England's Orwellian Government

It appears that 1984 has finally arrived in England. A scientist giving scientific advice has been fired because it differed from policy.

There are only cowards in the political branch of Her Majesty's government.

Installing Linksys Router to Comcast Cable Broadband Internet

I had a small problem when I attempted to move my Linksys router upstairs ... I couldn't get an internet connection!

Okay, a big problem. I did a power cycle, but that didn't seem to work. Until I figured out I need to take out the batter on the Comcast modem to shut it down.

Here's how to power cycle your system to install your router to your broadband connection:

1. Shut down the router, computer, and modem in any order. Unplug the modem and router, and make certain there's no battery backup for the modem ... if you use your cable company for telephone service, there probably is a battery. You must take this out.

2. Wait one minute, and while you wait make sure all the connections are correct. You should have a connection from the cable modem to the router, put in the plug where it says "Internet". You should have a connection from the router to the computer, doesn't matter which of the ports you use.

3. Power up everything, starting with the modem battery, modem plug, router, then turn on the computer. Wait at least ten seconds after each piece powers on before turning on the next.

4. You should be done! At this point I lost the little exclamation point in the task bar in the lower right hand corner that told me Windows 7 had a problem finding my internet connection.

5. Log into your router to set up security and your wireless passwords, etc. On my linksys, I type 192.168.1.1 into the http address bar. When it asks for a user and password I type "admin" for both. Usually the password for your router is printed on the router itself.
