Background
Recall in Part 1 that I mentioned
Zedicus Zoule Zurander (ZZZ), the 1
st
Wizard, in Terry Goodkind’s novel, “The
Wizard’s First Rule,” stated, “Nothing
is ever easy! If it is, you’re probably not
doing it right!” I also empathize “very
closely” with this quote of Paul Trout
responding to his wife Gammay (in Clive
Custler’s new NUMA novel, The Navi-
gator, p. 353), “If we liked doing things
the easy way, we wouldn’t be working
for NUMA.” Well, all you have to do is
simply substitute “. . . writing reviews.
. . .” for “. . . working for NUMA. . . .”
and you’ve got the “True Picture for
Yours Truly!”
Just FYI (and edification), I do
not want you to ever think that I am
complaining about “doing reviews.” No,
no, no! Au contraire, mon ami! I am just
afflicted with personal computers
that have a mind of their own, that’s all!
Its a fait accompli that ever since I got
involved in computers over 20+ years
ago, nothing, repeat nothing, has
ever worked for me the first time I
tried it; it just seems to be my cross
to bear, that’s all!
Shock and Awe With a Capital
“Family Fun!”
And like always, once again, every-
thing fell neatly into place, and became
equally as obvious, when all was said
and done. Here it is in a nutshell for you
again: “It really works!” “It’s incredible!”
“It’s fun for all!” It’s beautiful, easy to use
and works like a charm!” Well, there you
have it, that’s My D-Link DVC-1100
(DVC-1100) i2eye Broadband Desk-
top VideoPhone - The “Wireless”
Video Conferencing Device review:
“Bam! Bam! It works exactly as
advertised, and it’s a ‘Kick’!”
P.S. And, as usual for me, I
learned a great deal about network-
ing, and in hindsight, it really was
easy, and followed along exactly as the
manual said it would. What a Hoot!
But, more on this Part in a little
bit, that is, if you are of a mind to
know more of the details?
Introduction to The “Wireless”
DVC-1100
The following is a D-Link media
extract of some of the benefits of the
DVC-1100 Wireless Broadband
VideoPhone:
“The DVC-1100 introduces the
world of videoconferencing over the
Internet, to bring you, your family,
friends, and colleagues together. By
using Enhanced 802.11b, you can place
the DVC-1100 next to the family televi-
sion without running network cables for
your broadband connection around the
house. Since the DVC-1100 VideoPhone
is a standalone device, no computer is
needed when you videoconference over
the Internet.
“An easy-to-use Setup Wizard
guides you step-by-step through the
setup of the DVC-1100 VideoPhone. It
can be up and working in minutes. With
the DVC-1100, it is easy to make changes
to personalize your videoconferencing
display.
“The once complicated process of
conducting a videoconference is now
simplified with the DVC-1100. Connect
