Cool Things You can Do with a Wireless Router That little box does a lot more than just transmit Internet through the airwaves Thanks to the proliferation of Wi-fi in laptops, cellphones and even tablets now, a wireless router has almost become a must at home. These little boxes that sit unnoticed in the corner of the room have evolved over the years, and can perform special tricks that could be of great benefit to you. What are these things? Check 'em out: Wireless Music Transmission Apple's Airport Express is a tiny router that's almost as big as the charging adapter for a Macbook. Other than the petite size, it has this one unique feature that lets you stream music wirelessly from your PC. It has a standard 3.5mm audio jack that lets you connect it to a pair of speakers or even that old music system you might have. So, you place the Airport Express next to the speakers, hook it up and access iTunes from your computer (Mac and Windows supported, no support for Linux). Once the computer is wirelessly connected to the router, it will give you the option to select which speakers you want to play the music from. Just toggle and voila, your music will start playing through those speakers despite you sitting meters away from it. This can come in handy especially when your laptop has all your music and you don't want to be tied down to a particular place. Wireless Printing This feature comes not just with the Airport Express, but also routers from other manufacturers (like the ASUS WL-520GU). There's a USB port on the router that lets you connect your printer for wirelessly firing a print command from a distance. Some even allow scanning. This is really useful if you have a laptop, as you don't have to walk over to the printer, connect the USB cable and then hit 'Print'. Although nowadays a few affordable printer-scanners come with Wi-fi built in, this feature will be of help to those printers that don't have Wi-fi. Automatic Bandwidth Management Imagine this situation, you've kept your P2P downloads on at full-blast and somebody tries to access the Internet using the web browser. That person will get frustrated with the page load times, and unless he or she doesn't know how to pause your downloads, the problem will persist. A great tool on some ASUS routers we saw was the EzQoS automatic bandwidth management. This is a setting in the firmware of the router itself, and lets you prioritize amongst a couple of preset Internet use-cases -- like Gaming, Internet browsing, VOIP/Video Streaming, and P2P file sharing. All you have to do is set your preferences, and the router will do the rest. ASUS even has a dummy configuration page for people to experience how it actually works. So, the next time when the aforementioned occurs, the router will slow down the P2P downloads and give priority to Internet page loads. Once you stop using the browser, the downloads again start full-steam! This can happen even when you start playing multi-player games or making an internet phone/video call. Lastly, since the control is in the hands of the router, it will manage bandwidth for multiple number of computers connected to it. This is needed, as automatic bandwidth management may be available in some download-related apps, but what will you do if the Internet isn't being accessed from the same computer? Download support Routers like the ASUS RT-N16 or the D-Link DIR 685 have a smart feature that possibly eliminates the need to buy a low-power rig dedicated to leeching content 24/7. While the former has a USB port to attach flash drives or external hard drives, the latter has a slot to contain a laptop HDD within the device itself. This in conjunction with a PC application or the router's interface itself will let the router download files directly without the need for any computer to be on. All you need to do is queue any HTTP, FTP or BitTorrent file and let the router do all the downloading. The supplied apps aren't advanced like the download managers or BitTorrent clients available for the PC, but they'll at least get the dirty work done and can save electricity too (especially if you have a heavy-duty gaming PC that you keep on constantly for downloading stuff). Share your 3G Internet Connection Some of you might be using those high-speed USB dongles like Tata Photon+, Reliance NetConnect+, BSNL 3G etc. Although they can be simply plugged and played with PCs, which have a USB port, what about devices that don't? Like a smartphone or a tablet? What if there were multiple computers in the house that wanted to use Internet at the same time? There are Wi-fi routers available on eBay India from various manufacturers that have a USB port that accepts these Internet dongles. Once setup, they can spread this mobile Internet love across multiple devices over typical Wi-fi. Neat huh? I'm sure there are a lot more interesting things one can do with a router. We'd love to hear from you if you know any. Thanks to Rohan Naravane Courtesy : Techtree

