    Netgear DG834GV - bad CapXon units

    In the Serviceman's Log in Silicon Chip, March 2009, there was a wireless ADSL router with bad capacitors (two 330uF 10V units). They appeared to be general-purpose units.
    Replacing these capacitors fixed the problem.

    There was also a "Mailbag" letter in the same issue about bad electrolytic capacitors.
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

      I wonder if the issue will ever truly be brought to light.

      It would be great if we started seeing japcaps all over the place again. I was looking in some new Yamaha receivers at the store and they all had Jamicon caps in it. Very unlike Yamaha to make cheap crap like that

          HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
          by momaka
          Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

          Few units of Lenovo Thinpad t490s had the same `backspace` and `enter` keys issues
          by czacha414
          Guys, I need your help. I have an issue with Lenovo T490s laptops – several dozen units in different configurations, and in about half of them, the same problem appeared over time. Specifically, the Enter and Backspace keys don't work unless they are held down for a few seconds or pressed slightly harder than usual. Once they start working, they continue to function until the next reset. However, this is not just a Windows issue – it occurs under other operating systems, in BIOS, and during POST as well.

          While searching for information, I found many threads describing the same...

          Netgear JGS516PE Switch Fan Replacement
          by shovenose
          I got a free Netgear JGS516PE PoE switch and it works fine but the fan makes a grinding sound.

          It uses a 12V 3 pin fan with a non standard pin out. So I took a Noctua fan and moved the wires around in the connector to make it work.

          Unfortunately, the fan spins for just a couple seconds before it turns off and the Fan Fault LED comes on.

          I think it's stupid they designed it to stop powering the fan when it detects a fault but I guess that's what they chose to do.

          Instead of spending $30 on the correct replacement fan, does anyone have a clean...
