To get into the network you would have to be able to plug into the power sockets on the house, so secure enough. Unless they do work house to house. (hmmmm network gaming with a mate over the road )
You would need to be on the same phase as the other house and I recall some blurb about the electric meter having an attenuating effect on the signal. But I haven't tested this myself.

That probably means that any ignition key will open it
Sloppy manufacturing tolerances and the fact that the barrels use wafers (same rubbish as in filing cabinets) means security is not good. I did try my old ignition key and it didn't open any of the new barrels..... yet.... maybe once there is a bit of wear they will
Still at least all my barrels accept the same key now and don't require wiggling to make them work

Done - post this morning

Well, this work was done in South Africa where we don't have ample supplies of Time-serts, Big-serts etc. My engineer had to MAKE his own inserts from M16 high tensile threaded rod... This took many hours of work and cost me quite a bit in the end.
That explains the cost due to all the extra work, I imagine that method would have been very expensive over here.
-
The more recent versions are definitely encrypted and require a pairing operation when adding extra ones. I'm not sure about the early ones.

You can just buy a new ignition barrel with matching door barrels... can be bought with 1 or 3 door barrels....

That looks pretty neat How good is it after dark?

......
That block cost me GBP430 to have inserts installed to take the torque.
I never realised it would cost that much, I suppose as you had done other work to the block already it wouldn't have been cheaper to go for another block

I'll lend you a couple of mine if you like? Leave some wine and chocolates out for them and I'm sure they'll repopulate your Land Rover.... just look after them

Apparently the top 10 most stoled vehicles in the first quarter of this year were...
1) Ford Transit
2) Vauxhall Astra
3) Ford Fiesta
4) Volkswagen Golf
5) Vauxhall Corsa
6) BMW 3 Series
7) Ford Focus
8) Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
9) Ford Mondeo
10) Honda Civic
Not a Land Rover in site, however that's probably due to volume of sales more than anything, very hard to find meaningful stats

Well that kinda sticks two fingers up at the Defenders reputation for being unreliable. Shows that if you maintain them they won't let you down

You mean like the ones I quoted a page back?
.......
One of the "groups" I belong to has a member who managed to create a nice brown circle on the side of a evergreen tree by using a P-to-P connection on a massive power.
Yep, I was agreeing with you task

Don't forget if you make the router high power you will also need a higher power wireless card/adapter for the PC, no point transmitting high power from the base station if the pccan't transmit enough to get back.
Good antennas are really worth looking into, especially some external ones
-
Oh meant to say, the oldest BT Vision homeplug adapters had a recall notice on them as apparently if you repeatedly smash a vacuum cleaner into them with extreme prejudice the cover comes off. They are easily recognised as they don't have the mains socket on the surface to plug other things into. Personally I had no problem with them .... although I probably have a dirty floor
Also the early ones generate RF noise that annoys radio hams, later ones are much better.
-
I'd be tempted with the ethernet over power (homeplug) it's pretty cheap especially if you get used ones from ebay as BT send them out with BT Vision systems and most people don't use them so flog them on. It also requires the least work on your behalf, it is pretty much plug and play.
Obviously you would want to test them out first to make sure they work for you over your distance, but a colleague of mine has used them over longer distances.
-
I can't do that - I don't have Planning Permission
Would that be better described as SWMBO permission?
-
You can do internet over mains using a homeplug unit
So basically you are just plugging in two power adapters that have a mains plug socket on them and an ethernet socket. Pretty much act like a piece of ethernet cable to the user. Simple

As Zim has offered to replenish stock if it's needed would it be worth making this a sticky (forgive the pun) in the sell and support forum? Just a thought

Cheers for that Les and Ross
