My landlord. I recently gave him a new router, here are the results:
computer SMC1 linksys Belkin SMC2
=============================================
A | yes no no
?
B | no yes
?
C | yes no
?
A=landlord (wired)
B=me (802.11b)
C=neighbor (802.11b)
It's not just a technical problem, but political. The landlord
couldn't get either the linksys router nor the belkin router (both
brand new) to work from a *wired* connection for him. Tellingly, I was
able to connect with the linksys router wirelessly.
The landlord is a mechanical engineer, and I asked him to try the
linksys router as an experiment (instead of lugging my desktop to
another network). The landlord is the system admin in this scenario,
of course.
The most interesting to me is the first row, that the landlord can't
get the internet from either the linksys or belkin router. I'm
considering trying a brand new SMC router, but expect that column to be
all "no's".
I'm posting this from google, and can only hope that my chart looks
good.
