Windows Vista - Wireless Router - Cable Broadband - Internet Access - Hathway Chennai.

I could not think of a better title.. coz it is as complex as the process of enabling a network connection in windows vista to access wireless networks.

Things we had Laptop : DELL Inspiron with DELL Wireless Adapter, with Windows Vista Home. Wireless Router : DLink Airplus G, model number : DI-545 (4 port switch + wireless router). CableModem : WebStar Cable Modem (ISP : Hathway, Chennai). What you should do to access Internet? We did a lot of trial and error method to enable access. All we did end up in doing was The connection from Laptop to Wireless Router was enabled. But from Wireless Router to Internet was not enabled. So what's the solution? Well, its damn simple. You need to mirror the IP/DNS number from the cable modem, to your Wireless Router. Type 192.168.0.1 in your web browser. Type the admin user name (usually 'ad...

My Automobile Design - Bus One of my old ambition is to own a fleet of passenger buses. It was my wish to design all the body style by myself. 2 days back, I got a triggering feel... and so, here is one new-age bus design... named as "Diamondus". Competes with Dilip Chabbria's design? huh? ;-) Yeah it is! - Rajesh Sundaram

Just a quick design for a online file explorer. Very similar to Windows Explorer interaction, but a different web-2.0ish look and feel. The feature-set for this explorer user interface is still under discussion. Below is the first cut idea... click to view in a sepearte window. - Rajesh Sundaram

OSCON 2007 - Banners for vtiger CRM banners There were problems related to colors and DPI with the previous banners. So the job was handled by me then. I just finished the vtiger CRM - OSCON 2007 banners in CorelDraw and sent to the printer. Hopefully they should get the banners printed without the previous issues. Here are the image samples. I have asked Gopal to put these, in vtiger blog also.

AMD Mobile - Optimus 3G AMD into mobile phones? naeh! Purely my own imagination. What if AMD comes up with some iPhone coolness, Vertu's quality and Nokia's ease-of-use mobile phone? Well... here is OPTIMUS 3G from AMD Mobile Devices. - Rajesh Sundaram

Zoho Explorer

This is a nifty web based front-end which is a file browser for all your zoho services. With this tool, you can create / view / edit all documents stored in zoho services. This is now integrated into facebook too. Interestingly, after designing the UI, I felt the current design is not that fit for the purpose. A simple explorer like interface would cater the purpose. :-) - Rajesh Sundaram

Eye Candy - User Experience

Too much eye-candy in the User Interface? sometimes that may become a little overdose. Today I received a feedback saying the UI has more eye-candy effect. The problem is: all other products's UI in Z oho are plain and white'y, whereas Z oho PC has more colors. I guess this is another way of saying "change the colors.. IOW, make the product look like other Z oho products". Sukss!
