![]() Quite unfamiliar with the Netgear firmware update process? Fret not! In this guide, we are going to explain each and every step involved in the Netgear WiFi extender firmware update process. Not only this but doing so will also prevent and resolve intermittent or dropping WiFi connection issues. In case you face any sort of issues when trying to set up and use your Netgear range extender, immediately update its firmware as a troubleshooting measure. Netgear often releases firmware updates to enhance the performance of their extenders as well as fix software flaws and offer new functions. Therefore, it is very important to download and install the latest Netgear extender firmware update whenever available. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.Firmware updates generally come with functionality improvements and bug fixes for your Netgear WiFi range extender. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available. If this firmware meets your current needs, get the desired version and apply it to your router unit if not, check with our website as often as possible so that you don't miss the update that will improve your device. Also, make sure you don't power off the router or use its buttons during the installation, if you wish avoid any malfunctions. If you're looking for certain safety measures, remember that it would be best if you perform the upload using an Ethernet cable rather than a wireless connection, which can be interrupted easily. If you install a new version, you can expect increased security levels, different vulnerability issues to be resolved, improved overall performance and transfer speeds, enhanced compatibility with other devices, added support for newly developed technologies, as well as several other changes. ![]() ![]() Basically, you must upload the new firmware to the router through its administration page and allow it to upgrade. ![]() In theory, these steps shouldn't be much of a hassle for anyone, because manufacturers try to make them as easy as possible, even if they don't always succeed. About Router Firmware:īefore you consider downloading this firmware, go to the system information page of the router and make sure that the currently installed version isn't either newer or matching this release.ĭue to the large variety of router models and different methods for upgrading the device, it is highly recommended that you read and, above all, understand the installation steps before you apply the new firmware, even if you are a power user. Please DO NOT power off or reboot the device during firmware upgrade, otherwise, it may result to a corrupt firmware and cause the device not to work. After firmware upgrade is done and boots up the system, it changes to steady amber color. The Power LED should be blinking (amber) during firmware upgrade. If the upgrade progress bar on web GUI doesn't display correctly during firmware upgrade, you can still check the status using Power LED. If power LED light turns amber and blinking, power cycle the router to complete the upgrade. The upgrade process is completed when the on screen progress bar completes. Do not interrupt the upgrade while the router does this step. Click Browse and find the file you just downloaded. Log in to the router using a Web browser. Download and extract the new firmware to a convenient place such as your desktop. Write down all the settings which you changed from the default values, since you may need to re-enter them manually. To avoid wireless disconnect issue during the firmware download process, NETGEAR recommends that firmware upgrade be performed on a computer with wired connection. ![]() ![]() Meaning of the three lights on my Tassimo coffee maker when they flash simultaneously.Tassimo My Way: exception of the meanings of the lights.Tassimo Charmy: exception of the meanings of the lights.Tassimo Fidelia and Amia: exception of lights meanings. ![]() Light codes on Fidelia, Amia, Charmy, and My Way coffee machines.Light codes on Suny, Caddy, Joy, Happy, Style, and Vivy coffee brewers.We have prepared this article where we will detail the meaning of each light and its combinations according to each model.

Select Image > Adjustments > Black and White. Go to the Image drop-down menu to make your image black and white. Adding a Black and White adjustment layer gives you more control over the tonal values in your monochrome image. But sometimes high- or low-key photos become too black or too white. The black and white Gradient Map works well for many images. Step 3 (Alternate): Add a Black and White Adjustment Layer Your image should also now be black and white. Above it is a Gradient Map adjustment layer with a mask. You should now see your original image as a “Background” layer in the layers panel. Photoshop comes with many Gradient Map presets. Feel free to stop for a minute and experiment with all the varieties of color you can instantly add to your image using a Gradient Map! Click OK.īut there is no reason you could not choose another color combination for your Gradient Map. If you want to tone your black and white image, click the box next to “Color.” It activates when you select each square.A diamond appears, showing you the mid-point. Move the squares that anchor the black and white tones towards the center to adjust the gradient. You can control the transition using the slider.In the Properties panel, click on the gradient to open the Gradient Editor.Photoshop gradually transitions between the two colors. Darker tones are black, and lighter tones are white. You are making a very basic Gradient Map for color splashes in Photoshop. If you have not worked with a Gradient Map adjustment layer before, you are in for a treat! A Gradient Map adds colors to your image based on tonal brightness. You can click it instead to add a Gradient Map. ![]() It looks like a half-white and half-black circle. There is also an adjustment layer shortcut icon at the bottom of your layers panel. To convert your image to black and white, go to the Image drop-down menu and select Image > Adjustments > Gradient Map. Step 3: Add a Gradient Map Adjustment Layer This resets the foreground and background colors to the defaults we want. They look like a pair of overlapping squares.Ĭlick on the top square and drag the color picker to black. Your foreground and background color settings are near the bottom of the toolbar. A Gradient Map is an easy way to convert your photo to black and white.