Archive for April, 2009Lately, I have not been able to get the wireless router to work - I need to be able to use my Eee laptop to watch GoogleTalk videos for things like Django and jQuery talks, among others, on the couch, ( or when there’s actually Sun out here in WA, on the patio ). So I needed a smooth way of getting videos onto my laptop, by downloading them from my desktop since I can longer connect to the Internet on the Eee. Note: Even if you have a wireless connection - and thus you can just connect directly through your laptop and play them right there - there’s still the obvious advantage of playing files that are already downloaded and completely local: Minimal or no skipping frames
What I needed: ( let’s talk Use Case, informally speaking) ( if this looks tedious to read - it probably is - then just go straight to the yellow box below, those are the actual steps to set this up for you on your Windows desktop) |
