    Windows 7 Network can't seem to resolve address from name.

    So today I started having this weird error message that my network mapped drive to the server downstairs was no longer functioning. The gist of it is that this setup has been functioning for months without hiccup or problem. The only thing that has changed is I recently converted my routers...

  7. Windows 7 Upgrade your router for free: DD-WRT as a firmware upgrade

  8. Windows 7 HomeGroup simply doesn't work - no useful error message

    I've got two Windows 7 Pro machines that I'm trying to connect using a HomeGroup (partly just to see if it's useful, since I'm already pretty comfortable with normal windows network sharing), but this new, "easy" sharing system simply isn't working. Nor is it giving me any useful error message...

  11. Windows 7 DD WRT on WRT54G

    I flashed my Linksys wrt54g to use dd-wrt firmware. The advanced routing functions of DD WRT are amazing. However, I'm not so sure about the transmission rate. The default tx rate is 70. I've read in the past that excessive tx rates will cook the router. But I need to turn up this rate to...
