this is why I suggest always taping the passkey to the router and the wifi to the bottom of the router. You might try resetting the router to default and go through the configuration again, have you tried first unplugging the router from the power and let it set a few minutes then plugging it back in? that is always the first thing to try. I would shut down the pc, unplug the modem and router, wait a while, plug in modem let it get fully established, plug in router let it get fully established, then boot pc an see if it seems to hold better.

thanks all for the input. That pretty much answers one of my concerns...that is that it will be hard to navigate to download a bunch of books from sites other than Amazon. Like i said earlier we have never paid for a book in the 2 years we've had the Kindle, I never go through Amazon for any books. My main source of free books right now is "PROJECT GUTENBERG" and my concern was if I could connect right to their web site and do downloads directly on the Kindle wifi, or if it would be too cumbersome and time consuming. From what i"m reading it will be too time consuming and would be easier to continue what I was doing, that is download free books from GUTENBERG onto my computer then transfer the books to the Kindle.

I'm trying to figure out how to reply to each response but I'm just not seeing it so. Thanks Steve for the formula. jreagan this is a bare bones AC transformer that needs an enclosure and maybe a ground somewhere. That brings me to the power cord that has 3 wires. I was hoping for a simpler solution like a RadioShack device with built in plastic case. dennisgli this link shows something like what I have.

I am using Parrot Flower Powers extensively and find them very helpful. It's a good way to gain a better understanding of light, moisture, and soil. This kind of thing isn't for everyone... as I see from the comments above. Many commercial growers are using tools like these to increase their yields. Concepts such as 'watering the day before your plant needs it' becomes trivial along with the knowledge to maximize your growth. Of course, it still takes quite a bit of effort and learning to get the most out of it (like most things). My focus is more on the measurements rather than automatic recommendations from a tool. Most important is understanding what exactly is being measured and how. For example, I really don't find the nutrient/EC measurements useful because I prefer to have levels at the very bottom of the sensor's measurement range. For that I use a separate EC meter. Here are just a few of my graphs over the past year, since I am running multiple sensors. Temperatures over the past year including a cold spell outside in May: For light, I have been measuring in different places with this sensor throughout the year. Measurements are in PAR DLI: For watering, the cycles change throughout the year according to temperature. Early this year I arranged to have a good friend water my plants just enough to sustain them (it took her several hours each time as I have over two hundred plants with different needs). Overall, I think tools like these are fantastic and getting the data and trends are incredibly useful. I wish they were much cheaper and readily available, but right now it's a step in the right direction. Commercial measurement tools cost hundreds of dollars and close to a thousand if you include multiple sensors and logging capabilities.
