In this article I will teach you how to secure your wireless network if you are using Netgear Wireless Router. This applies to other routers, they only differ in some menu orientation but follows the same concept. This is in response to Raszonjenny who asked in the comments.

Configuring the router to require a passkey or passphrase to connect, to prevent unwanted workstations to use your network or internet connection.

I highly recomment using WPA/WPA2 for encryption, WEP is so easy to crack. With the right tools and know how, you can easily crack it in less than 20 minutes.

So here goes with the walkthrough after the break.

Globe Wimax doesn't allow port forwarding

This is Teamviewer 6 on a Debian Linux

Have you been a Globe Wimax subscriber and realized, why can't I forward a port? You need to forward your port if you have an IP Camera in your network and wish to view it from the internet, browse and transfer files from your NAS (Networked Attached Storage), or Host your own website from your computer, or you want to host a game server for your friends to logon to.

BM622i

New BM622i modems being issued and released by Globe has new user passwords. To date, there is no known exploit to hack the admin user for this new set of modems that I am aware of. If your BM622 modem is not a patched firmware, unlocking its admin settings still works as I have posted here before. Now a new generation of modems such as BM622i has new passwords to begin with, the old user-user combo trick doesn't work anymore.

So have you ever wondered what's the password?

Why is it good to have a live linux iso, cd or usb drive

Linux Mint 8 Helena

My slowest computer running winxp, when it crashes. Using my ready-made linux distros live cd installer saved on a 2GB flash drive. I just boot up the pc, and run a live session to access files or perform a backup even if your windows system won't boot up. I have a backup windows ISO saved on my external drive.

Since when you use linux live cd, dvd, or usb drive. All devices works out of the box, even your cd burning optical drives. Looking at the image on the left, I am burning an installer from my backup ISO, because some of my installer is not with me at the moment. Also I managed to get some files out to completely perform a clean install on this machine.

It's been awhile since my last blogpost, been busy. This is for my friends asking How to configure a router to use with Globe Wimax.

How to Configure a router to use with your Globe Wimax BM622 CPE Modem by Huwaei Technologies?

There are two types of router, namely the wired and wireless. What I have here is an example of a wireless router.

Wired and Wireless router are the same in terms of usability except for the fact you don't need wires for wireless, and convenient to use with wireless devices and gadgets.

Firstly, connect the router to your PC lan ports, Plug the cables to the number 1 port, not on the distinguished WAN port. Fire up a browser and type in to URL address bar, where you type website addresses to browse pages, type in http://192.168.1.1, this is always a default.

Watermark Orientation

Wishlist Figma 014-Miku Hatsune

I posted an article about batch watermarking in linux here. A problem for me is locating the watermark on the images to my preferences, recently found out the correct syntax for the -gravity. Which is "center" for center, "north" for top and "southeast" for bottom right. So edited my script from tuxtweaks, and edit a new watermark that has yuki on it. here are more photos and images from last time with the new watermark.

On with the others photos.

Batch Watermark using Imagemagick Script

Here is a a sample of batch work I tested it with

Finally got some script thanks to tuxtweaks.com.  Using my same template, here are some of the photos and screens.

I tweaked the script to adjust to my preference, like changing the scale, watermark image folder location, removed the -gravity center to default it to the edge.

I am still waiting a reply on tuxtweak asking for help on some other options on how to place the watermark other than this locations.

Below are more pictures and images I tested with the script. If you guys on Ubuntu want to do the same,

Wine regedit tweak

Here is a wine registry tweak to boost FPS ( Framerate) when using World of Warcraft thru wine.

Type in "regedit" in the terminal console.

Then,

1. Find this key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine"
2. Highlight and select "wine" right click it, then select [NEW] then [KEY]
3. Rename the new [KEY] to "OpenGL" (this is case sensitive )
4. Select the new OpenGL [KEY] on the right pane, then right-click then create new string and name it "DisabledExtensions" (once again case sensitive) then modify the value name it, "GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object"

Should look like this.
