What to do if stalker mods aren't available for download due to broken link

Sometimes the download links do not work and give an error of the following:

503 Service Unavailable
No server is available to handle this request.

Try instead to search on Google for the name of the mod you are looking for. I found out that the file I wanted was still available and downloadable from the file front website, but the link from the stalker files website was broken. This may be because file front has implemented the new "survey-based" free downloads., But stalker files has yet to update the programming code to their links.

You could just try directly searching on file front for the name of your mod.

For example I tried to download from this webpage from stalker files:
http://stalker.filefront.com/file/STALKER_FOV_SWITCHER;101805
clicking " Download from Worldwide Mirror by FileFront Download STALKER FOV SWITCHER! Gave me the previously stated error page. So instead I went on Google search for "STALKER FOV SWITCHER (1.4)" and the 2nd result I got was from the file front website, from which the download worked fine. http://www.gamefront.com/files/11631650

You can also try searching on Google directly for the filename "fov_switcher_v14.7z" and may be results will turn up from file hosting websites or user cloud backups were someone uploaded the file, but may not have given it a proper name.

Replacement Li Po or Li ion batteries on eBay may have been manufactured many years ago and sat in a hot warehouse over the summer months. All 3.7 V Lipo batteries should be compatible., Not necessarily ones that are marketed as PS3 replacement batteries. Consider buying a recently manufactured Lipo battery or from seller that guarantees battery capacity.

You can buy there is Lipo batteries already with a JST connector that fit the PS3 controller JST connector. Alternatively, you can cut the wires to your older battery, leaving in the JST connector to the PS3 controller, and manually tie the cuts wire terminals to the wires of the replacement battery. Use electrical tape, or perhaps normal tape.

Revision is good right? Revision means they fix things and make it better right? Revision means newer battery right lithium-ion batteries deteriorate over time. Newer is better. However, the launch day models could be the best built because the company's reputation is on the line. Later revisions will have reduced cost because the prices of the consul has dropped. All the hard-core gamers already purchased at launch day. The hard-core gamers have the most demanding tastes. They want the best built quality. later on, the casual gamers, who noticed build quality less and use their hardware a lot less, can make do with lesser quality revisions. This is just a theory.

Stopped having to reset my router everyday

I was using a Netgear power adapter for my TP link router. The wireless dropped everyday and I had to reset the router once a day. I started using the original TP link power adapter and the router has been flawless for the past week.

The voltages on the 2 adapters were slightly different. Maybe this caused the router to overheat when the wireless bandwidth was high.
