someone PLEASE tell me IF these two are really "ONE and the SAME" or not?
Thank YOU! Michael

What Satellite model dou you have?
As Akuma said, you can try modified drivers or drivers that are not from Toshiba. But with these drivers you could get more problems as now.
As far as I know the games need a lot of power and a Satellite notebook was not made for computer games. The Qosimo series is ideal for playing games.
If you want to play games on a Satellite notebook, you should not set high quality settings in game. It runs better when you play with lower settings.

General Question about JRE - Versions and backward compatibility etc

Could someone maybe help me with this query?
I've got a group of network users who use a total of four java applications which I am told require different versions of the Java Runtime Environment to run.
Is it therefore possible to have muliple versions of the RTE installed on one user machine to make all applications work at once or is it simply a case of having to have only one version of the JRE.
I'm talking mainly about in house applications so I guess if some of them are incompatible with the latest JRE then the answer might be to find out what the problem is and fix the application so it works in the lates jre - or am I missing something?

Hello,
First of all, it is possible to keep several JRE installed in Windows. For example, my PC has JRE 1.3.1.8, 1.4.0.1, 1.4.2.6.
Second. A tecnology exists to cause a Windowst to run a specific JRE for a specific Java applet. Please see the text below.
HTML Applet Configuration
� The standard (Internet) method of calling Java Runtime when using a Java Applet is to use an Applet tag within the HTML file itself specifying the applet details (example below). This tries to attach itself to Microsoft Java Runtime registry CLSID as detailed above.
<applet code=Applet1.class width="200" height="200">
Your browser does not support the <code>applet</code> tag.
</applet>
� When the above call is made either, a) the applet will load in the Microsoft Java Runtime, b) the applet will load in a particular Sun Java Runtime as it�s being redirected or c) the applet won�t load at all as Microsoft Java Runtime isn�t installed and Sun Java isn�t set as default.
� The above can be uncontrolled as to what version of Java (if any) is actually used to launch an applet so have an alternative solution is to us the Object tag in place of the Applet tag. It�s only suitable for Internet Explorer in an internal, Intranet environment but should be ideal for us.
� By replacing the Applet HTML tag with the Object tag when loading an applet you can specify in the tag either to use the latest installed version of Sun Java or a specific version by putting it�s CLSID in the list. (example below.)
<OBJECT
classid="clsid:CAFEEFAC-0014-0002-0006-ABCDEFFEDCBB"
width="200" height="200">
<PARAM name="code" value="Applet1.class">
</OBJECT>
� The advantage in the above approach is we can install a specific version of Java, i.e. 1.4.2.06 that doesn�t redirect the Microsoft Java Runtime so won�t effect other applications, and we can be safe in the knowledge that even if we install a newer version of Java on a machine that has 1.4.2.06 we won�t have any backwards compatibility problems.
� The Object tag is an Internet Explorer only solution, but could be scaled, as to load a different version of Java you specify a different CLSID, whether that�s one of the versions of Sun Java or Microsoft Java or you can specify a CLSID that covers the latest installed version of Sun Java if you don�t want to tie the application to a specific version.
Further details on the use of the Applet and Object tags can be found on the Sun website below so they may be of use if the HTML code that calls the Java applet can be easily changed to support our requirements.

Naive question about router

Hi, all,
First, I'm definitely a beginer in network field, I don't know much about routers.
Recently, I got a CISCO2610XM router. I tried to use it to set up a LAN and connect the LAN to the network.
However, I found the router only have one FastEthernet0/0 port, and other two ports are console and aux (which I think are used to configure the router, am I right?).
Do I need extra network module (card) to connect to the LAN? And what card should I choose?
The figure I planed for my LAN is:
Network
|
|
ROUTER 2610XM
|
|
A Linux box (Squid, as a cache engine)
|
|
A Switch (NetGear GS105 Gigabit Switch)
|
|
several computers
Thanks in advance.
Joe

I did not realized you had in mind ISP , this changes things, but lets assume you'll have a static IP for ISP_INternet connection , I'll see if can get a chance to lab this out ,this is a quick setup but you still need to configure some security ACLs.
On 2610XM router:
ip routing
interface FastEthernet0/0
Description CONNECTION TO 2950_SW_PORT_24
no ip address
no ip proxy-arp
duplex full
speed 100
no shut
interface FastEthernet0/0.2
Description VLAN2
encapsulation dot1Q 2 ( for vlan 2 on switch )
ip address ISP_STATIC_IP
ip nat outside
interface FastEthernet0/0.3
Description VLAN3
encapsulation dot1Q 3 ( for vlan 3 on switch )
ip address 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside
interface FastEthernet0/0.4
Description VLAN4
encapsulation dot1Q 4 ( for vlan 4 on switch )
ip address 192.168.3.1 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside
interface FastEthernet0/0.5
Description VLAN5
encapsulation dot1Q 5 ( for vlan 5 on switch )
ip address 192.168.4.1 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside
ip nat pool mypool interface fastethernet0/0.2
ip nat inside source list 100 mypool overload
access-list 100 permit ip 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255
access-list 100 permit ip 192.168.3.0 0.0.0.255
access-list 100 prtmit ip 192.168.4.0 0.0.0.255
access-list 100 permit ip 192.168.5.0 0.0.0.255
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ISP_router_interface_IP_address
on the switch config something like this:
vlan database
vtp domain test_net
vtp mode transparent
vlan 2 name outside_ISP_Internet
vlan 3 name 192.168.2.0_subnet
vlan 4 name 192.168.3.0_subnet
vlan 5 name 192.168.4.0_subnet
vlan 6 name 192.168.5.0_subnet
exit
interface fe0/1
description connection_ISP_Router
switchport access vlan 2
speed 100
duplex full
no cdp enable
no shutdown
interface fe0/2
description connection_PC1
switchport access vlan 3
speed 100
duplex full
no shut
interface fe0/3
description connection_PC2
switchport access vlan 4
speed 100
duplex full
no shut
etc..
interface fastethernet0/24
Description Trunk to 2610XM_FE_PORT
switchport mode trunk
Physical would look something like this.
INternet-ISP-router 2610XM
2950SW

