Need help: Networking - Desktop - Laptop - Phone

mudster — Mon, 24 Jul 2017 15:22:00 +0800

Hi Guys,

I need help to configure the settings on my laptop and desktop. I have tried using ICS on the laptop ( both on LAN & Wireless), but while the laptop has internet access, the Desktop is always showing disconnected from internet. Cable is confirmed to be okay, and I have tried both straight and crossover.

Any ideas? Topology as below for reference.

Desktop PC (LAN connection only) -> Laptop (LAN & Wireless) -> Phone (Wifi tether) -> Internet

This is crucial, as the area where the desktop is at has no wired internet access.

Feedback on Malaysian Hybrid Cars in general

mudster — Thu, 05 Jan 2017 14:17:14 +0800

Just curious, is it expensive to repair a hybrid? For example the inverter, engine, battery, etc.?

Also, does it happen often? Who here got bad experience with Hybrids?

Thinking of the Ioniq, but people say don't buy hybrid cars... expensive to repair later on if got problem.

Diesel vs Petrol vs Hybrids

mudster — Wed, 13 Jul 2016 10:40:06 +0800

I am thinking of changing cars soon (probably next year), and need some info before making a decision. I tried googling, but not enough info on the internet to make an informed decision.

I am looking for a list of Diesel vs Petrol vs Hybrid pros and cons, and also a list of Diesel vehicles (sedan, suv or hatchback, non-pickup) available in Malaysia.

Appreciate the help!

Cheers.

Sony DCS-WX500/HX90/HX90V

Sony just announced the DCS-WX500, HX90 & HX90V compact travel zoom.

http://www.dpreview.com/articles/729665674...pact-superzooms

Body is small like RX100 series, but with smaller 2/3" sensor. They also have a rubberized grip for better handling.

Both got 30x zoom and selfie-tilt 3.0" screen, and the HX90 has extendable EVF like the RX100 M3 (but lower res).

My question is any ideas if the cameras will be any good? Also, when do you guys think it will be available in Malaysia? Panasonic TZ70/ZS50 also not yet arrived. This one dunno when will come here.

I know some of you are probably playing this. How's the story so far? I've just finished the 3rd dungeon and on the way to the 4th one.

There's a couple of spoilers below for those who can't wait.

I hit a WiiVC-DS idea!

mudster — Tue, 25 Jul 2006 01:10:30 +0800

(I posted the following on gamefaqs-Wii General board too)

QUOTE

I just hit an idea.

Program a game that is downloadable using the VC for a low price, playable in short burst, but high on multiplayer content.

Use the Wifi in the Wii and use the download play option on the DS to load the game. Ergo, huge LAN party!

Or using the same method, make the Wii into a sort of server that can host the multiplayer games on such VC-DS games, but also allowing access to chatrooms, VoIP and stuff like that.

Whatcha all think?

DS Opera Browser

mudster — Thu, 29 Jun 2006 17:04:38 +0800

I need to know if any shop is going to stock up on the browser when it comes out in July. Any guesses how much it will cost fter mark-up and middle man profits?

Current info:

Release date: 24 July 2006
Country: Japan
Price: USD$33 MYR125.40
Each box comes with:
1xRAM catridge (gba slot) - 2 types one for DS fat one for DS lite
1xOpera Browser DS Card

So far does NOT support the following:
1. Flash
2. Sound
3. Video
4. PDF

Also, is anybody getting one? I may get it as soon as it comes out. WiFi + Browser + google talk = online chatting almost anywhere.
