How to prevent lag on XBOX Live?
Q. I like to play FIFA 10 live. It's very slow most of the time, it takes longer for the players to react to the commands. I was thinking about getting a much more powerful cable modem and router. I already have the fastest internet speed available from my provider. Would an equipment upgrade be more sufficient. Any suggestions or ideas very much appreciated.

A. From what I was tought in the Military, the US Army based its radios and equipment on the +24VDC standard to be powered by vehicles and DC generators already used by the Military. The +24VDC is used because the +12VDC used in most other vehicles made in the US at the time could not provide the power ( amperage) needed to supply radios and charge batteries at the same time. By using +24VDC vs +12VDC, existing wiring could be used by the civilian contractors that make vehicles for the Military; and the power capacity of existing systems can essentially be doubled. Otherwise all the wiring and components would have to be upgraded; increasing weight, manufacturing time, and cost. For example if you ever used a cheap set of jumper cables… [cont.]

I want to set up a wireless network and am no IT expert! What equipment do I need ?
Q. I have NTL broadband as provider. My older PC has no ethernet connection so is presently connected via USB. I now have a new PC with a wireless connection and also a laptop which is wireless enabled. I was hoping to use older PC connected to the cable modem and then have new PC & laptop pick up wireless connectivity - is that feasible & if so what equipment do I need to buy - it's a minefield out there !! Thanks so much in advance for anybody's help.
