Whats the best setup for me

I'm ready to take the Wireless plunge.  After reading about several Linksys routers, I'm not sure which would be best for me.  (I tried to do an advance forum search but it wasn't working).
My Main Desktop is used for online gaming, a secondary Desktop (6yrs old) is for my kid to play online at PlayhouseDisney.com (not very demanding), and my wife will use a laptop for general internet surfing and such.
Which Wireless router will best meet my needs, and will I need something to make that old desktop (Dell Dimension 4300) wireless too?  Budget less than $200 total. If possible.
I'm also interested in an External hardrive for saving large files, photos, etc.  Can this be shared on the network with all 3 PC's?
Thanks in advance.

i think your'e looking for a wrt300n router. i have this kind of router for 6 months now and it works great. it can run up to 300 mbps of speed which a lot faster and you can have a wireless connection as far as 300 ft. regardless of the interferences.

    Just bought a 3TB Time Capsule for a small office. Will have 4 users with MacBooks. What would ne the best setup for time machine individual backups and internet sharing in a secure way?

    Set up each Mac for Time Machine backups in the normal way.  Time Machine will keep each backup separate on the Time Capsule, so users will only be able to see the backups of their own Mac.
    Yes....there are convoluted workarounds that might allow one user to see the backups of another.....IF...they know the administrator password of the "other" Mac.
    As far as Internet sharing, all users will have access to the Internet if they have a wired or wireless connection. If a Mac connects using wireless, it is possible to limit the time that they are allowed to connect to the network.
    For example, you might limit the ability to connect to the wireless from say each Weekday from 8 AM to 6 PM.
    With a wired Ethernet connection, you cannot limit access times to the Internet.

  • Whats the best option for passing parameters between tf?

    Dear All,
    I have three Task Flows:
    1. TF1
         -  Main Taskflow that calls a web service to gather its data
    2. TF2
         -  Secondary taskflow which receives a parameter and depending on the value of the parameter received will display its data accordingly.  Generally any data
         is feed from TF1
    3. TF3
         -  Same as TF2Use Case:
    All three TF will be dropped to the page as Regions in a Webcenter Portal Application. Changes in TF1 should propagate into TaskFlow 2.
    Question:
    1. How do I configure that changes in TF1 would be propagated back into task flow 2 and 3 and whats the best option for this?
    2. At runtime, user can choose to edit the page and TF2 and TF3 can be deleted but TF 1 should remain as the source of information.
    Given the scenario above:
    - shall I wire the taskflows via page parameters?
    - contextual events?
    What are the considerations that needs to be thought of. I havent done such requirements before.
    Please help.
    Webcenter 11.1.1.6

    Contextual events seem to be the best case.
    This way you can trigger whenever you want. Web services can be slow so you can trigger the event when the gathering of the data has been finished and then pass some value on the event.
    An event also has a payload so it's an ideal scenario to add the data from the service on it so you can use it in the other TF's.
    In order to manage the deletion of the TF1, you can use the UI events on the composer: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_page_editor_adv.htm#CHDHHFDJ

    Whats the best software for photo editing and creating product catalogues that can be saved as PDF's

    You are asking two different questiions:
    1. What's a good photo editor? Answer to that here is probably obvious.
    2. What's a good desktop publishing/page layout program for creating PDF files for production? Answer, not PSE. It's a photo editor, not a page layout program.

    What version of Premiere Elements are you using on Mac?
    Export your Timeline content to a .mp4 file, using export settings which have been customized under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of the export's preset.
    See Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD and .mp4 category. The exported file is then uploaded to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
    If you post the properties of your source video and project settings, I will suggest the settings for the Timeline content export to file saved to the computer
    hard drive for upload to YouTube at the YouTube web site.

    Hi, i want to buy a licence of Creative Cloud, but i have one question... Whats the best choose for a little enterprise?? And if i buy a Single Person Licence, on how many pc's can i install the suite??
    Thanks for helping

    no, that's incorrect.
    you can activate on 1 mac and 1 pc, or 2 pc's, or 2 mac's, concurrently.
    i have cc installed on 2 pcs and 1 mac.  i can only activate 2 at any one time which works well for me because my pcs are at home and my office and i use them most of the time.
    but when i travel i take my macbook so i just deactivate one or both of my pcs (uninstalling is not needed) and sign in to my macs cc app.

  • Whats the Best Configuration for Professional Photographers ???

