    SLING BOX

    Yup, is a pretty cool contraption. Just have to make sure your internet at home is broadband to send out the signal. Also have to make sure the computer your using to view it has a pretty quick signal. Now people with verizon cards have to lookout because you have a limit to the amount you can...

    Passwords

    Best thing to do is not to use words. Most hack programs take words out of the dictionary and put it in as a password. So if you add something add some numbers to it. Best is not to use words. I've used before passwords like 1qaz2wsx the first 2 rows. Easy to remember and hard to crack because...

    GAS VS DIESEL

    A gas engine would be the cheapest to maintain and fix. If you keep up on regular maintence you should be fine and it also seems too that with alittle time on your hands its alot easier to lube up a gas then a diesel. Now the problem I seen and read is idleing a GAS Engine. This from what i...

    Fact or fiction?

    My question would have to be, if people at football games have parties before the game its called tailgateing. Now if expedite people get together for a party before the expo would it be a lift gate party? :+ Good post though, i always wondered this. I'm not a drinker so me not worried about...

    expo

    I'm in the same boat too. I think it maybe too late to find one. Doesnt seem to be too many close. So I may just sit in the parking lot put the seat back and chill.

    Ateam, do you have just one of the verizon wireless cards in one laptop? There is a way to use that verizon card and be able to run both computers online. They have routers that take the verizon card and then send it out like the WIFI at home so you can use both computers online and have one...

    I think once i get going i'll be going with the broadband card. From doing some research it looks like along all the expressways there is service. And in the major cities there is broadband coverage and i kinda figure that most freight is probably at the major cities. I have a nextel phone so...

    Working for Fleet

    Well i do have an update for this. After talking to a few fleet owners i found someone that is willing to work with me, teach me to drive and then team up and drive with him. Panther was willing to accept me even with no training but i personally didnt like that idea too much and taking the...

    it is election season, and I hate it.

    I think the only way to get into U of M is to cry about it get it on the news and your in. Seems like its been this way for a while i've noticed (or atleast thought i remember). I did laugh about the commercial when she said she fought to get us the 300 jobs. I applause her for this and getting...

    What kind of forums do you want?

    This is alittle off the topic, but maybe change the forum layout to other forms like a .asp layout. I wouldn't mind seeing other forum topics up here. Electronics is a pretty good one, i'd probably be active in that being the geek i am. Sports, who doesnt like to talk about sports. What i was...

    I havent tried the broadband wireless or heard anyone who's tried so me lost on that. For the wireless to get better reception further away from the access point is to get a wireless card that supports an external antenna that you can mount outside the truck or van. I'm a computer geek (built...

    Working for Fleet

    I think my plan after reading everybodys post is to get my license and then drive team with someone to learn the ropes and when i feel confident enough to go on my own find a fleet owner. That way I learn from a driver who is in the business and if i have problems there is someone there that can...

    Working for Fleet

    I was thinking that too. Also if i work with panther they have the $500 sign on bonus so would i get that too? So that would be some extra money also towards me. So then the 3 weeks on, and 3-4 days off is an ok work time, that was one of the things i was thinking people may have issues with.

    I'm trying to get my buddy to run team with me. He drove T/T's before and is interested in maybe getting into expediting. He has a wife and kids and cant stay out as long so i think that is a little set back. Thats for all the post, keep them comming.

    Working for Fleet

    Well with a couple topics talking about fleet owners and days off and such i have a few questions to ask,just to see if i would be a "good candidate" to work for a fleet owner. So what i'm kinda asking is, if you were a fleet owner would you sign me on, or laugh at me? Ok, I plan on running...
