Many 200 Mb/s powerline adapters nowadays are based on the INTELLON 6300 chipset. Despite what can be thought looking at them, they are all using the same hardware and firmwares. I heard many people with Netgear XAV101 or Linksys PLK 200 or PLE 200 having problems after firmware updates and many other people with other brands having much more problems because of lack of support or configuration/upgrade utilities. So let me explain a few things I learnt studying them. Many of 200 Mb/s powerline ethernet adapters follow the "HomePlug AV" standard. (85 Mb adapters use HomePlug 1.0 standard which is completely different). This standard uses ethernet broadcast packets using the HomePlug AV protocol. The interesting thing is that their firmware is made of two different parts: a .PIB file (Parameter Information Block) and a .NVM file (the code itself). In the P.I.B. there are many interesting things: The branding (mac address, device name, etc) and the tone map. I test

I think christmas is no longer a thing of religion. I think it is just a momment to gather up all your family, exchange gifts and just celebrate and be happy. I don't know if it is just me and my friends but that is what christmas has turned to. Actually we laugh and joke about wishing each other happy santa claus' bithday day.
ReplyDeleteI hope it doesn't sound offensive but I think that's just the way it is.
@Carolyna y Yayo:
ReplyDeleteYep he's doing well.

Goodluck Zibri! and many thanks!!! May the force be with you!!!
@Nelson:
ReplyDeleteI'll never forget that day.
But it has been a little more shocking:
He came to life at the 31st week.
He was not breathing.
He has been transferred immediately in a hospital for "Newborn Intensive care".
You can see a few pictures on my flickr page..
In the first days his life was at stake.. but after that he improved every single day, gaining weight and health.
He is now 2.6 Kg.
When I first saw him I started to cry and I cried every 3-4 minutes.
Feelings were overwhelming.
Oh.. and the force will be with him! His name is Luca (the italian name for Luke) :D
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Zi and family!!
ReplyDeleteMy X'mas wish, hope Zi could publish Ziphone 3G so I could get my 3G iphone for X'mas as I have been listening to Zi to stay with 1st gen iphone. Or should I stay till iphone nano is out?!?
