Subject: RE: Tech: Computer Virus?
And people wonder why an ex-techie/hacker like me declines most of those fancy gadgets for the simplest solution - wires cause fewer problems than wireless :-) - I refuse to use wireless mice, LANs, etc if one can plug in a wire somewhere.... :-) I've had lots of hassles fixed by KISS troubleshooting.

I once bought some Swann wireless security cameras. They had 2 switchable channels. I bought two packs of single camera & screen, one for each end of the house. Well.... each screen would only receive the camera physically nearest it, and ON BOTH CHANNELS at the same time, no matter what switch settings were used anywhere! :-0

Refund ! :-)

I now have wired cameras only... :-p
