multiple SSID / Network Segregation

Good to know:

Channels are by radio, not SSID.

(source: https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2104273)

Example

(AP#1) Channel 1

SSID - TEST1

SSID - TEST2

(AP#2) Channel 11

SSID - TEST1

SSID - TEST2

As you can see your TEST 1 will broacast on channel 1 and 11 ...

Network Segregation

1. Reset both routers to factory defaults by holding the reset button for 15 seconds with power on.
2. Change the base address of the secondary router to 192.168.2.1.
3. Connect the primary (insecure) router's WAN port to the cable modem.
4. Connect the secondary (secure) rotuer's WAN port to one of the primary router's LAN ports.
5. Configure the wireless section of each of the routers to your desires, making sure you use two non-conflicting channels, i.e. 1, 6, and 11 are the good ones in the US.
6. Do NOT disable DHCP anywhere.

This will accomplish the desired result.

Note, the secure environment is the secondary router that is connected to the primary router, which is in turn connected to the cable modem. The primary router is the one that is for "public" use.

disable dim screen at secure Desktop win7

Since I replaced my monitor for a bigger one I find it more annoying that the whole screen gets dimmed during secure desktop so I was looking for a way to stop the dimming.
This can be achieved by lowering your UAC setting one notch (one below default)

Although not really what I wanted because I don't like the fact my security is lowered a bit.

Explanation from Microsoft:
This setting is the same as "Notify me only when programs try to make changes to my computer," but you're not notified on the secure desktop.

Because the UAC dialog box isn't on the secure desktop with this setting, other programs might be able to interfere with the visual appearance of the dialog box. This is a small security risk if you already have a malicious program running on your computer.

Note: The outcome of the registry change as described here also lowers the security
