The bandwidth hit doesn’t seem to be to bad, and it’s a good way to get some range extension if you have a few of these around, but there are a few important tweaks to make it work as a range extender and not just a straight WDS system. The first router (a) is plugged into your internet connection, the second router (b) is hanging out within range of (a) to repeat the signal (and allow anything to plug into it if necessary). Modifications on a straight WDS system are explained below (WDS doesn’t actually allow for clients to connect to the router, all it does is pass along the signal).
Requirements:
1. Two WRT54Gs
2. Thibor firmware
3. See “Basic WDS Setup” and follow the instructions there
*make sure you actually get the wireless MAC address out of the wireless status page
4. Instead of setting both routers to Wireless Mode = WDS, set both routers to Wireless Mode = Access Point and WDS
5. Disable the firewall on router (b)
6. Configure security as you see fit (I have WPA TKIP and MAC address limiting (make sure to put the respective wireless MAC addresses of the other router in each table in addition to other clients).
7. Turn on router (a), wait for it to come online, then turn on (b).
Check it out - after about 8 months of being broken, it looks like I now have a way of getting the bulk of this site up and running…
In the spirit of Todd Dailey, I decided to try out some Brasso on the badly scratched screen of a Palm Tungsten T5. There are mixed reports floating around online as to the effectiveness of Brasso on LCDs and other plastic components of electronic devices, but nothing that I could find detailing effectiveness on a touchscreen (other than a general consensus that solvents like Brasso were probably not such a good idea). I gave it a shot anyway. I tried using both a cotton Q-tip and a microfiber clother. Alas, it did not work. The one area which I buffed the hardest is now even slightly worse. Onto another solution…
For what it’s worth, it took some scratches off of the much harder plastic of my v710 quite handily, and did a decent job on the case of the T5, so I have faith in the idea.
Having seen two major prior iterations, Etzel.com is starting to grow up. Lots more work to be done…
Not a bad view. Quite a show, one for the ages…

What a weekend…
Nice! My season’s over, but 4 Eliot boats in the finals. Straus Cup, perhaps?
Another Ed Board, another issue…
There’s always a first time for everything…
How it is that I’ve managed to live in Massachusetts this long and not go there, I do not know. Very nice place, though.
