How to Extend a Cheap Modem's Life-article

Have you noticed that newer modems' lifespans seem to be getting shorter and shorter? This is almost universally due to the virtual elimination of the heat sink. This article will help you locate and augment the heat sink on a modem. This will not save a modem that has already fried, and is best accomplished on a new modem.

This may also be performed on a wireless router or any other peripherals that may run hot. Care should be taken to insure that any augmentation does not interfere with circuit pathways. Disconnect and unplug peripherals before performing augmentation.
Extend a Cheap Modem's Life

EditSteps

  1. 1
    Remove the modem cover.

    • Many modems snap together now, unsnap with small flathead screwdriver.
  2. 2
    Locate the heat sink. As noted, this may be more difficult now due to their elimination, but some small chunk of aluminum should be visible. While there is usually only one named "heat sink," lightening in the overall model may have produced other hot spots, and consideration should be made here.

  3. 3
    Augment the heat sink, along with any hot spots. Do this by "soldering" a strip of tin foil to them to act as a radiator; although tin solder won't stick to aluminum, it can be "dripped" into place to hold an augment. Superglue in a thin sheet applied to a pre-formed piece of foil, or aluminum foil is also acceptable. "Heat sink paste," available at electronics supply stores, is also a good way to augment a sink. Any sinks that are exposed enough or hot spots, can also benefit from tack-soldering on a nickel (they are now so light), and then adding foil or more nickels until the operating temperature is reduced.

    • Just setting a nickel on top of a deficient heat sink can help quite a bit, but this is dangerous, as any jarring of the device will cause the nickel to short out the device.
  4. 4
    Install the modem. It is best to install your now pretty funny looking modem on a hidden vertical surface. Ventilation is not as critical now, with the addition to the heat sink, as long as the space is not too confined. Many modems only have one hot spot, and their heat sinks can be augmented so that the cover will go back on, for perhaps double to triple modem life. However, many newer modems have gotten so light in every part that they are all running hot. Proper augmenting here, just adding back in the weight that has been removed from any part liable to run hot, can extend modem life from 3-6 months to 3 years and counting.

How to Network at a Conference-article

Networking at a conference is easier than you think–even if you are shy or don't enjoy participating in networking. The benefits from networking in a conference environment include meeting new people who can give you new research or information leads that will open up new possibilities for you, so it pays to keep your mind focused.
If the big names floor you, and you're feeling dominated by the experts around you, take a deep breath and prepare to realize the opportunity before you. This article provides some tried and true suggestions for helping you to make the most of the big thinkers and agenda-setters at a conference while you've got them close.
Network at a Conference

