Crummy tech support and Byzantine install offsets solid tech
The good? Wireless speeds are in excess of the 802.11g spec, so I am getting 100-110Mbps (12.5-13.5 MBps) from the basement to the living room easily. Once the initial horror of setup was over, I’ve been happily connected ever since. And you can’t beat [...]

Reporter helps catch thieves!
On our 60 acres, thieves had broken into our new home under construction, stealing $19,000 worth of equipment, tools and supplies. After installing the Reporter, a problem arose, every time deer moved about, the alarm would sound and my husband would have to go check it. After many false alarms much to [...]

Terrible Product. Terrible Company.
I should have known better. I’m a geek (I’ve owned more than 20 computers/servers in my >10 years as a software engineer and I’ve setup >10 wired/wireless networks for friends and family), so when I read all of the bad reviews on this product, I just figured it was people who couldn’t [...]

Sending it back
After all the things I’ve ordered from Amazon, I am finally returning one. This one! Why design an item that will suction cup to the windows (and be turnable) then put on tiny cups? It fell down every 5 minutes at first, and every 30 seconds after an hour. (No, I’m not joking.) [...]

If it ain’t broke, why break it?
First, I would like to say that I love my original [discontinued] Gyration Ultra. It was first generation and performed incredibly for a good six or seven years. Unfortunately, due to planned obsolescence, I could not service the worn out batteries in the molded battery pack and decided to [...]

Rip it apart!
This is a “deconstructive” review of Hawking’s corner reflector. Basically I took it apart so you don’t have to! BTW - I am an RF engineer, so I apologize if it gets too technical.
First let me provide a explanation of what a “corner reflector antenna” is. A corner reflector antenna is a very [...]

Verizon: Works great in Colorado!
Yes, this item works well. But yes, it takes some RF and electronics knowledge to make it work right. For me, I have verizon cell phones operating in the 800MHZ cell band in my area. In my house we had zero to 1 bar and could make [...]

Great Router… with DD-WRT installed
I was looking for a Wireless-N router (the newest form of wireless connectivity) as most of my computers and consoles (Xbox 360 has a new wireless dongle) now have Wireless N technology. This was cheap and had fairly decent reviews so I decided to take a chance. The item arrived fairly [...]

Battery Hog
As a financial statement auditor this product looked perfect for fieldwork since both the mouse and 10-key used the same USB port. The product works wonderfully and doesn’t have conflicts with my co-workers wireless mice. The only problem, which is somewhat significant is that the mouse uses two AAA batteries and I [...]
