Project 13: How to choose a wireless router

Speed Ratings: Some routers provide high speeds but won't necessarily increase the speed of your network, so get a router that provides sufficient speed.

Popular Models: Buy a router that has good ratings from buyers and critics.

Warranties: Always buy a router with a warranty just in case you're not entirely pleased with the router.

Cost: Don't assume that the latest models will provide the fastest speeds. Even the some of the older models can provide sufficient speed, so keep in mind that last years model can be just as good as this years model. Take the chance to buy something a good price.

Project 12: Wireless Routers - 3D Drawings

The power port utilizes electricity to allow the box to work.

The reset button resets the network connection.

The USB port allows for connection through the USB

The WAN port connects the box to the internet service provider.

The LAN port allows for internet connection with a ethernet wire.

The antenna provides wireless internet connection.

Computer Parts

i could have done better by making the pictures of the parts larger, but it would take too much space. i did good in finding the uses and price of each part listed.

Introduction to Personal Computers Notes

Outside: Monitor (output), keyboard(input), mouse (input), computer (processor)

Flash: Slide Animation

I think i did well with the transitions in between scenes, but i could have done better if i had put a better background.

Flash: Change Color

I think i did well with the placement of the racket at the appropriate time and with the placement of the ball. I could have done better by editing the background photo so that the net is closer to the right edge of the gif.

Flash: Change Color Sample

i could have done better by making the colors transition better and by making the fps lower.

Flash: Signature

i could have done better by making the signature smoother.
