			<title>Cisco Updates IOS, Fixes Three Major Vulnerabilities</title>
			<link>http://www.thetechlounge.com/news/11068/Cisco-Updates-IOS-Fixes-Three-Major-Vulnerabilities/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Cisco released three security advisories on Wednesday designed to fix multiple vulnerabilities in its core Internetwork Operating System Software (IOS).

Worst of the trio is a "Crafted IP Option" vulnerability that creates a potential means for hackers to load hostile code onto a range of Cisco routers and switches running IOS. Attacks would have worked by sending certain ICMP, PIMv2, PGM or URD packets with a specific IP option set to a Cisco device, thereby causing the hardware to either crash or load in such a way that arbitrary code is executed. The flaw applies to most of the code b...]]></description>

			<title>Netgear RangeMAX 240</title>

			<description><![CDATA[Wireless Internet is becoming more commonplace in all our lives. However, sometimes we need a high-speed connection for HD content, gaming, and other devices. Netgear's new RangeMax 240 router solves a lot of the problem, but not all of it. You'll find its high speeds are great and it does broadcast farther than any other router around. But with only a USB adaptor and a PC Card available to take advantage of this new technology, is it really worth it? Read on to find out more and decide if RangeMax is right for you.]]></description>

			<title>Linksys SPA-941 Business IP Phone</title>
			<link>http://www.thetechlounge.com/news/9842/Linksys-SPA941-Business-IP-Phone/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Sipura was one of the first manufacturers to make a name for themselves in the VoIP arena. Sipura's analog telephone adapters (ATA) helped put Sipura on the map. Sipura's first foray into an actual phone (the SPA-841) was met with a lukewarm reaction. Shortly after the 841 was released, Cisco-owned Linksys, who was already licensing much of Sipura's technology, took a big jump into the game by purchasing Sipura. With the rebranding of the Sipura products we have been waiting to see what would come out next. The time has finally come it was worth the wait.]]></description>

			<title>X-Micro WLAN 11g Combo Finder Adapter</title>
			<link>http://www.thetechlounge.com/news/9743/XMicro-WLAN-11g-Combo-Finder-Adapter/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[I've gotten past the whole reviewing video cards thing. At my age, I'm more about the coolness factor, the utility, or the handiness of a gadget. Which is why I rather enjoy the occasional package from the folks at X-Micro. They seem to share my love of tiny packages that pack a lot of use, coming up with products that maybe don't always have the wide mainstream appeal of the latest GPU but offer up a handy way of dealing with typical real world issues.

Now, fun is all relative, and I have to admit that yes, I'm pretty easy to amuse. So while some folks maybe don't see the point in drivi...]]></description>

			<title>Router vs Access Point</title>
			<link>http://www.thetechlounge.com/news/9728/Router-vs-Access-Point/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[While planning for your wireless network you might be asking what is the difference between a router and an access point. You need to think of a router as more of a server because it performs many functions like a server. An access point only provides a portal for wireless client to connect to your existing LAN.

Routers can perform many functions. Routers can connect many different WLANs together acting like a traffic cop. Routers also act as a DHCP server. A DHCP server assigns dynamic IP address to your computer every time your computer starts up. If you don't have a DHCP server then y...]]></description>

			<title>Wi-Fi Hotspot Security Tips</title>

			<description><![CDATA[You've set up your Boingo account, you're hanging out at the Home Turf sports bar in LAX and you figure you'll do a little business or check your e-mail while sipping a Chardonnay. Well, that's the point of Wi-Fi hotspots; being able to take care of a few things while in a relaxing atmosphere.

Don't, however, get so relaxed that you ignore security and give all your confidential information to some unscrupulous hacker. Yeah, you see the guy. He's over in the corner wearing that fake nose and glasses with the ridiculous Bozo the Clown cap. Yep, drinking a Blatz. Dead give away.

			<description><![CDATA[Hey, another cool product from X-Micro, and I really mean it, this is a cool little device. When I first heard I was getting it for review, I didn't pay attention and I thought it was just a WiFi finder, but it is actually a WiFi 802.11g USB adapter as well. My router died recently, and I had to get a new one, so I opted to get one with 802.11g built in so I could use my laptop without hooking an Ethernet cable to it. My other computers I use for reviews etc all need to have Ethernet cables run to them to be on my network, but now I can just plug the X-Micro into any computer and instant wi...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[WiMax (802.16e) is is a newer standard of wireless networking designed to provide the last mile of high speed internet access to the end user. Some people would call Wimax WiFi on steroids but this would be to broad of an assessment. Wifi was and still will be used in LAN environments for the foreseeable future. WiMax was designed to provide (MAN) Metropolitan Area Access, to homes and businesses.

WiMax base stations will have the ability to provide approximately 60 businesses with T1 access and hundreds of homes with DSL/Cable speed access!in theory. Engineers are stating that WiMax has...]]></description>
