Dear WAMUGers
Please
How do i improve the home wireless network signal at the further  
side of the house?
Do I move the wireless router to a more central spot? That will  
involve installing a powerpoint and  a phone connection.
Or is it possible to install another airport type device so a mac  
at the far end of the house talks to the airport device which in  
turn talks to the wireless router?
Then can the airport talk to an airport express outside to get  
airtunes working to outside speakers?



Hi Rod,

What Wireless Router & Model No. do you have?
It would need to be compatible with Apple's WDS (wireless  
distribution system), not many non-Apple devices are compatible.


If the Router supports WDS, then set up the router as a "WDS main"  
and an Airport Express as a "WDS remote".


I prefer ALL Airport units for a Wireless Network:
I had a Airport Extreme Base Station setup as a "WDS Main" -  
(Participate in a WDS Network & Allow this Network to be extended)  
connected to my  Netgear wireless modem (wireless OFF on the Netgear  
Modem as the Airport Extreme does the wireless part), then I had an  
Airport Express downstairs in my computer room setup as a "WDS  
Remote"- Participate in a WDS Network & Allow this Network to be  
extended). I also had another Airport Express upstairs with airtunes  
streaming music.

All must be on the same Channel of course.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: 4Sale: Software For Sale

[Neil Houghton]

Hi Denise,

I originally had Elements 3.0 (came bundled with a scanner) which I used
occasionally until I left classic behind. When Elements 6.0 came out I
bought it so I could run it on my new intel iMac ­ however, since it has sat
on my shelf for well over a year now and I still haven¹t got round to
installing it - then I might as well sell it, wait until I really need it,
and then buy whatever version is current at that time ;o)

So, if you are interested, I will just work on Ronni¹s previous offer ie
$120 + postage (I¹m in Albany) ­ I haven¹t checked the postage options so
I¹m assuming that Ronni¹s $8 for a 500g bag would be the go.

If you are still interested, Denise, I will give you the first option. If
not, it¹s still up if anyone else is interested.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.0 Full Retail Version -  Original DVD in Original
DVD box with serial no attached + Getting started guide
 - I may also be able to find the larger cardboard packaging that it came in
(think it is in storage with other odds & sods) if you want it.



Cheers



Neil
PS. In actual fact, I DID install the software one day back in Sept 2008 and
played with it for an hour or two - but the next day my iMac developed video
problems (fixed, under warranty, with a replacement video card) and after a
clean erase & install when I got the iMac back, I never got around to
re-installing - maybe I¹m superstitious?   ;o)
