- jonasblue, on 05/07/2008, -1/+162Man, what CAN'T you do with a second Ethernet port?!
- Spo8, on 05/07/2008, -1/+137Take a single ethernet cord. Plug one end into the first port and the other end into the second.
Proceed to divide by zero. - moocow1452, on 05/07/2008, -1/+123Well this is all rendered moot for me, cause I have three Ethernet Ports. And this cake.
- tnoy, on 05/07/2008, -1/+107Get laid.
I have 5, and still nothing. - FapCommander, on 05/07/2008, -1/+78I don't understand the problem... Can't you just get a pci-e gfx card, they are better then agp ones anyway
- unusualbob, on 05/07/2008, -0/+71PCIe= 4 GB/s in each direction
AGP= 2 GB/s - elvis699, on 05/07/2008, -4/+74I just have my xbox connected to my second one to play live. works a treat and didn't have to buy the bloody wifi for the xbox :)
- psykiv, on 05/07/2008, -0/+59I however, will not be disappointed. As you see, I have three ps3's.
- synystar, on 05/07/2008, -0/+54Reading the title/description I was going make a comment suggesting bridging or firewalling. Then I RTFA and realized that sometimes it pays off and you don't look like such an idiot.
- Rikushix, on 05/07/2008, -0/+35AGP is incredibly old, I suggest you buy a new video card.
I'm not one to talk, however; I bought a computer from Future Shop about three years back and it didn't even have an AGP port. Just PCI. As a result I ran a Radeon 9250 on it...I'm in the process of actually building a computer that can run real games... - dasdef, on 05/07/2008, -0/+31i dont understand. You have a dual core and you wish you had an AGP slot? AGP is so dated i dont understand why you dont just buy a pcie video card as they are getting to be very cheap. You can find older 7900GT's for less than 70 Used.
- CoreGMRConMan, on 05/07/2008, -2/+32i have no idea what you are saying.
- vexingmodstwo, on 05/07/2008, -3/+32*scratches chin pensively*...
Yeah, I still have no idea what any of that means. - tidu, on 05/07/2008, -2/+29You're complaining about no on-board video? You flaunt your Dualcore 2.4ghz and then want on-board video...?
And firewire is not useless. It's really common in cameras.
And you know the box the mobo came in had PICTURES on it, so you could see what you were getting... - charbo187, on 05/07/2008, -0/+26PCIe > AGP > PCI
- killdashnine, on 05/07/2008, -3/+29It's good to finally have that answered ... and realize that I'll never, ever, actually use it. Money well spent!
- inactive, on 05/07/2008, -2/+27Other way around.
- HotttCarl, on 05/07/2008, -1/+24My fiance won't let me use her "other port"
- adambadam, on 05/07/2008, -16/+37Anyone click on this thinking it was going to be humorous? I was thinking along the lines of an Ethernet toaster.
- Akaji, on 05/07/2008, -3/+23Do you even get 10 Mbps coming in? Other than LAN stuff, I don't know why you'd need more than 10 Mbps...
- ToadLeg, on 05/07/2008, -0/+20The "10 Mbps" in this case means the wireless card is running in "10 Mbps mode." Often the usable speed will be much lower than that, because it will drop a lot of packets between the router and the wireless card. I don't see what iDe1337's point is though - This article is talking about having 2 Ethernet ports, not about whether having wireless or Ethernet on a laptop is "good."
- Nougat, on 05/07/2008, -6/+25From a Windows engineer who is gaining some experience with Linux via Ubuntu:
You could not be more wrong about that. - RyeBrye, on 05/07/2008, -1/+20Bonding channels + Xen = sweet...
You can bond your channels together in a failover, and have your xen guests use the bonded channel as the network device... (here's a good article on it - http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/power/ps1q07- ... )
With this setup, you can ssh into your xen guest - and pull the plug on your active NIC and not have the session drop as it fails over to the other NIC. - BoneStamp, on 05/07/2008, -3/+21It's because you're using them to connect to digg. Connect to craigslist and you could probably get laid tonight...
- suntzusputnik, on 05/07/2008, -6/+24Linux, when used, does not mean that you know well how to use a computer.
- antdude, on 05/07/2008, -9/+26Cake is a lie.
- inactive, on 05/07/2008, -0/+17Yeah I've got the same problem, my VLB Trident card doesn't fit so I have to use serial tty.
- asforme, on 05/07/2008, -0/+16Based on the mac address of your cable modem, not your nic on your computer.
- mparker7410, on 05/07/2008, -1/+16Put my ABC gum in it.
- iRelinquish, on 05/07/2008, -3/+18BRIDGER!!!!!!! From halo 2!
- Nezzari, on 05/07/2008, -0/+15Comcast recerntly began offering 25Mbit lines in my area. I would be ticked if my usenet downloads slowled down to 10Mbps.
- journey4712, on 05/07/2008, -1/+14http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Enau4SKqeZY
- homesqua, on 05/07/2008, -0/+13i heard from this one guy that if you never get on the internet again your account will auto-undigg the story. try it
- ayeroxor, on 05/07/2008, -0/+13Oooh Linux nerd battles. Ready........ FIGHT!
- JoeVet, on 05/07/2008, -0/+13My computer didn't even come with a 5 1/2" floppy drive! /s
- tidu, on 05/07/2008, -0/+12he probably mods and superjumps too
- foltaggio, on 07/11/2008, -0/+11I have four Ethernet ports, also I have this chicken.
- tcpip4lyfe, on 05/07/2008, -0/+11I don't have enough slots to run my 3DFX Voodoo Graphics card so I'm stuck with a gforce 768mb 8800 gtx.
- inactive, on 05/07/2008, -0/+11Mixing 2002ish with 2007ish?
- Eimi, on 05/07/2008, -0/+11Unless your dorm gives you 2x 100mbps ports and you bond them together to get more internet than should ever be given to one man. And that man is me.
- commenter01, on 05/07/2008, -1/+12^ nicely done. crisp, concise, and to the point.
- CSharpSauce, on 05/07/2008, -1/+12Shame on you digg.... burring a guy who is suggesting an Ethernet Toaster
- thatspsychotic, on 05/07/2008, -1/+11needs more "/sarcasm" qualifier.
- AJoseph, on 05/07/2008, -3/+13That's a pretty ignorant comment. Linux is linux. Slap a pretty GUI/desktop environment on top, is like modding/painting a car. It's still a car, it just looks awesome and has some cool interfacing features. It simply automates things to make the lives of less-savvy users easier.
- Klowner, on 05/07/2008, -0/+10A secondary underground network that runs parallel to your current LAN, duh.. You know, for.. things and stuff.
- Aensland, on 05/07/2008, -0/+10Maybe throw in > ISA at the end there.
- dougsk, on 05/07/2008, -0/+10I do, and he makes a fantastic point: Transmit Load Balancing (redundant switches), but if you really nead TLB, then you probably have switches the support ARP spoofing, and then as a good network admin, you've probably turned the ability to spoof ARP off and the effectiveness of TLB goes away. Instead, the switch supports LACP, in which case, you get transmit AND receive load balancing, which is quite useful for the backup server. course the problem is, with lacp you lose switch redundancy)
- Supadude, on 05/07/2008, -0/+10For porn.
- jellygraph, on 05/07/2008, -1/+10PCIe > AGP > PCI > ISA > EISA > Paper
