Are you perhaps looking for 192.168.1.2 instead? Using 192.168.2.1 to Connect to a Router All routers use an IP address to connect to the router’s administrative console and configure its settings. You may never need to access these settings, as most home routers provide a wizard-like interface that walks you through the setup. However, if you have problems installing the router or you want to perform some advanced configuration, you may need to access the router’s console....

Standard iPhone Specifications Physically, the iPhone 13 series is somewhat similar to the iPhone X, XS series, and XR or iPhones 11 and 12. It is, however, very different from earlier models, like the iPhone 8, iPhone 6S series and others.

Following Someone on Twitter Following someone on Twitter simply means subscribing to their tweets or messages to receive them and read them in your feed. If you want to know what a particular user is tweeting in real-time, you follow that person. Then, when you log in to Twitter, their comments show up in your feed, along with the tweets of those you’ve chosen to follow. Following someone also means that you have granted the person you follow permission to send you private tweets, called direct messages on Twitter....

Walmart is releasing an app that uses AI to let you try on clothes at home. It’s part of a growing effort to use computers to take the guesswork out of online apparel shopping. “While the virtual try-on trend has been growing in fashion for some years, rudimentary solutions allowed customers to see very roughly how a garment would look on their body, but not how it would fit,” Vadim Rogovskiy, CEO of 3DLOOK, a company which produces virtual try-on software, said in an email interview....

The curious thing about these updates—iOS 14.6, WatchOS 75, and macOS 11.4—is how similar they all are. In fact, outside of bug fixes, the main features are the same across all devices.

We all had a pretty good idea that Samsung had plans to unveil its Galaxy S22 series of smartphones when it teased as much back in January. So it’s not much of a surprise that Samsung did just that and unveiled the new Galaxy S22 during February’s Unpacked event. Though specifics like a focus (pun definitely intended) on improved camera and video quality and an assortment of three different models to choose from was slightly less obvious—12MP rear cameras; 40MP front cameras; that kind of thing....

The Android operating system began supporting photo spheres in Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, and the Nexus 4 was the first phone that shipped with photo sphere capabilities out of the box. Your device must have a gyro sensor in order for it to work. Taking a Photo Using the photo sphere feature involves locating dots on the screen so that the camera can capture everything around you. Use Cases A panoramic image offers a significant business case for: Repeat this until you no longer see any white dots....

New Messages updates include a new collage design with the photos people text you, as well as photo stacks that you can swipe through and tap to view. One of the most important updates in Messages is a Shared With You feature that conveniently saves and pins articles, photos, and more into a separate Shared With You folder that you can look at or read at a later time. You can click on the content shared and it will take you back to the conversation with the person who shared it with you, so you can pick the conversation back up concerning what was shared....

In Apple’s announcement, the company detailed some of the new features, which include adding a live camera view to presentations and pivot tables for better data analytics.

The feed appears alongside the content in a slide, and can be resized or stylized with masks, frames, and drop shadows. Mac users can connect multiple cameras to their presentation and even show the screen of a connected iPhone or iPad....

Since its launch, users of the sixth-generation iPad mini have complained of a strange wobbling occurring on their devices. Twitter users have even posted videos showing the wobbling in action, where one side scrolls at a different rate than the other. But according to a report by Ars Technica, an Apple spokesperson told the publication that the wobble is perfectly normal for the device’s LCD screen. The jelly-like scrolling doesn’t hurt the functionality of the iPad mini, but it can still be annoying....

Speaking of the screen, you get a 6.1-inch OLED screen with a 2532x11170 resolution. It works out to a crisp 460ppi and benefits from the brighter color contrast and dense blacks the panel technology is known for. It can hit 625 nits for high levels of brightness. The only downside is that it’s a 60Hz screen, so you won’t be able to take advantage of the faster refresh rates of many Android phones....

The price tag for that wonderful sound, however, is steep at $299. That’s why I’m seriously looking forward to the HomePod mini, just announced at a much more recession-friendly price of $99. The mini, Apple claims, delivers “amazing” sound using technology like a new processor and “advanced” software. It’s available in white and space gray, pre-orders begin on November 6, and it will start shipping the week of November 16....

Originally teased back in 2019, we finally got our first look at Back 4 Blood gameplay during The Game Awards 2020. The upcoming title looks to be a spiritual follow-up to the Left 4 Dead series, which hasn’t seen a new entry since 2009’s Left 4 Dead 2. While Valve often receives much of the recognition for Left 4 Dead’s success, Turtle Rock Studios was the main development group behind the cooperative hit, and now it is bringing that experience to the next generation of gaming with Back 4 Blood....

With all that time spent indoors, I’ve returned to a pastime favorite of mine: reading. A product of Barnes & Noble, the Nook GlowLight 3 is an e-reader with both blue and warm light, so your eyes won’t feel like sandpaper after hours of trying to decipher text. It’s lightweight and features page turn buttons on both sides, making it easy to tear through books. After 25 hours of testing, I’m really happy that I decided to swap to this e-reader, despite some flaws....

Vocal scrubbing is never perfect. Because the process usually works by inverting the stereo image and converting it to and from mono, there are always some vocal artifacts. And even if you’re able to remove most of the vocals the instrumental track still sounds altered. However, with some experimentation, good-quality audio, and a little bit of luck, you can achieve decent results. Software that can remove a voice from a song can cost a lot of money....
