    Dual vs. Single Band UniFi

    I had serious issues with 5Ghz in my house (1893, brick walls and plaster). The attenuation @ the higher frequency was just too much. I installed a UniFi Long Range AP (2.4Ghz only) and it works fantastic, even with a large amount of 2.4Ghz "noise". Because of your older devices I agree with...

    What needs to be done in order to make my house cable ready?

    If I have the choice I *NEVER* let the install monkeys do the "install". Because they will literally do just that... drill a hole in the side of your house wherever you want the cable and put in a grommet. I prefer to do the work myself so it is done properly.

    Ideal Wireless Solution for a Large Home?

    I can throw yet another UniFi hat into the ring. I run the Long Range standard APs and can stream any of my media anywhere in the house to AppleTVs or Rokus. I have found that while 5Ghz might have less interference, it gets attenuated too much by my brick walls. That being said, I also ran...

    Comcast XFinity modem suggestions

    I have been using the DOCSIS 2.0 version of the modem bds1904 post and it has been ROCK SOLID at 30mbit/6mbit on Comcast BLAST! for the past two years. Very consistent speeds, no reboots required. I have never used a Motorola but can say I am pleasantly surprised at the UBEE.

    The [H]ard Forum Storage Showoff Thread - Post your 10TB+ systems

    Finally decided on pooling software. Ended up sticking with Drive Bender. The professionalism of the product has come a long way in this (hopefully) final beta release. So far so good.

    Your Laptop Picture [H]ere (read first post for rules please)

    The built in Atheros Wireless-N isn't a dual-band card so it can't do 5Ghz. I have a dual band router at home and want my 300mbps. The cards are only $25 on eBay and take all of 30 seconds to install.

    Acer H243Hbmid 24" 2ms(GTG) HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor $189.99

    How does the RESOLUTION cause that? These are inexpensive TN monitors, and they are for the mainstream public which wants 1080p. If you absolutely hate them, pony up for a 1920x1200 IPS panel with a height adjustable stand, or go to your monitor's best friend: Monoprice...

    930 and h50.. different core temps?

    It doesn't look like this is the case, but having more than one monitoring application open can muck with the sensors too.

    Battle of Low Powered Servers.

    When you are talking about such low power consumption CPUs, the power savings comes down to the other components. Motherboard, chipset, video, network, drives, and PSU efficiency. I personally feel that for the few watts you'll save going with the Atom will be made up by the overall performance...

    Samsung 40C630 LCD HDTV $668, 40C650 $679

    The LN40C650 is a good TV. I had the "B" version in England and it looked very good for the price. My 46" XBR9 blows it away though. But still, for under $700 that is a great buy. I think I paid £800 back in May of 2009? Where are you seeing these prices? I see the 650 for $830 and the 630 for...

    Memory Upgrade - Abit AB9 QuadGT

    I would say you might notice a slight difference. Are you maxing out your current RAM and using swap space? I know on my main machine I rarely see usage past 6GB right now, and that is WITH a 2GB RAMDisk running.
