Linux and 802.11n

. not using Windows drivers in compatibility mode. Windows drivers needed (don't all of them have them?) and MacOS drivers for the USB sticks preferred. 3. They need to be available, supported and legal in Israel. Thanks, Geoff. -- geoffrey mendelson N3OWJ/4X1GM Jerusalem Israel geoffreymendel

802.11N

Can anyone recommend a reliable 802.11N package? (router, USB and PCI clients). Must be availble in Israel. NATIVE Linux and Windows support a must, MacOS a plus. Thanks in advance, Geoff. -- geoffrey mendelson N3OWJ/4X1GM Jerusalem Israel geoffreymendel...@gmail.com

Re: Home Theatre computer

. In order to make live pause and backup work, MythTv always records what you are watching. The video you see is a playback of the recorded video. Depending upon the compression you use to record and the speed of your processors, the delay can be 2-3 seconds (or more). Geoff. -- geoffrey mendelson

Re: ISP Suggestion

, low latency connections? Netvision fits that. 012 does not. BTW, with a router, all ISP's are Linux friendly. Geoff. -- geoffrey mendelson N3OWJ/4X1GM Jerusalem Israel geoffreymendel...@gmail.com ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il

Re: ISP Suggestion

012 and netvision has had them, but moving to the other ISP fixed it. I assume that rebooting the router to get a fresh IP in another netblock would have also done it. Geoff. -- geoffrey mendelson N3OWJ/4X1GM Jerusalem Israel geoffreymendel...@gmail.com

Re: ISP Suggestion

should resolve that (it resolved it for me, in the past, and as far as I can tell this is a standard procedure that is probably available with all ISPs). Outbound port 25 is a problem with all ISPs. 587 may be a better choice, but it requires some work on your part. Geoff. -- geoffrey
