I got another Xantrex PowerSource 400

That brings the number of units in my condo to 3. :cool:

I go this one to replace the UPS (a CyberPowerSystems 1500AVR-HO) that was backing up 'lhaven' and the 8 port switch.

After getting it set up, I moved my wireless access point (Belkin F5D7130) over to this. It had gotten left behind when I moved my DSL modem and router. So it was in a place that didn't really make sense anymore. Though originally it wasn't my wireless access point, it was one of a pair for NDS bridging. But, now that I strung a cable to the remote point...I did it to solve the apparent heavy shielding of the walls in the condo.

If I do a WiFi scan around this computer, I can only hear like 4 other APs. Move to the other end of the condo...and there are dozens of APs.

The UPS plan calls for at least one more UPS....still leaning towards another SmartUPS for that one...though who knows, might go with another PowerSource 400.... :hmm:

Though now that I think of it...I was going to move the Wireless Access Point into the closet with the DSL modem and router (and VoIP and Cordless phone base). The closet is where my first PowerSource 400 resides. To make this happen though it calls for adding a switch to this closet, which I plan to try...to see if I can run GigE around the condo.

And, that switch should be among the other boxes for Amazon.com that arrived today. :D

Now instead of subjecting some poor random forum to a long rambling thought, I will try to consolidate those things into this blog where they can be more easily ignored profess to be collected thoughts from my mind.
