    Win10 Jump Lists - Increase Size?

    The jump lists in windows 10 are tiny! The taskbar jumplists are showing up to 12 items and do not appear to be configurable in any way. In Windows 7 and 8, you were able to customize the number of displayed items. I had mine set to 20. Is there any way to tweak this setting? I have...

    Port Forwarding Not Working

    Hi. I had an old linksys router running DDWRT. I bought a new Asus RT-N16 and finally set it up. I had to just duplicate the settings by hand as you cannot back them up across different hardware models even though both are running DDWRT. I hooked up the new router and everything was...

    Linksys WRT54GL and switches

    What kind of switch is in the Linksys WRT54GL? Is it a gigabit switch? I have a DD-WRT flashed WRT54GL at home and I have a file server on my network. Lately I've been wondering if the switch in the router is gigabit, and if it makes sense to use the router's switch or just use it for...

    Controller Preference: 360 or PS3?

    Which do you prefer? Personally, I hate the placement of the left stick on the 360. It feels awkward and unnatural, like I have to contort my thumb in some strange way. I feel like I can aim more accurately with the ps3 stick due to that. Although I will disclaim the fact that I have not...
