So you cant seperate the PPPoA auth and normal routing(DHCP, ports etc)? That sucks.. Expensive router and i cant use it for routing. Would a different modem help?

Sorry, double post somehow.. Where's the damn delete button?

Ok so ive done a little more research.. And it seems that the netgear router doesn't support PPPoA.. This seems a little strange but i heard its an old protocol? So it looks like ill have to get the modem to at least auth with my ISP. But i would still like dhcp and ports to be handles by the...

Hi guys, It's been a while since i've bothered all of you, so my nw router has kindly decided to not work =) I just picked up a Netgear WNDR3700 as my Linksys WAG320N is frankly terrible. I have a linksys AM300 modem to use with the router, and i would like for the modem to be in bridge...

Hmm, just consulted a family friend and he reminded me of the thing i was forgetting: a transistor =)

wiring the connections from the vibrate motor on my old cell to my PC power switch. that way, text the cellphone-> PC turns on (or off).

Does anyone know what sort of voltages and currents these circuits can handle? I understand that both these values are low in NORMAL operation. But what if i run more current through it, say, what is supplied to a cellphone vibrate motor? Im using a P5Q pro is that's useful, Thanks in...

Hmm.. curious. I realise that they're quite old, but i still think that they'll have enough performance for what i want

Just an update for anyone that cares: Ive found a raid card for sale here http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=251665903 If what i can find info online for is the same card, this guy may not know how much this is worth which seems common in NZ. Looks like i might get hardware raid 5...

Yea might have to do that danny. I cant find a hardware raid card here for under $300 so ill try software for now

Thanks sirmonkey. Im looking at getting a 65W AMD now as they're not much more expensive

Something that is fast enough to run source servers, only has one volume to deal with (i may make var and root different partitions), but where i have a failsafe for HDD failure.

Danny, i might go for raid 0 and backup everything externally every so often. I cant really see a better alternative.

Hmm.. Ok, ill look into those drives. Danny - i was planning on using arch all along, which will probably lighten up onthe OS based stress on the CPU somewhat. I could also overclock a X2 245 to handle the extra raid calculations. I REALLY would prefer to have a raid setup as i dont really...

^^Na, you cant buy PCs like that here, and buying one in general is so much more expensive than building one. That's why im doing it that way. THey sell PCs with similar specs to this (without all the HDD space) for around $2k in shops here. Building it will get it to be for under $1k The...