PCs
[Edit]
For the Squid server say you have a spare public IP of 2.2.2.2 and Squid local IP is 192.168.2.254 you can create a static NAT on 2610XM router as:
ip nat inside source static 192.168.2.254 2.2.2.2
in addition to access list to allow inbound access through public IP.

Question about router connections

Does a wireless router need to be connected to an external modem? My modem is essentially a card in a box on the outside of my house, so connecting to it, other than through a wall outlet, is pretty much out of the question.
My connection goes from wall outlet directly to the ethernet port on my pc...am I even able to connect a wireless router?

The wire that runs from your modem outside, to the outlet on your wall, apparently allows you to connect directly to your modem.
Probably you can simply run a wire from your wall outlet to a wireless router. However, before investing in a wireless router, I would suggest that you verify that this setup will work with your ISP (internet service provider). Also, check your ISP's web site. They have probably already posted directions on how to set up wireless with their system.

Question about education version of cs6: once per year restriction and cross platform

I am an education use of cs6, which I currently use on my mac. I now have a windows pc, which I would also like to use cs6 on concurrently. My understanding is my existing license doesn't cover cross-platform use, so I would have to buy a new license. However, education licenses also have a once per year restriction (ie. you can only buy 1 license per title per year). So my question is, for the purpose of the once per year restriction, does the windows version count as a different title from the mac version (ie, is it once per year per title per platform)?

http://www.adobe.com/uk/special/education/students/studentteacheredition/order_fulfillment .html
RESTRICTIONS ON USE
You may purchase only one license per platform of any Adobe Student and Teacher Edition product per year. Purchases of suite editions (such as Design Premium or Master Collection) are limited to one title per platform per year. Adobe Student and Teacher Edition products may be used only on your privately owned computer and may not be resold.
Even though that's a UK link, I cannot find any other info on Adobe's website which is similar in content so I assume those rules are global.

Question about GRT54GS Versions.

I'm wondering whats the difference between "GRT54GS v5" and "GRT54GS v6"? Is there a site anyone knows which tells what was added to the new versions?
I'm just a little curious because I just bought a new one and it was v5; was there something wrong in v5 that they fixed in v6 (should I try taking it back and buying it from the d-link webpage or such for the newest version)? Or just the softwear is different (like the quick install guide that it comes with), so don't bother?
Thanks

Question about different versions

I was just trying to clean up my computer a bit and saw that I have versions 1.4.2_04, _05 and _06. They are 107MB, 108MB and 108MB, respectively. Do I need all three of those or can I delete 4 and 5?
Michele

Each version is independent and does not interact with other versions.
If you don't want or use a version it can be deleted.

Question about item versions

In V1 version of the portal, an end user (with view access) could look at older versions of a file type item by clicking the glasses icon. The glasses icon appeared as a result of displaying the attribute "versions" for a region. The end user could not only see the available versions list, but could also click on each of the older versions and open the older versions of the document.
In version 9.0.2.2.14A when a end user (with view access) clicks on the glasses (versions) icon
it just shows a list of Available versions. But no hyperlinks to access each one of these older documents.
What is the use of displaying Available versions when an end user cannot access the earlier versions of the documents.
(however I know that a user with edit access to the item, can see the earlier versions and edit them
or set them as latest version)
Is this behavior same in 9.0.2.6?
We heavily depend on this feature. I don't how to work around this.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

This feature has been restored in 9.0.2.6.

Noob question about router IP on SDM Worksheet...

The SDM Worksheet says,
L6A
Router IP Address
Copy the subnet in field L1A to field L6A.
If L1A has subnet field of 192.168.10.0, then these instructions make the router address 192.168.10.0.
I thought the first IP on the subnet was the default IP for the router, eg 192.168.0.1

Chris
I am as baffled as you are looking at the link you provided. If you used the example they give then all interface IPs would end up being the subnet address which is clearly wrong and more importantly would not work.
In terms of the addressing to use it is common to allocate static IPs from the start of the subnet as you say, athough this is just convention ie. any IP from the subnet could be used.
So unless we are both missing something obvious i would just ignore what the sheet is saying and do as you suggest in terms of allocation.
