If you suffer from reception issues on your WiFi connection and would like a boost to your router/access point, you should try out this easy tutorial I read online. It’s free and really simple on following up. All you need is some aluminium foil, card board, glue for sticking stuff and a scissor/blade for some cutting.

It’s so easy (and cheap) to build, it would be silly not to try it out before considering actually paying for a booster on your WiFi router.

I suggest you go check out the Ez-10 Corner Reflector. I found it thanks to this video on YouTube :)

I don’t really need it but considering the minimal effort required, I will try it out and see how useful it is. If you do so, drop in a word ;)

If you said yes to (most) of the above questions, having a Home Server could help you :) It can handle not only centralized storage of media and documents but also backups. Have you ever needed a file from computer x in your house and found it was shut down after being used by a family member? Well, you wouldn’t have this issue if you had a central server. People could go around switching off their machines all they want as long as you have the file you want on your Storage Server.

Lets get into it then. From now, I’ll walk you through how to make your old machine into a Network Attached Server (NAS).