īut first, you need to set your foreground color to black and your background color to white. You will add a Gradient Map to your image in the next step. Step 2: Set Foreground to Black and Background to White In Lightroom CC, this option is under the File drop-down menu. If you are starting in Lightroom, go to the Photo drop-down menu and select Photo > Edit In > Edit in Photoshop (Ctrl/Command+E). Go to the File drop-down menu and select File > Open (Ctrl/Command+O). Start by opening your image in Adobe Photoshop. Choose a colorful image, maybe even one with too much conflicting color. Step 1: Open Your Image in Adobe PhotoshopĪ color splash effect works best with photos with a lot of colors. We have provided two conversion options in Step 3 and an optional edit at the end. This is a simple step-by-step Photoshop tutorial to follow. But you decide where to bring out the colors and how colorful you want your image to be. A color splash brings out the original colors of your image. To learn different ways to create selective color photography, see our Photoshop tutorial, “ How to Use Selective Color in Photoshop (Step by Step!).”Ī color splash effect is a little different. For instance, red is a popular color to pop against a monochrome background. With selective color, you choose one color to emphasize. ![]() Both bring out colors in an otherwise black and white picture. Buy from Unavailable Using Color Splashes in Photoshop: Comparing the Color Splash Effect and Selective Color TechniquesĪ color splash effect in Photoshop is a bit like selective color photography. We measured the accuracy, consistency, and effect each brand had on the firearms. Then we determined our top pick from the results of the tests. MAXXTech 9mm used brass casings, 115-grain bullets, with Boxer primers. These are the only rounds we fired that had Boxer primers, and the only rounds that had reloadable brass shells. Our first test, with the MAXXTech ammunition, set the bar very high. We fired 100 rounds through each 9mm handgun and did not experience any malfunctions. The low-cost rounds appeared to have no negative effect on accuracy at 15 yards and held standard grouping sizes. MAXXTech won three gold stars in our book doing well with accuracy and consistency. There was not much variation even when swapping between the Glock and VP9. The only noticeable downside to using MAXXTech 9mm is that it left a little more debris in the firearms than a higher quality round would. There was not enough to warrant any concern and was simply an observation we made. We felt confident that we could easily put another 400 rounds through both the VP9 and the Glock with no problems. When loading the magazines, we could see very small shimmers of brass on the rounds, which is possibly what is causing the excess debris. A quick wipe down of the rounds before firing may help keep your 9mm handgun clean longer. Regardless we felt as if a little extra crud won’t hurt so long as your firearm is regularly cleaned and maintained.įor non-competition shooting, MAXXTech ammo was more than good enough, and we were able to keep our leftover brass to be reloaded at a later date. We would feel very confident buying MAXXTech 9mm FMJ rounds in the future. The TulAmmo rounds we used were steel-cased FMJ rounds with 115-grain bullets and Berdan primers. These are the epitome of cheap rounds since nothing says low-cost quite like steel casing. Our test with TulAmmo resulted in a similar performance to the MAXXTech rounds. Our grouping sizes were similar to our average and nearly identical to our experience with MAXXTech. ![]() We saw consistent groupings with very little variation between the VP9 and the Glock. We didn’t experience any malfunctions or misfires with the TulAmmo 9mm’s keeping up with our overall expectations of TulAmmo in general. In fact, the TulAmmo rounds felt the best to shoot overall. The bullets felt crisp leaving the barrel, and had a very satisfying smell. The most prevalent downside we noticed from the TulAmmo rounds was how dirty the pistols were after firing. Both the Glock 17 and the HK VP9 were covered in a thin layer of grime and residue. The spent powder coated the inside of the barrel and magazine followers of both guns. Since this is probably not related to excess material on the cartridges themselves, it seems to be an unavoidable byproduct of TulAmmo. While we don’t think it would stop you from spending a full day shooting, it can cause excess wear on your firearm. ![]() Look Who’s Moo-ving on up!

The specific gravity of cement may be quickly and readily calculated using the Le Chatelier Flask technique. Measuring specific gravity of cement for quality control But cement and kerosene won’t react in any noticeable way. It’s because when water combines with cement, it hydrates and turns into calcium oxide. However, kerosine would serve as the standard if Cement were to be employed as the sample material. The standard temperature for gases is 25 degrees Celsius, which is room temperature. Moreover, it has to be about four degrees Celsius. ![]() Water is the standard material for comparison. ![]() Why is kerosene used to determine the specific gravity of cement? This will affect the bonding and mix of the cement. One can determine moisture content in cement if specific gravity of cement is greater than 3.19. One of the most important property of cement is specific gravity as it’s related to density and viscosity. Gavel, water and cement are used for this test. Using specific gravity in cement mix design, we calculate the solid volume of aggregates in concrete mix. Specific gravity separates bad particles which are lighter than other particles, from good aggregates. Using specific gravity in cement mix design The percentage of water to cement might rise, decreasing the workability and increasing the strength of the concrete. Changing this value will have an effect on the mix structure. Cement with a specific gravity of 3.15 is often used to make a nominal mix.When determining whether or not cement meets the requirements of the Indian Standard Specification, the specific gravity test must be performed if the cement is more than 3 months old.Cement undergoes a chemical reaction after its specific gravity hits 3.19, which occurs when its pores are saturated with water.And it might mean an increase in a material’s specific gravity. Particles of solid matter and pores in a substance, which may have moisture content under harsh weather, are inherent to every material.Because of this, it is common to discover a great deal of debris when using old cement to make concrete. The bonding properties of the mix will suffer if the specific gravity of cement is greater than 3.19, which indicates that the cement was not ground fine enough in accordance with industry standards or that it contains too much water.For example, if the cement has a high moisture content to begin with, increasing the water-cement ratio would not improve the cement paste’s workability or strength because of the increased moisture content. It correlates positively with both productive capacity and relationship integrity. The water-to-cement ratio is well-known to be a crucial component of cement paste. ![]()
