Where in the World is Jawis?

April 10, 2007 by jawis Leave a Comment

First plot is from Hotel to airport. Second plot is from the plane to final destination of Hong Kong International Airport.   A few things to note:   The GPS plot from hotel to airport is accurate, but it seems to show that I started from the golf course. The error is in the satellite image. There seems to be a double up of a road not long after the plot begins. You should be able to make out the road that the plot should be following.   I did not get a GPS fix from the … [Read more...]

March 3, 2006 by jawis Leave a Comment

Installing the Bluetooth software (BlueSoleil) to XP was uneventful. After installation, XP was able to detect the dongle and allocated it to COM port 16. Next, using my PDA I 'discovered’ my desktop. I guess I could have done it the other way around, but the main thing was that pairing went off without a hitch. Not much different to pairing a headset, except you need to enter a password to both devices. If the pairing is correct, you should see ‘Activesync’ as a service … [Read more...]

Windows XP tip: Enable ClearType What is ClearType? ClearType is a nifty feature that a surprising number of users do not use.

Basic Wireless Router Setup Guide

October 10, 2005 by kai Leave a Comment

The first thing I would do is to change the default administrator password. for example most "Linksys" brand routers come preset from the factory with password of admin.  That means anyone can access the router if it is left on the default password!  So definitely change and remember your new username and password.  If you forget it, you can always push the reset button on the router. but that means you need to re-configure all specific settings again. I would highly recommend that you do the … [Read more...]
