WIRED NETWORKING BASICS More than Five years ago, during the summer of 2003 I applied for On-the-Job Training for 1.5 months in a Communications Company. Luckily, they let me study and experienced what's life as a Data Communication Engineer. That time, I really wanted to explore Communications Engineering and learn more about Microwave, Satellite, ISDN and Fiber Optics. Although I already know How to create a Network in Windows and some background on Microwave designs but there are many questions in my mind. How DSL Works in the real world? What are the devices needed? How can you connect to other computers in Public IP settings like in P2P? What is DSLAM? I have so many questions... Most of the small Internet Cafe that time doesn't use a router to connect to the Internet because it is still expensive (but getting cheaper day by day)...

I know this is an old tip for DOS Geeks. For new ones, Did you ever wonder why when you type "notepad" in any directory in Command prompt or cmd, Notepad Application will launch immediately?   That's because of the default settings in executables path automatic search. To display type Path in command prompt and you'll see the default: PATH=C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem These are the default Folders in which when you type any command and Enter key it will search in those directories first.

"Do you want to open this file, Are you sure? (Really?)" This is the simplest example and explanation of the new security model in Windows Vista called UAC. This feature is still included in Windows 7 in which even the Administrator will operate in a reduced privilege login and all you have to do is to confirm.

If there's a duplicate, Generate a New Number again, until there's a unique value, save it and proceed to the next until it is finished. Simple Right? :)   Generating a Value Between two Number...
