Re: [MBZ] OT: Wheaton Van Lines
I agree that if you are situationally capable - don't even bring any moving company into the mix. We all need to jettison a lot of stuff, don't we? I have on a couple of moves left some things behind and taken only what I could fit inside my trusty car. But as in so many other areas, marriage complicates life. On this move, we had to go with the moving company and take whatever treatment they gave us.

Re: [MBZ] O/T Router
Can pickup my neighbors broadband from the driveway by the house with a laptop, but can't pick it up by the shop which is about 200 ft behind the house where I would like to. Thought about buying a TVDirect reflector from a used store and mounting a USB Linksys remote in it in place of the TVDirect pickup but not sure it the reflector would be big enough for a weak signal. If the signal could be relayed from the house to the shop some way (200'), the TVDirect dish, mounted on the house, would work with a Lynksis antenna in it I think, but I don't know if a Lynksis hub can be used as a relay or if it would work at 200' distance.

Re: [MBZ] Gasket paper WAS Motorcycle success
The ball end of a small ball-peen hammer works well in cutting gaskets as long as you use many light hammer blows around the edges and in the holes. On heavy gasket material I only mark it with the hammer and then cut it with a razor knife and snips. Gerry - Original Message - From: Kevin Kraly [EMAIL PROTECTED] I wanted to run one of my RC cars, but it wasn't getting any exhaust pressure into the fuel tank. I noticed that the exhaust was leaking at the header gasket, and I didn't have any of the $.50 gaskets on hand. My dad had some gasket paper lying around, and it was up and running a few minutes later with a homemade gasket. MB content: One of my '78 300D's was leaking oil at the front of the engine, and some searching revealed that it was the vac pump gasket. Dad's gasket paper came to the rescue once again, and it was as good as new. We stamped that one out with a hammer using the surface of the pump, and the center which we pumched out was used for some more RC header gaskets.

Re: [MBZ] O/T Router
Bridge mode is used to connect two isolated networks wirelessly. If this feature is enabled, wireless clients will not be able to connect to the Wireless MAXg Router. Bridging is used if you are trying to connect two networks or two groups of wired clients, each with its own Wireless MAXg Router or wireless access point, that cannot be conveniently connected using Ethernet cabling. An example of this type of situation would be two homes that want to share network resources without running cabling through their yards. quoted from the manual for the 5461 I just ordered. -- Luther KB5QHUAlma, Ark '87 300SDL (272,xxx mi) head case '85 Ford F250 6.9 diesel (x58,xxx mi) '82 300CD (166 kmi) '82 300D (74 kmi) getting donor engine-sold '85 300D (280,176) parts car sans engine ___ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

5 nights at Motel 6 is going to be something like $250 (assuming you can find cheap hotels). Food is going to be something like $40/day unless you make sandwiches so another $200.

Musta had a honking v8 because it had plenty of power even fully loaded. Transmission shifted fine too. When I moved out of my parent's house in '99 the little Toyota Uhaul had almost no reverse.

Re: [MBZ] O/T Router
The computers don't suck signals or bandwidth, for that matter. They only create traffic on the network when there is input or output on the network port. There are packets that are used to ping the access point from time to time, but they are pretty insignificant in the grand scheme of things. Your Comcast connection is probably limited in bandwidth well below what your access point or router can handle, so wireless bandwidth is not an issue. If you had a house full of computers and people were gaming online, that would be one thing, but for 90% of the typical consumer use, you're not going to know the difference if there was one or 15 computers on your wireless system. I run both a B and G system at home, only because I have a few machines that are B only. The drawback of running a G system is that if you have an A or B client, speeds drop down to that level for everyone. Quite honestly, I can't tell a difference. MacPoos --- Gary Hurst [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: not quite. here is the logic. i presume i have a finite amount of signal from comcast. i want to run many computers on that signal, basically having a computer in every room of the house. if i used a G system, each computer would suck more signal than if i use a B system. so to be able to add more computers without overloading the system, i prefer B to G now this make perfect sense to me, but i have a suspicion that there is a comical stupidity with my thinking, so i've never shared it with any of you.

Re: [MBZ] ditching stuff (was Re: OT:PODS)
Hi Curt, You wroteplan was to sell 90% of what I owned I've always loved sailing and my dream was to sail away and spend my life in the Carribbean or South Pacific. One quote from a famous sailor said something to the effect of I never realized I needed so little to be happy. My idea was to sell the house and everything inside it and buy a bigger boat to make ocean sailing a little safer (a 27' isn't big when out of sight of land) but being away from family for long periods prevented us from doing it. Not seeing our grandchildren grow up wasn;t something we were willing to give up. Then my health went downhill and made it a moot point. The disease I have is not curable so we manage the pain thru the magic world of chemicals. Being in foreign lands trying to get narcotic pain meds is not something as smooth as it is here. When you look at the details, you begin to really understand what an amazing country this is. As it is we had to sell the boat we had becase I was unable to enjoy it - being on a bigger boat needing more maintanence on an even bigger piece of water meant we made the right decision. ;-)Things would not have been much fun being in paradise and unable to get the proper medical treatent.

Those are plentiful in used stores but the big dishes have gotten scarce. Thanks, Gerry The small dish works better than 200' for direct line of sight. There is a group, that I can't find the article for right now, but they got quite a few miles out it. Though they did have a parabolic dish at both ends. Ed -- The lady next door is an old widow with a hub thats broadcasting the signal. I just happened to pick it up with the laptop. If I get something set up that works, I'll pay half of her broadband bill for her. It would be the signal from her hub to my dish at 200'. Would be worth trying, I think, if two dishes can connect at several miles IMO.

Negative. It will be sloped N/S. Only gravity flow to allow any vapor to travel up away from clean warm product. It will also be used to reclaim methanol.

Re: [MBZ] Airport Express
Airport Express looks like it plugs into a 110v socket? That's all. Plug your printer into it plus the cable from the cable modem. No configuring at all unless you want to make your network secure.

RLE - Interesting. If I didn't have several Linksys hubs already, I'd try it. $18 is pretty cheap for anything from Apple. They must be changing their pricing policies. The high price of their stuff has been what's always deterred me from trying it.
