    Cat 5 Daisy chain

    For my 1p's worth 1) Never daisy chain CAT 5/6 it was never designed to work this way, always hub > point 2) Always wire to the accepted convention e.g. 568B, think of the poor ****** who follows later to sort things out 3) Although you can use the splitters I don't see it as the solution...

    good for me.?

    +1 if you play PC games then as the detail increases you need more oommph under the bonnet, also true if you were into photo or video editing, but for email, word, excel and typical home use a 5 year old PC will likely do the job, mind you at that price why not, Scan.co.uk have a similar offer...

    How Much Do You Spend On Your Website?

    SEO I often get the odd SPAM from these people explaining how they can improve web traffic etc etc, the first thing I do is try their company name on google, for some strange reason they don't seem to get a result on the top 20 pages (usually get bored at that point), so surprisingly I add them...

    New TV - Plasma LED or LCD

Trouble is when you have a few devices it can get a bit confused, on the...

    New TV - Plasma LED or LCD
