"pushkin" and "linksys" are two SSID's for networks that you are in range of. Pushkin has secured its network so you have no access (but can still see it). Linksys didn't. In fa…

It's also entirely possible the owner of the "apparantlly" unconfigured "linksys" router left it that way as a Honeypot so he/she could packet sniff people looking for a free ride.…

If your DSL connection is PPPoE, make sure your router is set to an MTU of 1492, not 1500.

My connection is TCP/IP using DHCP. Any other ideas? Thanks

Finally got around to playing with this and thought I'd post just to let anyone else with the same kind of problem know what I did. John Strung was on the right track, it just too…

Well, it looks like the only way to do it is with a wireless airport card. I had a spare so I installed it and it worked. If I turn off airport, it does not print even though it …

There are a two main routes you can take:You can simply connect the Linksys to the Cable Modem, and then the AirportExpress to the Linksys with no additional changes. This will cre…

just to add another voice... i have the same basic thing: 2 airport expresses, a dlink router, and a vonage box. i had the dlink, and my roomie is on that network. but i am hook…

The problem is with the site's code, not Gecko. The code is a complete mess. But as for this particular problem, this "bleeding off of the edge of the menubar" appears to actually…

Those links seem to render fine in Safari. Is Safari doing something here to compensate for IE-designed sites?

Safari doesn't use Gecko. While it is really a problem with the page's horrendous code, it's still suboptimal performance of Gecko to render it incorrectly if it's possible to ren…
