[13:48:39] <steerpike> lol
[13:48:54] <steerpike> well use the sources provided on wikipedia
[13:49:00] <rkdavis> and only one book in the house as he returned the others he took out at the beginning of term back to the library -- damn i am a good bs artist
[13:49:15] <rkdavis> 6 pages of well written gramitically correct crap so far
[13:49:17] <steerpike> ^_^
[13:49:21] <steerpike> tsk
[13:49:51] <rkdavis> and this professor is a pain in the butt any more than 2 words in a row that appear in her plagurism system is considered plagurism
[13:52:13] <steerpike> oh, you have to submit it through that stupid website?
[13:52:23] <rkdavis> and if you forget a period on a APA citation she says not cited correctly and thus plagurism
[13:52:26] <steerpike> turnitin.com or something
[13:52:27] <rkdavis> nope she submits it
[13:52:29] <steerpike> oh
[13:52:33] <rkdavis> we are not allowed to know where she submits it
[13:52:47] <rkdavis> but good thinking batman after we finish i'll submit it and see if i get any hits
[13:53:06] <steerpike> my friend got in trouble for plagiarism just for a quote
[13:53:13] <steerpike> ^_^
[13:53:37] <rkdavis> but cool gadget the z2 -- but unstable wifi wise and can't seem to get the im accounts particularly text to stay enabled but looks like it'll be nice asa terminal
[13:53:55] <steerpike> oh, you're using the default o/s
[13:54:00] <rkdavis> i was struglling with it to create accounts and wifi (it keeps taking my neighbours open ap rather than my wep one
[13:54:06] <rkdavis> yes until i get the sd card
[13:54:08] <steerpike> that's going to expire in 2 weeks
[13:54:25] <rkdavis> i got a 411 message saying i got free account for im and txt -- look on the website
[13:54:29] <steerpike> unless you paid for the $120 unit lol
[13:54:32] <rkdavis> thats part of the reason i got the second
[13:54:42] <rkdavis> says limited time only no sub required :)
[13:56:25] <rkdavis> http://zipitwireless.com/default.aspx?skinid=1
[13:56:31] <rkdavis> unless i read that wrong
[13:56:44] <rkdavis> get it from zipit and no sub :) although i may have read it wrong
[13:57:04] <rkdavis> so one to use as linux system and to destroy one to use as a linux system and not to destroy
[13:57:12] <steerpike> for a year
[13:57:23] <rkdavis> yup
[13:57:31] <steerpike> cool
[13:57:34] <rkdavis> but i don't text anyway but handy to have until i get bored with it
[13:58:03] <steerpike> anyway, you can manually set the AP priority once you get your sd
[13:58:10] <rkdavis> yup
[13:58:16] <rkdavis> might take the one from the camera to play with tomorrow
[13:58:41] <rkdavis> although have to go with the kid christmas shopping tomorrow after he drops off his paper so might see what's around in manhattan
[13:58:52] <steerpike> cool
[13:58:57] <rkdavis> all our family want stuff with his college logo on it so lots of cheap knick knacks
[13:59:19] <rkdavis> one wants a letter openeer and everyone else is getting shot glasses and sweaters or tee shirts
[13:59:34] <rkdavis> and for the riffraff he'll give them keyrings
[13:59:44] <steerpike> btw, i got my wrtp54g to register with sipphone.com ..won't register with magicjack because magicjack's auth names are alphanumeric :\
[14:02:42] <steerpike> same deal with pap2v2 i guess.. might be able to fix pap2v2 though by doing a firmware upgrade
[14:03:20] <steerpike> and cablevision is disconnecting my service today :(
[14:03:27] <rkdavis> yup it's always best to have the most recent stable firmware before faffing about with stuff
[14:03:37] <rkdavis> :(
[14:03:47] <rkdavis> so still got internet access lined up
[14:03:54] <rkdavis> even if it's only leeching from neighbour?
[14:03:59] <steerpike> but the problem with firmware upgrade is that you can only get an update from the service provider the unit is locked to
[14:04:12] <steerpike> yeah, i already have my verizon dsl activated
[14:04:27] <rkdavis> what firmware in the pap?
[14:07:48] <rkdavis> have you looked on voip-info.org/wiki? they have the unlock codes there might have the firmware or a link to it somewhere
[14:08:32] <rkdavis> http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_Download_C2&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1115417109974&packedargs=sku%3D1117044308483&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper
[14:08:41] <rkdavis> that is probably the stock version
[14:08:48] <rkdavis> it's 3.1.22-ls
[14:08:55] <rkdavis> ok back to the grindstone back in a bit
[14:08:58] <steerpike> it's a pap2v2
[14:09:06] <steerpike> different hardware from pap2
[14:11:52] <rkdavis> ok i see it's basically the same fw & hw as the sipura i'll do some digging in a few
[14:12:43] <steerpike> thanks :)
