In my office I have what I call my little black Chinese box. It's a four port router with an antenna. The mode I use it in has the antenna act as if it's a cable connected to a port on the DSL modem in the house. It's completely transparent on the network, same as if it was just another switch. Getting it configured and working took a bit of fiddling because the instructions are rather sparse. No brand name anywhere on it at all, bought it new off eBay. If I ever had time to play videogames I'd get another one and connect my PS2 and XBox 360 to it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing AppDynamics Lite, a free troubleshooting tool for Java/.NET Get 100% visibility into your production application - at no cost.
