I just read on www.keeginternational.com that UPS's dont protect against power surges.... True? Mine claims to do that! Should I use a surge protector where my UPS plugs in?

ok, just found a link...

Look for the one above part number :

Thats it!

I just had a look at them...they say "Made by Keeg International" on them. I dont think its those standard ones which come with 56K modems.

Well, the Telkom ones are little square units. They have a green LED on them (just singalling IN USE). There's a phone line input and output as well. They gave me one when I got ISDN, but the guy who installed my line gave me another one for my PC. I dont know if I could trust Telkom products. Anybo...

I have ISDN 64K - thinking of ADSL 192.....any advice.....anyone?

What you can do to balance out the sound is lower the sound of your front speakers (in the audio mixer) and then crank up the volume a bit more than usual. Should give you a balanced out sound level... The speakers work 100%. I use a Realtek AC97 onboard audio card. The rears play but very soft. Whe...

How about those Surge protectors that Telkom supply with their ISDN network terminator? I've got on which feeds power to a UPS, and another one which powers the network terminator itself. Should I get some other surge protectors or are those Telkom ones good enough:? I recently inquired about a UPS ...

Ok, it seems like getting those cables is proving more difficult than I thought! Seems like everybody I call does'nt have them! Does anybody know where I can a couple of those cables? They're the same as the single cables which plug your Monitor into your PC. One end is male, the other end is female...

I'm with the rest of the guys here..... Logitech X-530's....Best bang for your buck. I have a set and am very happy...they sound *sweet* ;-) Incredible Deception had a 40% of all speakers sale.....I got them for R599. Normal price R999?? Yah right! One thing I would add to them....Bass and treble co...

Thanks for all the advice guys. I ended up going to Frontier Electronics after work and picking up a 1000VA Leums (?) UPS for R480 + Vat. Check it out at http://www.upsleums.com/en/english.htm. Dont know how good it is, but will let you know...They sell it as an "OEM" UPS...but its actuall...

I bought the A-4tech Cordless Office from Cyberdyne. It was really cheap too! R299+vat. Also, it came with a USB battery charger and 6 AA batteries. Whats cool about it is that you always have a fresh set of batteries waiting in case the ones in your device dies. Very slick. Very good value for mone...

Thrall - I'm also strongly considering getting that OEM UPS from Frontier. But I'm looking at the 1000Va model as I have two PC's at home. Did you get it? How is it ? (If you did) Thanks I'm having similar problems, so I've ordered a 600Va UPS from Frontier Electronics - a brand called OEM. Here's w...

Hi guys, I run SuSE 9 on one of my machines at home. It acts as a internet server mainly. I have Squid 2.5 running as an HTTP proxy on that machine, and EZbouce as my IRC relay server. I have a Windoze machine my wife uses which uses my SuSE box for the internet connection. Is this Windoze 2k machin...
