Linksys by Cisco - WAG54G2 performance problem with sharing internet connection for more than one PC

If you have Linksys by Cisco - WAG54G2 and want to share the DSL internet connection by WLAN to many PC's you probably will face the problem that only one PC will get proper internet access while the other ones have very slow connection.

How to solve it? Since QoS implementation on WAG54G2 is very bad or poor, there is no way to resolve this by a software setting on the WAG54G2.

Instead you can use your old WLAN routers (if you have - or buy cheap new ones ...) and connect these routers to the WAG54G2 by Ethernet wire and setup a separate WLAN for each WLAN router and let each PC connect to one WLAN router only.





At least at my home it is working perfectly since several weeks. Hope it will work for you as well !!!
Why it makes such a difference? I really don't know ... ;-))

How to delete (or save / extract) large attachments in google mail / gmail to save storage in your google account

Google tells you that on GMAIL you never have to delete attachments, because you get such huge amount of storage. This might be correct for a very low traffic user, but if you really do a lot of business with it and have lots and large amount of attachments, it won't be enough by far.

There are nice attempts to resolve this automatically, but they all fail. A good example is IMAPSize, but I haven't found anybody who was successful with this tool.

Therefore I think there's still one solution to solve:

• Install Thunderbird E-Mail Clinet
• goto GMAIL web client, goto 'settings' and turn IMAP on, and check settings for deleting emails through IMAP
• Goto Thunderbird and add your Gmail account with IMAP acces to imap.googlemail.com / Port 993, username and passwort
• access then to your e-mails and chose 'all e-mails', click on the size column to get the largest e-mails. 
• click once on the e-mail on top and check the details below. On the very buttom you can see the attachments where you have then the options to delete /all and extract / all. 
• act as desired and very important - press the delete key - because thunderbird will create a copy of the e-mail without the attachments anyway and leave the original as it is! So if you don't press the delete-key both of the e-mails will remain there. One with and one without the attachment
• please consider your IMAP / delete - settings in the GMAIL web clients if you face any problems.

Hope this is more or less clear and works fine for you ... as well as for me ... ;-))

Window Taste funktioniert nicht (bei Medion Erazer)

Window Key not working any more (on Medion Erazer)

Falls plötzlich die Window-Taste beim Medion Erazer nicht mehr funktioniert, könnte es daran liegen, dass diese Taste aus versehen gedrückt worden ist:

Bei mir war das auch der Fall. Ich hatte zuerst keine Ahnung und habe mich beim Medion Support gemeldet. Diese hatten scheinbar auch keine Ahnung und wollten, dass ich das Notebook einschicke.

Zum Glück habe ich es dann selber noch gemerkt ... ;-))

How to watch MP4 Videos (from Teleboy) on XBOX 360 (convert for free with FormatFactory)

How to watch MP4 Videos (from Teleboy) on XBOX 360 /  (German: wie kann ich Videos von Teleboy.ch herunterladen, konvertieren und auf der XBOX 360 anschauen)

Download the MP4 files as needed from www.teleboy.ch (PRO account needed to download video files) and then use the free converter from FormatFactory (I used version 3.1.1), but just make sure to suppress all the unnecessary rubbish (banners, add-ons etc) while installing the FormatFactory.

Start FormatFactory,  chose "Mobile Gerät" then drag/drop drag/drop the original video files to the field "Dateiname" and click on "Zieldatei einstellen" and there select Microsoft / XBOX 720p MPEG4. Then press two times OK (to close both windows) and press start in the main panel to convert the video file.

That's it - good luck!
