What are some things I should be looking for in picking out a good wireless router? I'm helping my parents pick out and setup a second wireless router for their house, but besides making sure it supports wireless N and being backwards compatible with g, I don't know what makes one router better than others, which brands are more reliable, etc. Can anyone clue me in on what else I should be looking at?

I'm preferably looking for something in the $50-60 range.

Hi guys. I bought a galaxy tab 3 just 3 days ago. I was charging it last night via usb and it was still working fine but the charging was really slow so decided to plug it into a wall socket but as soon as I did, it decided not to charge anymore. Plugged it back to my computer and that's not working anymore too. I hope anyone can help or at least experienced something similar. I really doubt its battery died or the charger broke but more like having a bug between the two(?) idk...

Have you tried hard resetting it or reseating the battery if possible?

Nothing shows up whenever I try resetting it(assuming I'm doing it right: power button + volume up). I don't think reseating the battery myself is possible.

Same result. I'm afraid there's nothing I can do and I have to go get it opened, maybe even get the battery replaced in case it somehow died for some reason .

I'm looking to buy a laptop for under $1000.
I will be taking it with me everywhere & it needs to be able to handle Adobe Creative Cloud programs
Don't care about playing games on it (as long as it can handle BW).
Reliability is probably my number one concern.
What laptops should I check out?

1000... USD? Where can you buy from? Shipping time, etc.? (or another fake country tag?)

Ideally you want some business-class notebook with a modern i7. These tend to have sturdier hardware and more validation testing, often so much so that they're several months late on adopting current-generation CPUs. For example, Lenovo Thinkpad T / W series haven't been upgraded to Haswell (4th gen Core) processors yet.

Good to know, those Lenovos look sweet.
I've been looking at the MacBook air 11'' & the ASUS Zenbook 11''
It looks like the MacBook has that 4th gen upgraded technology

ULV processors (MBA/Zenbook) of any designation are far weaker than the full voltage i7's in threaded work that Myrm recommended. Whether or not you need that processing power or not is something only you know though.

Yeah, I guess the question is what you're doing in those Adobe programs (and which?). I assumed it was something relatively intensive or else it's not worth bringing up, though that could be a bad assumption.

And I should have specified quad core i7. That's my bad.

I moved my users folder off my SSD to a secondary disk (Windows 8) with a junction link (so C:\Users links to D:\Users)

That means all my temporary files are also moved and I don't have to worry about random temp caching writes to my SSD right?

(Also I've reduced page file, changed the defrag task to run without the $ parameter, and disabled hibernation. Anything I'm forgetting?)

There's another C:\Windows\Temp for programs that don't run as a normal user.

I think what you're forgetting is that you bought the SSD for things to get faster. If it's not used, it can't do its job of making things faster.

On Windows 8, about that defrag tool, it should look like this: http://i.imgur.com/eIiMJzU.png

If it does not look like that for you, your Windows 8 does not know about your new drive being an SSD, you need to click this: http://i.imgur.com/s6lzjfw.png

Quick question:

Best (fastest) 2TB HD for a desktop.

SSD are suppose to be faster, but I also hear they are more prone to crashes- is that true?

My primary focus is on Video game play and recording all on max settings.

I run a I7-4770 @ 3.4
16Gig ram @2133 clock
GTX titan
1ms gtg Moniter

Want to make sure my new HD doesn't slow me down

Looking for advice and potential products.
Price isn't a factor.
Reliability, consistency, and capability are.

Thanks

Edit: I am currently using a 120GB SSD to run windows/Anti Virus software
While using a non dynamic Sata 6 3TB HD for all programs and applications.
What are the consequences of dynamic vs non dynamic HDs

Want to find a 2TB HD to add to my system.

No, SSDs are not more prone to crashes. If you are recording than you want a 2TB Caviar Black for the recording drive and than an SSD or another HDD for your primary drive.

thanks for the answer, by chance do you know/can you explain:
What are the consequences of dynamic vs non dynamic HDs

Also why use SATA for recording over SSD?

Because you may want to use lossless recording (it's easier than other especially if you don't have a ton of cpu power) which can take a lot of data, and 1tb ssd's are expensive

If you don't know what dynamic is than you shouldn't be using it since it's worthless for home use. Dynamic basically allows you to add more space.