EditSteps

  1. 1
    Check out the background information online
     Check out the background information online
    Start networking before you even get to the conference. It's important to know who your fellow attendees will be and what their specializations, business, or expertise is. In particular, look up the people who will be presenting at the conference. They are the influencers who can help you get better networked into your targeted industry, or who may even be able to share ideas with you or give you a little time to talk through things that you're doing.
    • Take the time to visit the presenters' websites, if relevant. They should also have email addresses on their websites–even top executives may have emails. But, if they don't try to find them on sites like LinkedIn.[1]
    • If you're aiming to network with someone working for a company, also research the company's background, including its history and age, mission, achievements, and principal staff.
  2. 2
    "Dear X, I will be coming to Z conference where you're presenting and..."
     "Dear X, I will be coming to Z conference where you're presenting and..."
    Email these influencers to let them know that you look forward to hearing their talks. You're growing a relationship when you recognize someone for the valuable expertise they'll be sharing at a conference. These presenters will appreciate you taking the time and you'll gain relationship equity with them. They will, most likely, email you back and thank you. Now you can re-email them and let them know you will make sure you introduce yourself, in person, when you see them at the event.
  3. 3
    Go up and introduce yourself at the event.
     Go up and introduce yourself at the event.
    Go up and introduce yourself at the event. Go to the talks of those presenters you have emailed. Go early and sit in the front row so that you're in a good position to reach them after the talk. Turn off your cell phone if you haven't already done so. Be attentive so that you can raise any particular points with them afterward if the opportunity presents itself. After their presentation, take up a business card with a personalized note you've already written on the back, and start telling them how much you appreciated their insights. This will build even more relationship equity. Introduce yourself, compliment the presenter on their presentation, saying briefly why you liked it, and ask any relevant questions that you have (see next step).
    • If you're terrified of giving out a business card, role play giving a business card to someone with a family member or friend. Introduce yourself first ("Hi! I'm Ken. I emailed you about The Barbie Factor last week.") Then practice steering the conversation away from you and onto the other person by asking open-ended questions. Or, you can practice doing this in front of the mirror. The more you practice giving a business card, the more naturally it will come to you.
    • You can also ask to follow up with a quick phone call with a question you may have about their presentation. Now you're at the point where you have really created a connection and, more likely than not, laid the groundwork for a long-term connection with whom you can develop all kinds of new business, creative, scientific, or career opportunities.
    • Be sure that your business card is up-to-date with the latest details to contact you. If what you do is not clear from the card, be sure to fix that because the presenters will be receiving many cards and you don't want to be lost in the pile because of ambiguity. Also be sure to use clean, unbent cards for a professional look.
  4. 4
    Be ready to get to the point quickly.
     Be ready to get to the point quickly.
    Be ready to get to the point quickly. Presenters, business people, and others associated with the conference will generally be time-limited and won't get much of a chance to stand around chatting with you. This is an aspect that often scares novice networkers because they're worried about being tongue-tied. As with giving the business card, it's a really good idea to role play the kind of conversation openers and content that you'd like to convey with the particular person. Coupled with your prior research into their expertise or business, you should be able to hone down the precise things that you'd like to get across in a very short period of time.
    • Make a list of questions you'd like to ask the presenter. Consider picking the most important two questions in case you really are time pressured, so that you get the optimal connection without feeling too flustered. Practice asking the questions in front of the mirror.
    • One way of getting assurance that your questions are welcome is to preface the conversation with something like: "Have I caught you at a bad time? I had two quick questions I wanted to ask you."
    • Bear in mind that you might be able to arrange to see them later at a dinner event or similar event during the conference if they're not free straight after their talk. Still aim to give them your business card, but be sure to make a time or reason to catch up again during the period of the conference.
    • If you have promotional material, a paper, or any other documentation or software that you'd like the presenter to have, be sure to have it ready and packaged up to give to the presenter. This is a good way of having a reason for more follow-up too, as you can ask the presenter what they thought of the things you gave them.
  5. 5
    Listen.
     Listen.
    Listen. Whatever opportunity you get to network directly with the presenter, be sure to listen well. A good networker is a good listener and while you're talking to the presenter, focus on them and their answers to your questions and not on anybody else in the room. Limit your own talking and encourage the presenter to talk. Whatever you do, no matter how excited or enamored of this person's expertise/fame/importance you are, don't jump to conclusions about what they're going to say next and try to fill it in for them. Remain calm and let them do the talking.
    • Stay positive and don't fear pauses. Be considerate of the fact that the conference is probably abuzz with atmosphere and more overwhelming for the presenter than it is for you even.
    • Maintain eye contact, nod, and unfold your arms.
    • Don't be afraid to make notes on your business cards or in your smart phone if there is anything you promise to follow up. This shows your enthusiasm and willingness to do what you've promised. It also ensures that you won't forget!
    • Enjoy talking to the other person. Here is a wonderful opportunity, so make the most of it by enjoying it as well as trying to connect.
  6. 6
    Learn how to excuse yourself gracefully.
     Learn how to excuse yourself gracefully.
    Learn how to excuse yourself gracefully. There will be times when the presenter doesn't turn out to be the right contact you were hoping to connect with, or you start being clearly aware yourself that the presenter does not appear that interested to talk with you. In this case, excuse yourself politely, thank them for their time, and continue your networking with other members of the conference.
  7. 7
    See which other conference attendees seem to be with the presenter.
     See which other conference attendees seem to be with the presenter.
    See which other conference attendees seem to be with the presenter. If the presenter came alone, then this step won't be of help. But if the presenter came with a team and some of them are part of the audience, try to network with them and exchange business cards. Let them know what your business, research, or study is, and see whether it is possible for them to connect you to the presenter in some way, or even better, find out which other people within the presenter's team are worth connecting with more deeply in terms of doing business or exchanging information and ideas.
    • Remember that those who act as "spheres of influence", while often lower in a company, institution, or organization, have just as much importance. They are the people who have time to listen to others and are proud of what they do and are happy to share information to others. These people will network with integrity and can share good information with you and be important contacts too. For example, you might have wanted to discuss something with the professor who just gave the presentation but he's had to rush back to his baby's birth. If his PhD student is attending the conference too, find her and ask her the questions and share your ideas. If she's convinced that you're genuine and someone definitely worth staying in touch with, she'll help remind the professor about you. Just be sure to keep in touch with both her and the professor after the conference.
  8. 8
    Loved your talk, here is a paper I've written since...
     Loved your talk, here is a paper I've written since...
    Follow up with an email to the presenter. If you can, send a relevant article to the topic they shared. This will show that you have an avid interest in the topic and that you're willing to share information with them. And if possible,connect the presenter with other relevant people you know personally and share information as generously as you can.
    • Follow up with promptness anything that you promised you'd do. If you find for some reason that cannot meet the promise, let the presenter know that there has been a problem and what you intend to do next. Keep the channels of communication flowing; not everyone follows up after networking and they miss enormous opportunities.
  9. 9
    Look! That guy I met at the conference said he might be able to help our project!
     Look! That guy I met at the conference said he might be able to help our project!
    Stay in touch with the presenter by email and phone. Anything can happen here. It's all about sharing who you are and what skills you offer to the world of work that should start a great conversation around connections and opportunities for all those great influences you meet at conferences.
