Hey gang, I am looking for some guidance here on what to buy. Currently I have RR through Time warner with their phone service. I have no issues with the service, but since TWC and Comcast are merging(or whatever), my cable modem will now cost me an additional $3/month. I was looking...

Linksys WSB24 work with WRT54G?

I bought this signal booster to increase my range on my older .B router and it works. I have recently bought the WRT54G and after doing some reading on the Linksys site, it seems that the WSB24 is ONLY for the BEFW11S4. Is this true?

About DVI cables...

NYHoustonMan, I am a recent purchaser of a new LCD and went through the learning that you are going through. Here is a link to a site that I found most educational in the area of differences in the cable types. Cheers, Chris

What it the advantage to buying a cable modem?

Grumpyman, You are right, with the replacement modem, it might be worth it. I disagree with your comment that it is 'free'. The cost of the modem rental/ usage is incorporated into the total pricing scheme of the monthly cost of the service. What I was hoping to do was achieve some sort...

What it the advantage to buying a cable modem?

Jamison, In your case you are fortunate to have had these units to be replaced. I wanted to get a feel of - Am I in a boat by myself with TWC or is everyone who subscribes to cable service equally screwed. It looks to be half and half so far. :)

What it the advantage to buying a cable modem?

Grumpyman, What I am looking at is cost benefit for my monthly service, not increase in speeds. My speeds are fine. When I pay my $44.95 per month cost, rolled into that cost is the modem usage/rental fee. If you look at it over the long run, if I pay $10 a month for 60 months for a cable...

What flavor of Linux to act as a print server?

Thanks for the response. I have a few NIC's laying around, I was gonna use a 3com 905, I figured that would be supported. If not, I have a netgear 311 and a Linksys or something in the drawer. The printer is an HP Laserjet 5M. Is there a way to see if that is supported by Debian?

How is WD's RMA?

I felt it was very effective. Totally automated, no having to call. If you use their diagnostic software and get an error code, you can get it replaced in a matter of weeks. The majority of the time is in shipping back and forth.
