Q:I just recently bought a router that was recommended to me, Linksys WRT160N V3. I followed all the steps to connect and it works. the problem is (and i measured) i walked 34 3/16 feet away into my room and boom. no connection, and my laptop, nor my ps3 can find the router. the only thing in the way of my router and my equipment is 2 walls and a bathroom (yes a small apartment). did i buy a crappy router or is there a way to increase the range for this particular model, because i feel like i got ripped off. thanks for the help.Also i was thinking of maybe getting netgear instead, everyone else seems to think it's good i just don't have the cash. thanks for the help.

Drill a big hole on your wall. Get a metal/magnet detector. Scan it on your wall and next to your router. There might be some kind of object inside the wall interfering with your router.

Q:I have a good friend that is EE and he says that it is a true aircraft electrician job, he states that integrated avionics is more of a pick n pull LRU job and anytime a wire harness, connector, or repair needs to be dealt with the EE guys come out. I am trying to decide on an AFSC, I want to do troubleshooting, flight line repairs, and by repairs I mean thought intensive repairsnot just pull and replace the box lol. I can't get a good description from the recruiter and obviously my friend is biased. Whats your input?? Thanks in advance!

Electrical works on generators, light bulbs and such, Avionics is an electronics technician. You would work on communications, navigation, control systems for armament and such. If you are in an operating squadron you will pull black boxes. Fixing them is at a different level. If you want excellent electronics training and a chance to repair the black boxes on a repair bench, go Navy or Marines. They repair equipment to a higher level.

Q:EMP Electromagnetic Pulse

The EMP has the capacity to damage electrical equipment regardless of the source powering the electrical equipment, especially now that power generation devices depend heavily on sensitive microelectronics.

Q:I need to make some electrical schematics up for some older equipment. What programs are available other than AutoCAD? Not wanting to spend the $$$ for AutoCAD at this time and I'd prefer not to use paper and pencil.Thanks.

I use Autocad because it's all I have (licenced). It really sux at creating electrical schematics. Better is Orcad. Also, check out Electronics Work Bench they have a great Schematics Capture program. Yes, look for schematic capture programs I don't know why they call them capture programs. Visio has some cool libraries! As someone mentioned, Spice! Next question, where are you going to show or use these schematics? Are you going to send them to anyone? if so, you might want to go for a common drawing program. GL.

Q:I need definitions of ship EquipmentMain switchboard:Distribution bus bars:Ship service generators:Main Engines:Prime mover:propulsion generators:propulsion motors:

relies upon on the country. worldwide waters: specific they are able to, regardless. maximum first-worldwide international locations require licensing of a few style, yet 0.33 worldwide international locations in many circumstances do not.

Q:i dont understand this, every surge protector claims to protect phone lines from surges but why?

The surge protection works via combating the skill surges which could take place whilst a line is hit via lightning, or whilst skill unexpectedly is going off. In a worse case project you're able to desire to burn out ALL electric powered home equipment that are linked, and in spite of small surges your computer could desire to be broken. relatively a solid concept to have the computer secure, regardless of in case you haven't any longer something secure.

Q:1. what is electrical and wiring system?2. what are the factors to be considered in designing an electrical wiring system in buildings?3. what are the possible ways of saving energy when designing an electrical and wiring system in buildings?i just need the experts opinion about this.thanks!

A building electrical system includes all of the equipment and wiring designed by the electrical engineer. This begins at the utility power connection and includes the service entrance equipment (meter base, current transformer cabinet and main disconnect switch), a main distribution panel (main breaker panel or main switchboard), and branch circuit distribution panels. The electrical system includes all wiring from the connection to utility power to connections to all electrical utilization of equipment. The electrical system also includes building lighting and lighting controls, building premise wiring for computers, computer hub room equipment, security systems, public address/broadcast system, keyless entry system, fire alarm system, and standby and emergency power systems. The main factors to consider is square footage of building, type of occupancy, number of occupants, and applicable local codes, the number of floors in the building, location of exits and stairwells. These considerations are used especially in determining what voltage with which to serve the building and size (ampacity) of service entrance and main distribution panel. These statistics are also important in the design of the fire alarm system. The main ways to save energy is through use of occupancy sensors and daylighting controls for lighting (the latter assumes windows or skylights for introducing daylight). These controls will keep the lights off unless specific areas are occupied, and lighting along with HVAC are the largest electrical loads. Energy costs (both electricity and heating fuel) can often be significantly reduced by incorporating CO2 sensors and variable frequency drives to control air handlers (large fans) rather then running them continuously at a rate to support maximum building occupancy, as is the case in many buildings.

Q:I bought some electrical equipment at a cheap price but it was due to a discount error.I placed the order and recieved the confirmation.Can they refuse to send my the products or change the price?Your help is much appriciated.

No, they do not have to send it. If it isn't Wal-Mart, with some low price guarantee, the retailer is not going to stick by a mistake in price. And they shouldn't have to. I mean, it's not like they were trying to cheat you by saying it was a lower price and then jacking it up. There was an honest mistake and shame on you if you try to hold them to it. Where I work (a touring company) a new girl accidentally gave a client the wrong price. It was so low, we would have lost money. Of course, I e-mailed the client to explain the problem and gave them the correct price. They blew up at me, and thought I was trying to cheat them. They thought we should stick to the low price, even though it was a mistake. Well, we then canceled their order-we can't lose money on touring someone around. We wouldn't stay in business. Edit: So, it actually sounds like you ARE trying to take advantage of this situation. They haven't notified you of the problem-you already knew it. You sound like you don't have much in the way of ethics. No, if you receive the items, they will not demand that you return them. You will just earn a lot of bad karma. What you are doing is unethical and (in some places) illegal.

Q:I know that it would destroy active electrical equipment but if the device had no electricity going through it at the time could it be affected?

Q:I need the data for our researchif possible the producer price index for electrical equipments like transformers.

sry my friend! have you looked it up through online?
