Asus RT-N66U vs. TP-Link TL-WDR3600N for Gaming

Nice, Azazel, you've settled my mind. It's four walls and a floor, so it's considerable distance and interference (an old Motorola 3347-02 router gets almost zero signal down in that room), but I'll be adding to the range extender right off the bat.

Asus RT-N66U vs. TP-Link TL-WDR3600N for Gaming

The N66U is the king of 802.11n routers, but considering how this router will be used I'm not certain it's advantages justify the price difference. Chiefly this will be used for gaming on a PS4/PC, and it will also sometimes do double duty as a media router. Here is a hardware.info spec sheet...

Configuring a NAT Type 2 (for Destiny on PS4)?

Yeah, I tried that first, hoping a single checked box would spare me the work of configuring all those open ports, but it didn't work, so then I opened all the ports that I could specified at Port Forward for Destiny...which brought me here when I presumed that my inability to forward the...

Configuring a NAT Type 2 (for Destiny on PS4)?

Good to know. Thank you. This answers my question. I opened every other nec necessary port for both TCP & UDP directions. For any other with old, crappy, stubborn routers who are trying to game, not only should you visit Port Forward for specific step-by-step instructions and specific additional...

Configuring a NAT Type 2 (for Destiny on PS4)?

Okay, about the last part with the conflicting web server port which uses the "80" port I need to forward for the PS4, some more Googling turned up this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2201577?start=0&tstart=0 This post ran into the same conflict on this same router when he wanted...

Configuring a NAT Type 2 (for Destiny on PS4)?

Okay, so I'm experiencing massive connection issues with Destiny where I am routinely booted from the game. My network is Type 3, and of course all games warn that this may negatively affect game networking. Before I begin, I should note that there is another WiFi network I have also tried, with...

Should I Be Worried About This?

Here is some background info on the issue. Skip to the bottom if you want to get to just get straight to my concern over Roguekiller reporting IAT/EAT hooks, and its log file. Thank you. 411 ON INFECTION My younger brother contracted a massive adware infection on his computer. I cleaned...

Import Whitelist for NoScript?

Well, I was having startup, lag, and leak issues with Firefox, so I reset the browser. I use Siphon to synchronize my extensions, and XMarks to synchronize my bookmarks, so I thought this would be a virtually pain-free reset. Unfortunately, Siphon apparently doesn't sync the whitelist from...

Upcoming GTX 750 Ti tested

Which would be great if it wasn't an old HP office build on a unique form factor that isn't ATX compliant, and that you're just continuing to billow the budget here for a guy who really didn't want to spend more than $60 on a card. He was frustrated when I had to explain to him that because of...

Indeed, and that's why I went out of my way to explain that said adapter isn't an option for him.

HD 7870 or GTX 660 overkill for gaming at HD resolution?

No, it is not. Check the gaming benchmarks are TPU's reviews for the reference cards. First, understand that they are always run these on top of an aggressively overclocked i7 to ensure the CPU isn't a "bottleneck", so your CPU (though very capable) will probably result in lower FPS on your...

Upcoming GTX 750 Ti tested

Yes, duh, dude. Did you not read my post? How is his computer going to power a Radeon 7850 without a PCIe 6-pin power cable connector? How will it power a 260X? It won't. These have a TDP of 130W and 115W, respectively. So they're not an option, and therefore pointless in comparing or...

Upcoming GTX 750 Ti tested

There's so much focus on dedicated builders here that posters such as yourself sometimes forget that many people out there simply don't share your aims with your system, or are coming at gaming from a different angle. The GTX 750 Ti and GTX 750 are hands down the best video cards ever produced...

Excel Autofill Question

Awesome, that's definitely what I'm after. Thank you. But is there no way to tell Excel to continue a formula pattern like this down the column in perpetuity? I'm as much curious because I think understanding how to do this would be really useful in a lot of situations besides just this one...
