The place where I am setting it up is a 900 sqft apartment with brick walls (no wood construction in Europe). I know if the Apple Base Station does not provide full coverage, I can…

Are the apartment's interior walls brick? That would be a difficulty for any wireless system-not a fatal one, but a difficulty nonetheless. However, an AirPort Base Station comes…

Yes, the interior walls are brick as opposed to the 2x4 and drywall construction in the US. The router should be able to cover the two main rooms of teh apartment which are next to…

I am not saying use Sveasoft or anything, but I have used it on 8 Linksys routers and all are running flawlessly. I will say, however, that by not being very careful and methodica…

It is probably nothing that you will even notice if you havent already. Linksys really did not care if you modded their product. Yes, they did not support it, but whatever made y…

Figured someone here could point me down a path to finding some nice shirts. I'm a strange build. I wear a 17 collar with 35 or 35-36 sleeves. My waist is a 36, shoulders are …

Mexx have some decently tailored dress shirts that fit me pretty nicely. They're cheaper than Banana Republic but still run about $50 Cdn around here. I usually get mine on their…

banana shirts should be around $80, but still $$$, but they do run very good sales. Also try express for men, they are more fitted, and are 2 for 50 sometimes. I have alot of t…

thanks for all the info guys!! I'll give Men's warehouse a call and start talking to some people locally about reputable tailors.

I've had to deal with the same sort of thing for a long time. One thing the powerlifters do to look sharp is what I refer to as "military pleats." You take the side seams of the …

Mens Express 1MX solid color shirts right now, $29.99 They are very nice, modern fit (more tailored like) and hold up well. If it fits well, DO NOT DRY it in the dryer, or it wil…
