DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE WHAT ROUTER I BUY IF I PLAN ON WIRED NETWORK

First OFF... Please excuse my lack of computer savvy.  I know just enough to get me in trouble.

I have two computers in the House that I intend to run the my modem cat6 cable cable on a new router (type advice pending) then on my two computers.

I am connected to Comcast high-speed internet cable and you just want to connect two computers at home, with the fastest speed available.  I was told to buy a less expensive router and it would work just as well as an expensive one.  As long as it is hard wired it won't make any difference in speed.

Sounds easy, I get good advice?  If anyone has the time, I would really like to get this resolved so I can buy a router and configure my network.  Any advice on what router buy would be really appreciated.

Thank you, Sunshine State

1. make sure that your modem is only a modem and not already a router. Some ISPS 'modems' are in fact roads with built-in modem.

2. most current routers should be able to handle the current speeds of the Internet standard. Only if you have a very fast internet connection or intend to buy an older model, it is perhaps not able to manage your Internet speed. Check a Web site like smallnetbuilder for speed trials.

But that would make almost any router.

  • Does make a difference what PowerCLI version to use?

    We are on U2 5.0 ESXi and vCenter 5.0 U2.

    Does make a difference what PowerCLI version we use?
    If so, how to determine the version currently used?

    And what PowerCLI version corresponds to 5.0 U2 and where and how do I get it?
    Thank you, Tom

    I strongly recommend to always use the latest version of PowerCLI. For the moment, it's PowerCLI 5.1 Release 2. The latest version has more features and less bugs. You can see in the release notes which vSphere and vCenter versions are supported. For PowerCLI 5.1 Release 2, these are:

    VMware vSphere PowerCLI 5.1 version 2 supports the following VMware environments:

    • vCenter Server 5.1.0a
    • VMware ESXi 5.1.0a
    • vCenter Server 5.0 Update 2
    • VMware ESXi 5.0 Update 2
    • vCenter Server 4.1 Update 3
    • VMware ESXi 4.1 Update 3
    • VMware ESX 4.1 update 3
    • vCenter Server 4.0 Update 4
    • VMware ESX 4.0 Update 4
    • VMware ESX 4.0i update 4

    So U2 5.0 ESXi and vCenter 5.0 U2. are fully supported in PowerCLI 5.1 Release 2.

    You can check your PowerCLI version with the following PowerCLI:

    Get-PowerCLIVersion

    PowerCLI 5.1 Release 2 also shows version in the title bar of the window PowerCLI.

    You can download the latest PowerCLI version at: http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/automationtools/powercli

  • What difference does make if I don't use the XMLTYPE expressed during insertion?

    Using the table
    CREATE TABLE flower_data(flower_id NUMBER(3), flower_xml XMLTYPE)
      XMLTYPE COLUMN flower_xml STORE AS BINARY XML;
    Does make a difference if I insert the data without the casting, XMLTYPE in the insert statement?

    For example if I use:
    INSERT INTO flower_data (flower_id, flower_xml) VALUES
    (1,' <flower>
       <name>lavender</name>
       <color>lilac</color>
       <lower-zone>9</lower-zone>
       <higher-zone>11</higher-zone>
    </flower>'
    );
    instead of*.
    INSERT INTO flower_data (flower_id, flower_xml) VALUES
    (1, XMLTYPE('<flower>
       <name>lavender</name>
       <color>lilac</color>
       <lower-zone>9</lower-zone>
       <higher-zone>11</higher-zone>
    </flower>')
    );
    Both versions work.

    Thank you.

    The implicit conversion is more expensive that the cast explicit.

    Consider the following:

    CREATE TABLE t (testcol NUMBER);
    
    INSERT INTO t VALUES ('1');
    

    Can you? Yes
    Should you? NO.

  • What type of DVD should I buy to burn my Windows Movie Maker movie? Also, I have Windows DVD Maker, but no DVD burner. What should I buy?

    I created a movie in Movie Maker.  I bought some DVD + r's - the correct burn the movie on?  Also, I don't have a burner, I thought that I did, I can only burn a CD what should I buy?  I don't have a Windows DVD authoring program.

    Hi rondah,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft community newsgroups.

    The type of recordable DVD, you need to use depends on your DVD burner, as well as on your DVD player. Some DVD burners can burn only to certain types of DVD recordable. For example, with some DVD burners, you can only record to DVD + R discs or DVD + RW or DVD-R or DVD - RW discs, while some other DVD burners will let you burn on all of these recordable DVD types.

