Opimtize your internet connection

PC World has a great guide to tweaking the more advanced settings of your router for optimizing your router for VoIP and video, though the same rules can apply for any bandwidth-heavy activity like file sharing or video games. PC World also mentions a few settings we haven't touched on before, like using a DMZ, splitting your traffic between two wireless networks, wireless multimedia extensions, and wireless intelligent stream handling.
All these settings basically help perform the same task and allocate more of your bandwidth to one important activity whenever they're going on, so all the other things you're doing don't suck it up and leave you with poor quality video chats. They also discuss where to find these settings on six of today's most popular routers, so even if you haven't delved into your router's settings too often, it should be easy enough to follow along. Hit the link to check out the guide.

Netwars Competition

The NetWars game is a collection of computer and network security challenges. It is designed to represent real-world security issues: their flaws and their resolutions. Each player can follow an independent path based on individual problem solving skills, technical skills, aptitude, and creativity. The game is played in a fun but safe environment using the technology that drives our lives every day. The game starts when a player downloads and starts a CD-ROM image on a PC or in a virtual environment such as VMware Player. The image contains a brief tutorial and the game's full instructions. The player must find a hidden key within the image that is downloaded and then uses that key to enter an online environment where knowledge of security vulnerabilities and their exploits can be turned into points. Upcoming Competitions   June 18-20, 2010 PST September 17-19, 2010 November 5-7, 2010 December 17-19, 2010 April 29 - May 1, 2011 Click Here to read more
