i considered it. i just happened to have a large sheet of 5mm acrilyc (yeah, just sitting around ). i like it better - it's much heavier and adds to the weight of the chassis. it also looks much better that way - to me, that is. also, if i put the acrilyc on the inside, the unit would have 1) much smaller footprint, which would make it unstable if standing upright and 2) the window would've been embedded - the plastic the chassis is made of is pretty thick, and it would not look that good.Originally posted by FLECOM
very cool, i like it... would have been nicer if you had used some thinner plexi and put the window inside the box, but meh, thats just me ... btw that is a PCMCIA card, a lot of wifi routers do that...
why not? just mod the sucka in there! i've thought about that. i think it will work. i don't have an 802.11g laptop though, and won't for another year or two. by then it may be something else. but i'm pretty sure i can still stick a different PCB in there. so i might have to cut a few things, cover a few holes, maybe repaint it, etc... so what? - isn't that what life is all about?Originally posted by _Sin_
kinda makes you wonder if you cant just slap in an 802.11g card in there.
probably not though!
those are two 100-foot cables - do you know how much black cables would cost me?! yeah, i know, i could make those, but still. besides, they are there only temporarily.Originally posted by namuraz
The only thing you need to change are those vanilla CAT 5 cables coming out the back. Go invest in some black ones!! Or red, that would go well too!
there are still vents on top and the bottom. the thing barely gets warm - i measured its temperature last night (and it runs 24x7, needless to say). it was ~27/28C, with the hottest spot being 31C, in a room with 24C ambient.One question thou, you covered up all the vent holes, does the plexi glass have some airspace to make up for that? I couldn't tell from the pics.
sure thing! i may either have to charge you for it, or better yet - keep it to myself after i'm done... but if you want to pay me - sure thing - the sky is the limit. PM me if you are serious. hehehe...Originally posted by Optional87
if i send you my router will you mod it for me!

if it's not the pinkish-red but more like blood-red, sure, send 'em over!Originally posted by namuraz
Well, I could make you some in red, but if those are only temporary, then I guess I won't bother.
