It’s Christmas time, we want to update our Dual Band Router system to Mesh Wifi system. Our house is 2-story and 2300 sf. The current system does have some bad spots on the ground floor, and if we get the Mesh wifi, it should fix the problem. When we talk about routers, the features are […]
Every year we went to Cancun and every year we have to get a new waterproof camera, we’ve been using Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS30, Fujifilm XP60 and they both failed miserably regardless on how we followed their instructions and cared for the cameras.

2015-12-26 Updated to the new firmware version v04.04.01-112, everything works very well. ***If the device comes with V3, make sure not to enable auto firmware update, V4 is very buggy – It doesn’t save and re-activate the change in sharing permission – it causes the wifi accessing randomly lost, the dashboard functions don’t do well.*** […]

I’ve created this blog to document what we (family) have encountered or used with all the technologies from home or work. We have ads to help paying for the cost of web hosting and computers, it’s just me when I have time to do it. The ads seldom pay for all costs but I don’t like to ask for donation. “Likes” and “Shares” will be greatly appreciated.
