Anyone who lives in an crowded city apartment building can tell you that wireless networking on the 2.4GHz band is almost useless — but the 5GHz band is wide-open, so those of us who’ve switched over are wire-free and living it up once again. The only problem is that most devices don’t support 5GHz, particularly game consoles and other entertainment devices that could benefit from streaming data at high speeds, but Buffalo’s got you covered with the new Nfiniti Ethernet Converter. The black box bridges four Ethernet ports onto a 2.4GHz or 5GHz 802.11 network, which’ll let you add legacy devices onto your hot new network at full speed, and it’s all managed by a simple web interface.

Designing a Web site so that search engines easily find the pages and index them. The goal is to have your page rank as high up on the results list as possible, if not at the very top. Search engine optimization (SEO) includes the choice of keywords used in the text paragraphs and the placement of those words on the page, both visible and hidden inside meta tags. Search engines use different criteria for ranking pages, and those

criteria may be periodically changed to keep Web page designers from falsely describing their pages and obtaining a permanent, high ranking. This is why an entire industry exists to help Web site owners rank as high as possible. See cloaking, shadow domain, meta tag and social search engine.