    Hello Everybody,
    Can Please somebody tell Me Whats the Right Configuration for a Photographer I am Into Photography and Have to edit files (Photos ) upto 35 - 60 Mb size In Photoshop CS4 or Phase One Software which itself takes about 1GB of RAM I think Is The New 20" iMac 2.66Ghz with 2Gb RAM enough or do I need a 4GB RAM ??? This is the first time I will be going for a Apple Product so have no Idea about the System Please let Me know as Soon as Possible
    Thankyou

    I think any of the current models would be up to the task. But since you are a pro photographer, you might consider NOT getting the base line 20" model and instead upgrading to the 24" model. Not only do you get a bigger screen to work with when editing your photos, but it also comes standard with 4GB, twice the memory of the 20" model.

  • What's the best setup for a dedicated boot drive (Lion) with a separate storage drive?

    I have a 120GB SSD and 4 x 3TB drives striped together for storage on my hot off the shelf Mac Pro. This may be an elementary question and I'm sure it's like every other post in these forums but what really is the best way to maintain a dedicated OSX Lion boot drive while keeping user profile type stuff on the storage drive? A few thoughts...
    1) I know the risks with striping, which is why it will all be backed up online. Yes. Online.
    2) I am specifically curious about how to keep pretty much all of the User folder type stuff on the storage drive...at least the big stuff.
    Any recommendations? I know Win7 had some big problems with doing this kind of thing. My main goal is to be able to reinstall OS X every day if I wanted and not affect the users or their respective data. Possible? 

    The desktop is implemented by a folder by the same name in the Home folder for each user.
    Before you move it, it will be here:
    /Users/<your_shortname>/Desktop
    I would first try providing an alias in Finder to replace that Folder.
    If that does not work, you may need to use Terminal to create a Symbolic Link.
    ln -s  <desired location> <where the link should be created>
    You can open up terminal and type in man ln to see the other options and how the command works.

  • What is the best setup for cable modems/routers for mac?

    I use a MacBook Air and currently have CableOne as my ISP. I use the AirportExpress for my router. To upgrade to faster speeds I need to upgrade my modem. Am thinking about using a modem/router combination. What is the best set up for me?
    Do modem/combos work well with Mac?
    Also - would it be better to upgrade to an Airport Extreme? We had a housefull of Mac people for Christmas and the Airport Express couldn't handle all the devices very well at all.
    Your wisdom is appreciated. Thanks.
    Dave Weitz

    By the way, CableOne lists mainly Motorola modems and combos as supported equipment.
    Thanks.

  • What the best way for STORAGE the documents from DMS?

    Please, can someone tell me if the limit of storage the originals through a data carrier is two for document or i can to large this limit? 'Cause i know that using Kpro i don't have limit of storage, but i'm trying to use the data carriers 'cause i just have a place in the company server for storage this originals.
    I'm trying to send the originals from a path like this
    abcs01\dms$\ through of a configuration "servidor, front ends", but i'm not get to send the originals from CV01N for this place, even the document been save. I verify that the documents were not sent when i enter from the CV02N in the same document and try to change or screen the originals, 'cause i receive a error message saying that the SAP doesn't get to find the originals on the path indicated.
    Did someone just work on a likely situation?
    Did someone have a view about the best way to storage this documents in this case?
    If the best way will be KPRO, Do I use KPRO with the Content Server or KPRO with storage the documents in a SAP table through of the standard system aplication "DMS_C1"?
    Any idea will be welcome and reward by good points!
    Best Regards.

    Hi,
    The decision to go for either content server or vault depends on what data will be stored. If you are storing drawing data it is highly recommended to go for content server.
    For vault storage performance issues are reported.
    DMS_C1 is IDES based BSP database repository. It is useful only for dev/testing.
    You will be required to create storage repository for CS.
    If you have server available when you insert content server CD inside it, it automatically asks you for maxDB database instance creation. As you click on next it will take you further to create maxDB instance. K-Pro is service on web server. It is used to manage the checkin-checkout and other functionalities of the CS server data.
    BR,

  • [AMD] Whats the best BIOS for overclocking on the K8N Neo-2 Platinum

    any one know which one is best.
    thanks

    I have no idea what biosversion that is the best in general for OC the K8N Neo2 P.
    I use 1.5 and it´s the only version I´ve used.
    I believe not many people have tested OC potential for all 6 versions 1.0 - 1.5.
    ( even more if you include the beta´s).
    I would say OC potential depends more of what hardware you are going to use.
    Good RAM and a good CPU stepping are in most cases more important then biosversions.

  • Whats the best bitrate for VIDEO converting​?

    I'm trying to convert video files to fill WIDE screen 320 width X 240 height.
    The default bitrate is 384. Should I make it higher or is this the best quality bitrate?
    And for the frames it has 18 by default. Does anyone know also if that's good or could be highter?
    Thanks!

    Please note that higher bitrate and higher frame/per second - will affect on performance.
    Use settings that produce media that will play on your device model smoothly.
    For the first step - try default settings. And after that - combine and check. Which settings are most suitable for 
    your device.