Guide: Use Beer To Boost Your Wi-Fi Router! How to amplify your router's radio signal by using a parabolic antenna. The main problem with home Wi-Fi setups is the fact that houses have walls. These evil contraptions of brick and mortar attenuate radio signals to a great degree. With enough of them between your router and portable device, the internet connectivity is reduced to crawling about at speeds reminiscent of the student \ shell accounts of yore. Yes, you can always upgrade to powerful 802.11n routers, which are generally outfitted with stronger radios, but where's the fun in that? Especially when you can use beer to boost the signal strength of your g-spec router instead? You heard that right - this DIY (Do-It-Yourself) guide will show you how to increase your router's coverage with nothing but two cans of the manly elixir, and maybe some chakna for good measure. Theory Of Operation The idea is to concentrate the radio waves for a stronger signal by employing a parabolic reflector. This increases Wi-Fi signal gain, thereby increasing its range and giving it enough grunt to pass through walls. It's the same principle used in big-*** military radars watching over the horizon for incoming aircraft and nuclear warheads. To give you an example of how effective this is, here's a graph obtained from a Wi-Fi monitoring utility that shows a healthy 15% increase in signal strength as soon as I deployed the parabolic booster on my router.. What You Need • Two beer cans (soft drink cans will work too, but they don't taste as good). • Heavy-duty scissors. • A box cutter, commonly referred to as just a cutter - the kind you cut paper with. • A roll of cellophane or preferably, double-sided tape. • 6 packaging wires (the wires used to tie up cables in retail packages). Alternatively, use any thin metal wire of similar length. • A sidekick, to help you with the final step. • First-aid kid (just in case). Step 1 Drink beer. Step 2 Cut off the rims at both ends of each can. Ignore the overkill USMC KA-BAR combat knife; you can use something saner, such as a box cutter. Step 3 Use scissors to cut the beer cans along their lengths. Step 4 Cut off thin strips from the ends to get rid of sharp edges. Don't throw the strips away; we'll have use for them later. This is how it should appear at the end. Step 5 Use any reasonably thick rod to flatten the sheets. This is achieved by rolling them against their natural curvature. Step 6 Join the two sheets together with cellophane tape, with the shiny sides facing away from each other. Unless, of course, you've signed a sponsorship deal with Vijay Mallya. This is how the end result should appear. Step 7 Strip the insulating material off the packaging twine to get at the metal wire inside. Step 8 Wind the leftover aluminium strips around a pen to create two rings. Hold them in place with cellophane tape. Step 9 Loop three packaging wires through each ring. Twist them around to lock them in place. Step 10 Use a thumb tack, divider, nail gun, Chuck Norris' eyelash, or any other pointed object to punch six holes through the sheets. Each hole near the corners (marked in black) should be 3 cm away from the short edge and 5 cm away from the long edge of the sheet. Punch two more holes, whose locations have been marked red in the figure. Note that these holes will lie exactly inbetween the corner holes. Step 11 Push each end of the wire through the holes made in the sheet. Step 12 Bend the sheet to form a parabolic shape and twist the wire ends at the back to retain the position, as shown in the second figure. Don't twist and lock the wires running through the middle holes just yet. Step 13 Install the parabolic booster by passing the router antenna through the aluminium rings. Step 14 Download, install, and run any free \ shareware Wi-Fi monitoring tool, such as this one. Step 15 Get a friend \ relative to assist you. While he monitors the signal strength in the utility, you need to adjust the length of the unsecured middle wire on each ring. This has to be done because maximum signal strength is achieved when the Wi-Fi antenna is at the correct distance from the parabolic aluminium sheet. Once your sidekick alerts you about the best signal strength as reported in the utility, twist the loose end of the wires to lock the position. The first image shows how to adjust the position, while the second illustrates how to lock it in place. Note that the parabolic antenna has been dismounted from the router in order to illustrate the above point better. In actual practice, the adjustments and locking should be completed while the parabolic antenna is mounted on the router. Congratulations, you have made your own parabolic Wi-Fi signal booster! Now you can enjoy better signal reception even in the remotest corners of your house. Except if you happen to live in a saas-bahu type haveli.

<< Topic Title Updated >> I had an issue with "Deals and You" in the recent past. I ordered for Philips headset @ Rs.379/- and made the payment through Net Banking. After a long wait for 21 Working Days, the product was not delivered at my place. Mailed them a couple of times and they replied back that they had given the list of buyers to their vendor and the vendor will dispatch the same soon. After about waiting for nearly 35 days I received a mail from them stating their vendor doesn't have stocks of the said product hence the refund will be credit back in my account in 7-8 workding days. I got the refund in another one week. I made up my mind that I will not purchase anything from DEALS AND YOU in the near future. Also there are many negative reviews of this site at many other forums. Some E-selling websites indulge in such practices and use customers money for a long period of time and that too "INTEREST FREE".... -

Amit Bhai, I don't think that comsumer court could be helpful in this regard now. As your LCD is not covered under warranty now....Agar warranty mein hota toh aap company ki WAAT laga sakte thhe. Once the warranty period is over then there are very less chances of winning the case in consumer court.....But you can still try your luck.
