One of the benefits that the IP outlet offers us is to be able to control our local or remote connectivity through highly known icmp queries such as ping. This way, if the internet connection is lost, it can switch off and on our equipments automatically.

Recently I have seen – likely you too – a little device that has a relatively affordable price which detects if our internet enabled devices are not able to connect to the internet and then automatically resets our modem. It is ResetPlug, costs 60 Dollars and has been widely publicized as an innovative product even though in reality it is way too far from being the first device that provides this kind of services.

A story that is likely to be repeated all around the world and it’s something that has us like protagonists, just as mere spectators of the vagaries of technology. Surely, we have bought our cutting-edge FullHd TV just some weeks ago, thinking that this technology will last for a long time with us. Unfortunately, this is a wrong fact because in this precise moment are settling the bases of its replacement.

What is a VPN and what does it do?

The first thing we need to understand is the real concept of virtual private network, which is basically a secure network of private browsing that allows computers and devices to connect through an extension of the Internet, without being actually linked to the network, allowing secure transmission of data.

To get a clearer picture, let’s imagine two remote offices that require transmitting data or information and for this it is necessary to connect the computers to a VPN network through an extension of the Internet, that is, through the internet but without involving third parties since it is not a public network.

Purchase Guide for Second Hand Components

When renovating our PC many of us have had to choose, in certain occasions, to buy second hand components, a market that can serve us as a scape valve when we don´t have enough budget to face the cost of a renovation with new components or we simply don’t want to make that investment because we’re only looking to extend a little the useful life of the device until we can change it completely.
