The BEST File recovery tool

ThC 129

Im not here to promote any software over another, but i would just like to say that File Scavenger is the best deleted partition/file recovery tool out there. I say so because when i put in a 120gb drive to replace my defunct 60gb drive i accidentally overwrote one of my partitions.

Wireless disconnects

jazzdrive

I have set up a DLINK DWL-G700 Access Point to use WPA, so it connects to my Win2003 server acting as a RADIUS. Everything works fine. I authenticate and can connect and use the network. However, after 2 to 5 minutes, it disconnects and reauthenticates again.
