I’ve just added a “USB Storage” option to the Find-A-Router tool. This will allow searches for routers that have a USB port that can be used to connect a USB Hard Drive or flash drive etc. At this stage there’s not too many products with that feature but it seems to be gaining popularity. I certainly get plenty of enquiries for products with that capability anyway.
I’m also considering adding IPTV but I think by the time I get to that one it will be a fairly standard feature across the board anyway. 
Another one could be IPv6 but because Internode is the only ISP offering it at this stage, the router manufacturers aren’t in a big rush to add it. The only routers I know supporting it so far are higher end products like McAfee, Cisco (not the cheap stuff so far), Nortel etc.
Any other suggestions are welcome.

Purchase any D-Link product(s) over the value of $150.00 from any participating Australian or NZ Retailer on the same invoice between
1st February 2010 to 31st July 2010. Complete and submit the form online
here. There is nothing to mail in.
Each month D-Link will select 2 lucky entries (1 in Australia and 1 in NZ) based on your answer to the question “Why do you think your home needs a digital makeover”
Prizes would include LCD Digital TV, Home Theatre Surround Speakers, Notebooks, Media Streamers, Wireless Routers, IP Cameras and much more. ALSO someone from D-Link will come out and get your network running ALL FOR FREE….

Ever been unable to delete or rename a file because another program is apparently using it but haven’t been able to work out which program it might be or how to get it to let go of the file?
WhoLockMe is a handy little freeware application that will do both. After istallation just right-click on the file in question in Windows Explorer and select “WhoLockMe” to find the culprit application and end its process.

Netgear have a new website up with replacement power supplies, rack kits, disk trays and even screws available to order online at http://accessories.buynetgear.com.au/do/index. (Also linked from the Aussie support section on the Netgear website).
Handy to keep in mind if you ever blow a power pack or need a replacement part for your Netgear product.
