09/03/2008 - Free Private Registrations
If you do not want someone snooping around a whois search to find out who owns your domain and where you live etc., you can opt for private registrations. At MicroPirates we don't charge extra for private registrations. At Nework Solutions you would pay $43.99 ($34.99 for domain registration and $9.00 for private registration) to register a .com domain for 1 year with private registration. At MicroPirates you pay a flat $10.
09/03/2008 - MicroPirates Wireless Xbox Adapters
Our MicroPirates Wireless Xbox Adapters have been so popular we can barely keep up with the orders. We take the award winning Linksys WRT54G and WRT54GS wireless routers and upgrade the firmware (tricky operation) to the Linux based DD-WRT firmware. From there we configure the router to act as a wireless adapter for Xbox and Xbox 360s. These units are far more powerful and cost way less than the Microsoft Xbox 360 adapter. You can also use the adapter to plu in other devices such as PC's to get an Internet connection. Please note: The MicroPirates adapter does not replace your excisting wireless router, as you need to already have a Wi-Fi network in place for the adapter to work (just like you would for the Microsoft adapter).
