Asegure su red sin hilos con Windows OneCare vivo 2.0
Hoy, bastantes casas tienen redes sin hilos a las cuales esté el unsecure - abierto de par en par para que cualquier persona conecte. Esto podría ser un problema enorme especialmente si las PC en ese hogar están compartiendo archivos importantes de la familia - como las fotos y los documentos que no debe ser visto por los extranjeros. En Windows OneCare vivo 2.0, una nueva característica está viniendo que dejará a usuarios de Windows que OneCare vivo asegura una red sin hilos del unsecure en su hogar. Decidía dar a esta nueva característica un intento y compartir mi experiencia.
Una vez que conectara con la red sin hilos del unsecure, lancé Windows OneCare vivo y fui alertado por Windows Live OneCare que estaba en una red sin hilos del unsecure y que puede ayudarme a asegurarla. Chasqué “excitamiento” y comencé el proceso. Aquí está una versión parcial de programa video de mí que pasa con el proceso de asegurar una red sin hilos del unsecure:
Vídeo: Versión parcial de programa: Seguridad de la radio de OneCare
Quisiera tomar algunos momentos para elaborar en algunas cosas del vídeo. Primero apagado: la rebajadora que probaba esto era *not* conectado con el Internet. La mayoría de los usuarios que utilizarán esta característica para asegurar su rebajadora la tendrán conectada con el Internet. Una vez pasando a través del mago asegurar la rebajadora con Windows OneCare vivo - el usuario y cualquier otra PC en la red casera deben poder tener acceso a la multa del Internet apenas. No habrá edición que asegura una rebajadora conectada con un WAN (WAN que es su ISP para el acceso del Internet).
Para asegurar su red sin hilos - le requieren conectar vía el cable (Cat-5) - que es porqué necesité un cable Cat-5 en mi vídeo proceder con el proceso de asegurar mi rebajadora. Esto es importante pues éste evita que cualquier persona conectar con su red wirelessly y use Windows OneCare vivo para limpiar sus ajustes sin hilos del establecimiento de una red con sus propios ajustes. Esto es lo que llama el equipo de OneCare “prueba el cheque de la propiedad”.
En asegurar su rebajadora - no limpia totalmente hacia fuera todos sus ajustes. Los ajustes que los cambios vivos de Windows OneCare durante el proceso que asegura son los SSID, el permitir de la seguridad de WEP, y el fijar de la llave de WEP. Después de que Windows OneCare vivo asegure su rebajadora, le dan instrucciones en cómo instalar otras PC en su red casera con los nuevos ajustes Windows OneCare vivo permitidas en su rebajadora.
This is looking to be a very useful and interesting feature for home users who are unfamiliar (and maybe uncomfortable) getting onto their router and configuring it for secure wireless capabilities.
There is a wiki setup over on Channel 9 with informaton on this feature of Windows Live OneCare 2.0 worth checking out as well.

Rolling out Windows Home Server with a HP MediaSmart Server
This weekend I completed the roll-out of my new HP MediaSmart Server running Windows Home Server. I ordered the HP MediaSmart Server EX470. I originally had Windows Home Server running on my Dell Dimension E520 but decommissioned it when I created my "Ultimate" PC. I really wanted to try out the experience the average consumer will have in purchasing a Windows Home Server and setting it up in their home. The HP MediaSmart Server seemed like the perfect choice in checking out the Windows Home Server experience.
The HP MediaSmart Server EX470 has the following specs:
- Processor - AMD 1.8GHz 64-bit Sempron
- Memory - 512MB DDR
- Interfaces - 4 USB 2.0 Ports, 1 eSATA Port
- Storage - 1 500GB SATA 7200 RPM
The EX470 model of the HP MediaSmart Server comes with a single 500GB harddrive, however the EX475 model comes with 1TB (two 500GB SATA harddrives). I don't need 1TB just yet so decided to go with the EX470. The EX470 comes with 3 expansion slots to add my own harddrives at a later date which is really nice.
Windows Home Server gives a great deal of added benefit to Windows Vista users. First and foremost, it allows you to make sure your PC is completely backed up and that all your PCs on your home network are backed up. With a Windows Home Server restore disc, you can easily restore a complete PC backup from your Windows Home Server via your home network. Windows Home Server also makes sure all your PCs are protected by as well - alerting you if a PC becomes unprotected our has out-of-date antivirus/spyware definitions. And Windows Home Server takes advantage of Media Sharing abilities built in to Windows Vista for photos, music and videos. I can move recorded TV shows onto my Windows Home Server where I can access them on any PC on my home network. Same goes for my photos.
There are 3 reasons why Windows Home Server is essential for my home network:
- A centralized place for data storage with quick access from any PC on my.
- Quick and easy remote access to PCs and data.
- Complete PC backups with full and quick restore capability.
I do a lot of traveling and when I'm away from my home office, I cannot begin to explain how amazing it is to be able to login to my Windows Home Server to access important data - or files I accidentally left behind. I can even use Remote Desktop to login to my PCs at home remotely.
In setting up the HP MediaSmart Server, I was curious how the experience would be in setting up a "headless" server from a consumer standpoint. There's no monitor connection on the HP MediaSmart Server - only way to access it is remotely. I was incredibly impressed on how easy it was.
Essentially, the HP MediaSmart Server comes with an install disc you use on any of your client PCs on your home network. The install disc will install some HP software for the server as well as launch a wizard that takes the user through a step-by-step process in setting up Windows Home Server. The wizard lets you setup a Windows Home Server Password, check for updates, name your Windows Home Server, and install the Windows Home Server Connector.
After the wizard completed, I had a fully functional and accessible Windows Home Server. Took me only a matter of a few minutes to set up. Very nice.
Coming up, I've got some more experiences to share with Windows Home Server and Windows Vista.
