I was planning to play with responsive tables sometime soon; maybe admin will let me contribute a patch
EDIT: oh wait, you mean the mobile app? Somebody will have to get vBulletin to upgrade their support for that, I'm afraid. Rather sloppy of them to provide support for tables in the editor toolbar and the BBCode parser, then fail to support them in the app. They're undocumented in the BBCode help page, tooLast edited by NickFitz; 12 March 2019, 01:28.

(I remember doing improper fractions as school, so there must be tables of them somewhere)

3. Why do you need to connect to that particular wifi, rather than using other communications methods?
4. What's your budget?
The solution may be to set up a nanostation. Take a look at Ubiquiti Airmax AC products.

Originally posted by Zigenare View PostThe 5GHz spectrum in the UK runs from 5150MHz (5.15GHz) to 5850MHz (5.85GHz). This is then broken down into 3 different bands (Band A, B and C).

This info is contained in the table below
Band Low High Indoor/Outdoor Max Power Level License Requirements
A 5150MHz 5350MHz Indoor 200mW License Free

Cantenna and a sky dish both ends, that's the way to go.
It's better if the can hasn't got ripples in the wall.
As you say, it is really really inneresting.
Of course you could go for a 2.4GHz yagi, or a 2.4GHz disc yagi.
That'd be inneresting too.
Have you tried bleeding the radiators yet?Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; 8 March 2019, 12:19.
