    Not sure on that, but my old Logitech G7, and my logitech wireless mouse for my laptop both run on the 2.4ghz frequency, and ive never had any problems with interference, I believe it will auto switch channels as necessary, but I have no idea of finding out how many it has to choose from.

    Re: [H3XU5].lan2 - GameOn - 7/8/9 November 2008 - Uttoxeter

    Hey dudes,

    I'm a bit of a LAN noob, just wondering how exactly LAN parties work? Never been to one before, but I'm sort of half tempted to come and join you all...

    Cheers,

    Suman

    Hi Suman,

    Come put a few forum names to faces

    Basically instead of me trying to explain all the fun and madness that occurs have a read through these f.a.q's from the gameon website.

    http://mylan.gameon.co.uk/content/About_LANs

    http://mylan.gameon.co.uk/content/LA...sked_Questions

    If you have any questions, feel free to post them up in here, or P.M me etc

    Oh cool thanks for the links Rasta. Had to lol at this:

    Ok, I'm really interested, what do I need?
    Your PC and monitor!
    Specification should be a minimum of (the more the better!):

    * Pentium III 500 mhz processor or equivalent
    * 128 meg ram
    * TNT2 3d graphics card or equivalent
    * 16X CD Rom
    * A few gigabytes spare on your hard disk wont go amiss.
    * 10 meg Network Card
    Hehe

    Well I'm pretty tempted and it is only down the road from me...

    it's really nice to meet new people, especially new ones to LANs (although I was a LAN N00b at the last one...)

    Re: [H3XU5].lan2 - GameOn - 7/8/9 November 2008 - Uttoxeter

    Just incase they do follow the non-wireless rule quite strictly, has anyone got anything like an MX518 or the like I can borrow? (Just for the Lan)

    I'm planning on bringing the MX1000, but it is just incase they say no

    Re: [H3XU5].lan2 - GameOn - 7/8/9 November 2008 - Uttoxeter

    People used to use wireless keyboards / mice at LAN, the real issue is when there is a few people close to each other using them, the person with the most charged batteries used to end up controlling all the wireless computers

    None-wireless route yeah I better plan for that as well just in case.

    I've never known them to worry about wireless mice etc and I too will be using a MX1000 mouse and have done a few times really.

    FYI - we couldn't track down UT anthology in MK this week... but it is still available at game online who are still doing the 2 for £15 offer.

    C&C Deluxe edition, IL2, UT Anthology and BF1942 are a good selection to get - 4 games for £30!

    I have UT backup copy (honestly, lost my original discs ) and UT2004. I guess no-one plays UT3 though?

    I have a MX518 spare which I'll bring with me anyway. You can have first dibs on it if need be.
