Synopsis
In this episode Wess mods the Linksys WRT54G wireless router and adds Power-over-Ethernet functionality. Darren checks out Anywhere.FM which pretty much lives up to its name. And our pal Mubix joins us via Skype for a paranoia inducing look at anonymous enumeration tools online. Plus this month’s Trivia, LAN Party, and of course, the saga continues.
Anywhere.fm
Anywhere.fm looks like iTunes and lets you even know what kind of music might be 'good' for you. You can even upload your own music and listen to it from anywhere you'd have internet. iTunes uploader helper will help use your iTunes library to choose from for upload. It's in beta, in the future there will be some support for WMP and Winamp. Sofar it has unlimited storage.
Power over ethernet using a Linksys WRT54G.
Project details:
Wiring the existing wolword(?), the DC power inverter (that comes with the router) into the network cable. Inside the router, the network cable pins will be 'rerouted' to the DC plug on the back (all inside the router).
Because an ethernetcable uses only for of the total of 8 wires, the amount of pins used for redirection are the remaining ones (the traces on the board can verify this too). To be exact pins 3, 4, 7, 8.
List of materials
-Soldering Iron
-Wires (black&red colours)
-Solder
-Wirestrippers
-Linksys Router
-UTP Network cable
-Boxcutter (or any sharp cutting utensil, be careful though)
-Screwdriver
Plan of action:
- Pull the rubbery back of the router away
- Locate the tiny pins connecting the WAN, (4x) LAN outputs and finally three pins for the DC on the bottomside
- Use a red wire and cut it for a breath length and strip the tip off
- Solder the red wire to pins 3 and 4
- Use a black wire and cut it too
- Solder the black wire on pins 7 and 8;
- Now solder the red wire to the positive DC (the most far right of the three)
- Finally solder the black wire to the negative DC (the bottom pin)
- Cut the protection of the ethernet cable
- The two brown wires and the blue wires should then be cut and stripped (twist then together in pairs)
- Cut the adapter (the solid black wire is negative, the dashed positive)
- Now connect the two 'brownies' to the the solid black wire, the blue wire to the dashed wire (don't forget to solder)
- Finish it all off by protecting the exposed wire and enclose it all in the router (except the ethernet cable)
Warning, the cable is now unidirectional, meaning only in one direction. One end for a computer and one of the router.
