Further research on the intertubes seem to indicate that the SB6120 modem's DHCP is only activated when the modem is disconnected from the internet.

You *should* be able to have both setup for DHCP, the router getting it's address dynamically from the modem, and then everything connected to the router automatically gets its address from the router's DHCP. The modem isn't going to do the NAT'ing for me... How is the NAT'ing going to work if the DHCP is in the modem? Hm....

Location: Fanwood, NJ 07023 Service: Comcast HSI with Blast! My old setup was: Linksys BEFCMU10 modem -> Linksys WRT310N router -> Netgear GS116 switch -> 3 Mac computers, tivo, etc. After realizing my speeds were lower than expected with Blast! (I was getting 5.1Mbps down), I called Comcast service. Of course we setup the direct connection for the phone call: Linksys BEFCMU10 Modem -> Macbook The phone tech had me check the speed, got the 5.1Mbps. He checked my modem remotely and found no problems. He rebooted it, with no change in speed. He is stumped, because everything seems ok to him. The guy tells me that my "old" modem may be the problem. He schedules a tech visit. ---- Technician comes today (2 hours early). Checks the signal up to the modem, tells me that everything is perfect, signal levels are great, etc., and then leaves. He said "maybe it's the modem." So, I'm stuck with still slow download speeds (5.1Mbps), no more help from Comcast. ---- We drive over to BestBuy and buy a new Motorola SB6120 modem. Here is the info: Model Name: SB6120 Vendor Name: Motorola Firmware Name: SB6120-1.0.2.1-SCM00-NOSH Boot Version: PSPU-Boot 1.0.0.4m1 Hardware Version: 3.0 Serial Number: 317001928809794605030011 Firmware Build Time: Jul 20 2009 20:04:47 So, I setup the direct connection: Motorola SB6120 -> Macbook Speed is great, around 23.5 Mbps down / 4.6Mbps up!! A few minutes later, I start getting all my web pages redirected to: http://actsvr.comcastonline.com/nocache/realactsvr.html (I could ping any website by name during this time

I laminated mine after every store employee told me to do so. Took it to a local teacher's supply store, and the guy who did the laminating told me he did them all the time. So, who knows if it is legal, but nearly everyone does it....

If you are an NJ resident (or any state other than PA), you may not take your handgun home with you. It must be shipped to an FFL in your state. I haven't bought one at Cabela's specifically, so I don't know their exact rules, but they absolutely won't let you take it home....

Went again today, on my way home from a quick trip to Maryland. It was less crowded today than I've ever seen it, but still busy. Got 5 lbs of Varget, which I've been getting low on, and which I use to load my 3 most popular rounds. The employee discount coupon worked again; got almost $100 off my $400 order, including $60 off a pair of great boots $190 -> $130. They also had almost every size and brand of primers, both Remington and CCI in every shape. Got the CCI 450 (small rifle magnum) that I've been looking for, and they had BR primers in both LR and SR. Just sitting on the shelf!! $35 without coupon, $29 with!

Are there really 350 active dealers in NJ? I have a hard time believing that. Maybe FFL holders?

done

OK, I added Rutgers Gun & Boat, also known on the intraweb as Rutgers Gun Books.

I thought we figured out they were closed on an old thread. I did add Jim Flynn's Truck Repair, though... I think maybe we should have different colors for gun dealers who have store fronts, and those who work from home?

Added Action Shooter Supply in Haledon!

OK, let's try: http://uucurl.com/x.php?p=3209 or http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF&msa=0&msid=102727359301441126003.00047be349a968b8509d2 I think there was an extra space in the previous URL.

In the meantime, I've got around 60 ranges, shops and gunsmiths on the map so far. PM me if I'm missing something you know about.

OK, started it up. I'll keep adding them: Blue pins = store. Red pins = store + range.

Here is what we need: a Google map page with red pins for all the gun shops, blue pins for all the ranges. There used to be a few websites that let you set these up, but I think with a little Perl and some Google Map API you can do it yourself easily too. This would be a tremendous help for all of us. When you are in some place in NJ, you can quickly check to see what is nearby, and new members could find this useful information quickly. Who knows an easy way to set this up?

No capitalization after the semicolon; you fail as well.

I stopped by at lunch. Only around 35 minutes from my Plainsboro, NJ office. They did have a pretty good selection of eastern european (mostly) surplus rifles. A lot of them were clearly not NJ-compliant. OK selection of handguns, but didn't look very closely. Not so much ammo, except for some giant spam cans of 5.56. The place had that moldy/dusty/musty smell I hate. Combined with old cigarette smoke, maybe, for an extra-special odor...

Anyone ever visit Surplus City in Feasterville, PA?

Yes, that was my point, although sarcasm is hard to transmit in forums....

Five anecdotes about people doing anything is not enough to enact any law. If you follow this improper logic, you will make gas stoves illegal because a bunch of people light their houses on fire or suffocate themselves trying to heat their homes with their ovens, and you'll make Christmas trees illegal because a few people light themselves on fire with overloaded extension cords. Actually, you should make extension cords illegal because a few stupid people overload them every year and cause fires. Which cause more fires: novelty lighters or cheap extension cords?

It was busy, but less so than the last few times I've been there. Much less than a few weeks ago. Got a parking spot in the second row, plenty of room for carts in the gun area. So, busy, but not insane.

Cabela's "Employee Price Sale" coupon was fantastic - got an average of 18% off our whole purchase, and 25% off a lot of the stuff we bought. Bullets for reloading 10% Lead bullets 25% 9mm PMC ammo 21% Powder 10% Scope cover 25% Etc. Saved a lot of money, spent a lot of money. Cashier was impressed by the savings, told us we were her "super shoppers of the week." If you get this coupon, and need stuff they have, it is well worth it.

You should just call Vinny up and tell him what you are going to pay, and he'd probably be able to tell you if he could beat that or not. He's a stand-up guy, and seems to be able to do a good job on pricing. I'd give him a quick call; won't take long and if he can't beat your price he won't mind you buying somewhere else...
