I received these by e-mail, found them pretty cool and thought it would be nice to share, i think it'll be a fun activity for children to play and spend some quality time with parents! Enjoy
I modified the antenna of my usb bluetooth, the range of the device used to be very small, now the damn thing works almost like my wifi router used to work!
I didn't buy anything for this mod since I already had everything needed, the antenna was taken from my fried dlink router along with its "piggy tail", well that's basically all you need =0)
This mod also requires a bit of soldering skills but nothing fancy
Tools needed: Soldering iron,solder,super glue and for cosmetics, Patex glue!
These are the pics of my Trendnet bluetooth before and after the antenna modification
Very small range!
Crazy range(before cosmetics), my phone now connects to the pc throughout the whole house... Even if you got 3-4 concrete walls between the 2 devices!
After my cosmetic appliance of Patex to the part of plastic where i cut...
My "AMD" (its VIA chipset,not real AMD...) kept overheating and dying when it heated up sooooo i added 3 power supply fans to it, 3 of em push the air in, 1 takes the air out, now it goes max 47 degrees celsius, compared to over 70 before ;) Successful mod... Will definetely overclock and see how much it can take, once i get my laptop back!
