mine was probably wore out when one of the capacitors was going bad and i could here the router screaming at me. replaced capacitor and installed a heat sink and it is kind of back to normal . i like the the options it offer me. i haven't had a password on my wifi in the entire time i have owned it and no one has used my wifi without my permission .

On a different topic, does anyone have any good tips or tricks for potty training dogs?

I've got 3 Chihuahua's and it's been a pain getting them trained. Tried puppy pads, they will **** and poop on it once, then they're done with the pad, they won't use it again......


What manly dogs!

So life is good, got his truck going, got some cash and what does he do? Throws a joint out of the window of his truck, then gets pulled over. He was high as a kit. Had weed and meth on him, and just to make things worse he had 2 of his 3 kids with him...

A lot of cash on hand, but some was income tax money, but he was too high to know the difference and told the police it was all drug money, so his wife/kids are out of whatever tax money they had left.

Now, since the kids were in the truck with him the police collected hair samples to run tests on to determine whether or not to charge him with child endangerment.

The kids were returned to his wife, and she wasn't charged with anything as she wasn't with him in the vehicle, but not sure if she could be charged depending on the outcome of the tests...

Booked for drug trafficking, who knows what else. Child Endangerment charge could come too.

Looking like he could do 4 to 25 years in the slammer.

Oh well I guess, he's gotten learn somehow. 6 months in drug rehab apparently didn't do it, although that was a few years ago now....

A good lawyer a probably beat the trafficing charge,wth proofthat it was income tax money. Being high one is hardly responsible for what one ays, expecially if cops ask leading questions. Hope niterview was recorded. But that will also depend on how much he had on him. But this may alo require him to plea on the possession. And reahab is seldom a one shot deal before it is successful. (hint: a public pretender is NOT a good lawyer...)

Hope it woks out.

Was it a capacitor? Wow! Mine had that terrible "screaming" noise too!

My new router checks the MAC address AND hostname of the connecting device, and if they aren't on my list it kicks them off. Better than WEP or WPA!

ya. capacitor was bulging and making a lot of noise. got my brother-in-law to fix it. i also noticed it got warm so i found the chip that got the hottest and stuck a small stick on heat sink that i pulled off a dead motherboard. so far so good.

yup. if your mac address is not on my list you are not getting on. i also do not broadcast SSID so it makes things easier to keep safe. i found it impossible to put a password on the wifi that i would be able to remember so i was glad i was able to keep it secure other ways.

Yup, that's how tax time works. They say it'll be in your account on X day and X day comes around and it's not there you get pissy.

Shoes? Maybe I'm going to get some hookers and blow! Actually I wouldn't mind a joint right now