    As long as your DVD burner supports burning to these types of discs, you can use Windows DVD creation to burn a DVD using one of the following types of recordable and re-recordable DVD media: DVD + R, DVD + RW, DVD - R, DVD - RW, and DVD - ROM. These recordable or rewritable DVDs can be either simple single laminate or single sided double layer.

    You should also consider the device you're using to play the DVD once you have engraved, if possible. Some DVD players and DVD - ROM drives play only certain types of DVD. To determine what types of DVDs your DVD player or DVD - ROM drive can play, see the documentation that came with your device or go to the manufacturer's Web site.

  • I have photoshop element 11 and does not convert to CMYK. What should I buy to get the printable work?

    I buy photoshop element 11 because it says on the box that we could print yourself or by professional but they the RGB is not good enough for their even if printers I optimizing it. I need to do a lot of design for print. What should I buy then?

    At the time where ever we talk about several projects page, InDesign is what you really need. Illustrator certainly has the edge when it comes to exceptionally sophisticated vector operations, but really, it doesn't support features story layout and several pages in the way that InDesign.

    Note, however, that Illustrator and InDesign are professional graphics programs top of range with fairly steep learning curves.

  • What should I buy? .......... Laptop Dell, PC or all-in-1.

    My laptop current is 6 years old and I think it comes to DIE.  I think buying the new system for myself, but I'm still as disturbing as what to buy...

    Should I buy a laptop (but I want to need more than 5 USB slots I have 3 external HDD & Scanner, printers)... I don't want to settle for USB hubs.  Should I buy a PC... but I know PC will disappear soon and also, I don't have a luxury to have the space to store Mini towers, I cannot get desktop LTS.  But I want to add USB3.0, but fear it would work... as SFF does not support have added additional stuff.

    I need to buy everything-in1,... but I don't think not AIO are good, because they are still in the infant stage and in addition, if the screen breaks... the whole system doesn't help... really ugly in revaluations too.

    So... what should I buy, I thought to get the years 620 desktop PC Inspiron, but also to make a Dell laptop instead.

    What are your thoughts.  Thanks for sharing.

    My standard recommendation to all my clients is to "buy your portfolio can stand" - not to skimp or buy the cheapest or lowest model equipped as you will eventually get more or improve.

    If you do not want to make any upgrade or adding then a desktop computer is the only one to consider and a full size desk, not one of the "S" or compact models because they are very limited on the upgrade.  They do not use a standard power supply ATX type then you will be also limited here.  They can only use 'low profile' add on cards, but due to the limitation of power supply, there is also a severe limitation on scalability and upgrade cards.

    Most of the laptops were not the number of desired USB ports.  On the Dell only that maybe that would be the high end Alienware models.

    I don't like any in those or the touch screen or other models.  They are very limited in any update.

    I did not really answer your question, but more food for thought.

  • About the RAM, I have 32 GB...... is there any advantage to allocate a large amount of this, or is there a limit that really MAKES a DIFFERENCE...?

    It depends on what you are doing and the rest of your system.  Eventually, if you like the video, it will impact.  But for still images, it is unlikely you will come anywhere close to that.  You can check it by placing the bar at the bottom left of the screen to show effectiveness.  As long as you use only RAM it will say 100%.  If you go below, you use your drive to work.  But even in this case, use to scratch a little, if you have an SSD, is not a big deal.

    Even my laptop 8 GB rarely gets bogged down (but I close the old files).  My 16 GB Office doesn't happen nearby.  But I'm not video.

  • So who should I have installed now? the beta version or your latest version? or if it makes no difference?

    I've always had the beta installed version to get the latest version, but now the version 14 is out should I abandon the beta version and install the version 14 or if it makes no difference?

    Hello

    Just to add to what said Tyler, if you use Sync, you can have a release or beta version installed, but not both (in this perspective, it makes a difference).

    Even if it is very slow, you must make a return upwards before the race "repair disk". The risk of data loss is minimal, but do it anyway: Save and run to repair the disk.

    As for what it implies - most of the time nothing more than simply sitting and waiting to do his thing.

  • How to make the difference between the mouse down events in the control of the chain (click on contour vs click Center)?

    Hello

    I have a control over the chain on my UI and I would like to make the difference between mouse different events, that is to say, to be able to differentiate a click on the outline or the label of the controller vs right-clicking on the Center (between the control in "edit" mode)

    The reason is that sometimes if the user does click not in the Center but in the scope of control, Labview fires the mouse event down but the typed keys are not registered...

    Is it possible to distinguish the two?

    Thanks a lot for your help

    Set the string "update as you type" and use instead a "changed value" event Now, the event fires whenever a new character is entered.
