Recently a friend of mine got a wii. She wants to play it online but she cant because they don’t have there router set up. Why is that well cause they didn’t know how so I’m hoping to fix that with this little tutorial. so here it is.
1) you need to unbox it there should be a Ethernet cord in the box.
2) look at the back of it there should be at least 5 Ports in the back 1 for the cable/DSL modem and 4 for computers.
3) now place the Ethernet going from your cable modem to the router (it is probably connected in the back of your PC right now)
4) Plug the Ethernet cord that came with the router into one of the Ports in back of the router and the other end plug in ware the cable modem we plugged in to on your PC.
5) Ok now turn on your computer and it may make some noise. now open up your internet browser ( Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Safari.) and type in 192.168.2.1 in the address bar.
6) Now you should see a page find ware it says login and just hit submit because there should be no password.
7) Now go to ware it says channel and SSID and just change the name from the default to something elts. Then hit apple.
8) now go to ware it says Security and chose what kind of Encryption type like WEP WPA. If your doing it to so the Wii can use it probably should do WEP. When you select it it should come up with a long line of numbers and letters write it down some ware you will need it when you go to your wii and set it up.
just hit apple and it should restart again and your online. I hope this is helpful to other people other than my friend.

More and more lately I look over at my cable box and think why are you still here. I never watch TV on my TV anymore. I’m about to walk out of my room with it in hand say here I don’t need it anymore. Most shows I watch are podcast and any TV shows I want to see are on hulu or the adobe media player. Its had to give it up because there is like one show can’t find that I can legally watch on the web and that is Big Bang Theory. Witch kind of shocks me that its not on the web. Well hopefully it will and there is the pirate bay to get the show if I really want to watch it. Its there fault they should have it on the web I would watch one maybe to ad’s if I have to but no its not on the web so tuff shit to CBS then. I'm almost serten now that I will do this though I’m not paying the cable bill so I probably will keep it.

I listen to alto of podcast and a few of them do tech support questions. A lot of times they get people that want to move from windows XP to Vista or PC to Mac but wont because of one or 2 applications that wont work with the new thing that they want. Well that's when the hosts sagest things like VMware and Parallels. These are good Virtual PC software but they are so expensive. I don’t see why they don’t tell them to use virtual box its a grate VM software and it is free. I'm sure there are things that VMware and Parallels can do that Virtual Box cant but I think if your still wanting to use older software and want the new thing too its grate.Revision 3’s system did an episode about VM’s it was grate and that is ware I first herd of Virtual Box. So try it you got nothing to lose its free and its grate for trying out Linux OS’s.

For awhile now we have been seeing the beginning of a new browser war. What I find funny is that it is with the same two browsers again. Internet explorer and Netscape great grandson Mozilla Firefox. It’s like a horror movie for Microsoft I think. They killed monster once (Netscape) and now in a new form it has come back stronger and better than it once was and now Microsoft has to fight it off again. But it is losing.
For thought’s of you who do not know what I’m talking about the browser war is what it was called when in 1993 Netscape came out with a browser called Netscape communicator and Microsoft soon relies that well maybe they would should get on this internet thing so they came out with internet explorer. By the end of the 90’s they had destroyed Netscape.
Although the original Netscape has been gone for a long time now the sores code floated around the internet and a company named Mozilla witched they then improved and slightly changed to be there first browser Mozilla. Then sometime latter it became Mozilla Firefox.
With Internet explorer 6 so in secure it gave a lot people a wreathen to switch from IE to Firefox. Which is now IE’s down fall and even with their soon to be realest Internet Explorer 8 hopes are not high? IE 8 is supposed to work better with web standers unlike other versions of IE. Although it does the mark of IE has already been made even their own sites do not work right yet with IE 8 because most web servers see IE and render the page how IE likes it to be render.
I think this just show that IE is paying for its sins you could say. I’m not saying there will be a world without IE cause its part of windows and although I don’t use it much there are times when flash or some plug in go’s bad in Firefox and it just won’t work right and I need to get something done and that is ware IE comes in handy cause it has sonority so every web page works with it. Though I’ am glad for Firefox I love some many featchers in it that I couldn’t just name one or two. So who ever winds this time I hope doesn’t become a tyrant like Microsoft did.
