About the author.

Hello, my name is Jeremy Jefferson. I am currently a full-time student at ITT-Tech in Fort Wayne Indiana. I am 22 years old and live in Larwill, Indiana.

I graduated early from Whitko High School in 2005. In high school I was active in school publication. I worked on the yearbook all four years and also did the school website for a couple years.

Currently I am working towards a networking degree from ITT-Tech. My goal is to get a career in computer networking. Ideally I would love to get a job working as the IT administrator for a school.

My First Hardware Modification

Today I, for the first time, modified a chip. I removed the underclock of my nslu2 CPU speed to increase it to 266 mHZ (was underclocked to 133mHZ previously.)

I actually succeeded and did not destroy my nslu2. It booted right back up and running the command cat /proc/cpuinfo returned:

BogoMIPS : 263.78

Before I removed the transistor on the nslu2 it was like 132.x

I am just sort of proud of my self now. By the way, I removed the transistor with a pair of finger nail clippers (I would not recommened this to others).
