Is is safe to put a router bit in a drill press? The project I'm working on requires a fairly complicated cut with a 1/4 dado router bit into white pine. Although the cut can be done on a router table, it would be a much easier setup to build a jig on the table of my drill press. That way, I would be able to see where the bit is going at all times and use the press to plunge the bit. The problem is that the top speed of the drill press is 3500 rpm, and the router bit was designed to run around 10,000 rpm. First off. Is this safe? Will the bit cut cleanly, or just tear the wood up? Could I damage the bit doing this?

How do I hook up my home router? I encountered a problem. I have the dsl box and a router but the box is not designed to hook directly to the router but instead has a usb hook up. So one side of the cable is Cat5 and the other is usb. It says on the box that it is specifically for usb. So how do I hook it up to the router that needs that Cat5 connection? Confusing, I know sorry. The computer that the box is hooked up to does not have a network card, does it need one.

how to connect computer to computer to router I have a short Ethernet cable that I would like to connect to a second computer that is connected to a router (with a spare Ethernet port) so that the first computer is connected to the router.

What is the best way to design a network that contains a fibre optic backbone, 4 subnets and and net access? I currently have a fibre optic backbone connected to the internet through a dmz. THere are two hubs on the backbone, each connected to a router. Each router then connects to 2 switches which will eventually make a total of 4 subnets containing computers and printers. Am i using the right network devices here? Ok, i have a DMZ sitting in between the internal network and the internet to provide security. In the DMZ is a web server, email server and a Remote access server with a firewall sitting infront of it keeping unwanted users out from the internet Could i put the two routers onto the backbone, then connect the switches to these routers to create my subnets.(i thiink thats what you were suggesting) Im going to use private ip addressing using dhcp and dns servers. I dont think i will need NAT as the workstations on the network dont need to connect to the internet directly, although they will be connecting to a WAN that contains another site. thanks for your help

Will a router get damaged if it frequently gets turned on and off accidentally? I have a linksys WRT54G2 wireless router. I have it plugged on a loose socket because that is the only free and nearest socket in a convenient place for the router and frequently gets disconnected from power at random times (like two to three times a day) because of dogs being unruly all the time. Id rather have the plug get bumped by dogs rather than the router itself. Is there a chance that the router can get damaged by that? Are routers designed to endure that kind of treatment?

New cabinet panel doors for bathroom vanity? How would you make a panel door? Best Answer - Chosen By Voters I wouldn't suggest a single piece of wood, it will have a tendency to warp and possibly split. A single piece of wood that wide is also very expensive if you could find it. I would be more practical to make a panel door. I'm looking to replace the current vanity doors in my bathroom with homemade wooden doors I can stain. I'd like to be able to use one piece of wood per door and router a design in them. Is there any type of wood I can use that won't warp because of the moisture?

Does increasing "radio power" on wireless router increase the range? On my Asus WL-520g router there's an option to increase the "radio power" from the default number of 19 (which is recommended) up to 84 (max). Will this increase the range of the wireless signal? It doesn't seem to! My computer on the other side of the house is still "Low" and sometimes "Good" even when I ramp it up to 84. Was that what it was designed for or is it for something else?

need some help with cisco wireless router? hello I am having some problems with my cisco wireless router and need some help. For the past three weeks I have had time warner cable road runner internet vonage phone and a cisco wireless router all connected and running wonderfully together. Well that all changed Thursday night. I thought that my computer might have got hit by a virus and unplugged the internet. after scanning my anti virus didn't detect anything. well i plugged up everything and much to my horror I couldn't get vonage or my wireless router to work. I could still get internet connection as long as I had the ethernet cable plugged straight into the modem. After working on it all day Friday I still wasn't able to get the vonage or my wireless router to work. This morning we were finally able to get the vonage to work agian but still haven't had any luck getting the cisco wireless router to work. I tried everything I even went out and bought another cisco router same design and model. It still isn't working. I have tried everything that i could possibly think off and every time that i plug the wireless router up the computer says that it is getting limited or no connectivity. However I didnt see how that is possible because when I ping yahoo in command prompt I get four responses. We called cisco and they weren't helpful they tried to blame the problem on Time Warner. I have given up and if anybody has any idea on what might be causing this and how to fix it please tell me so that I can fix this. Thanks Josh
how you would design this home network? 1. Suppose you are running a home business and want a very reliable Internet connection (say, you have 4 computers and you don’t want a disruption of more than 1 minute). Explain how you would design this home network. (hint, consider the following potential failures: your Internet Service Provider (ISP), your router)
Details on Wireless N Router range on G Adapters? Hi guys, I googled for plenty of time and can't seem to find similar topic with desired details. These questions assumed that G Adapters (and only G) are connected to N Router: 1. Will N Router helps to extend the range? I am aware that the speed wont, but what about range/coverage? Some said it has to be with N adapter, some said it will, and the others were not sure. I have this great answer from jpcloud, confirm/deny? =========== Yes. The 802.11n standard includes a new antenna configuration over the older g and b standards, meaning that the transmission range and reception sensitivity of the router will be greater than a b or g router. However, while a computer with a g or b network card will have a greater range when connected to an n router than it would when connected to a g or b router, it will still not have the same range as an n card connected to an n router. This is because the n network cards contain the new antenna configuration, which gives them longer range, while the older cards retain the older configuration. Therefore, for an n router and an n card, you have two factors that extend range, while for a g card connected to an n router there is only one factor that extends the range. Edit: To DaveEC, your answer neglects the fact that N design routers also have increased antenna strength, and so they can detect a weaker g or b signal (lower signal-to-noise ratio) than a g or b router. This does in fact increase the range of a g or b card when connected to the router, but not to the extent of an n card on an n router. ================ 2. If #1 answer is yes, will this extended range apply if wireless signal is set to B/G only (not Mixed N/B/G)? 2 questions above aside, but still under same assumption: 3. Will G clients have connection disturbances with mixed N/B/G signal compared to B/G or G signal? Thanks in advance.
