F1 Training Machine By Technogym

I doubt you'll find this machine at your local gym!

The training machine is designed to expose the drivers’ body to the high impact stress that their muscles need to endure during a regular F1 race. The machine also simulates G-force impact quite accurately which drivers cannot be prepared for via traditional training routines. The machine is also the ultimate training regime for F1 drivers that produce rapid acceleration and deceleration via a turn motion which trains the drivers’ bodies in 4 different directions.
The driver’s helmet is hooked up to a bunch of cables in the front and rear and the whole mechanism is based on elastic forces to create a realistic simulation. The steering wheel in the machine is also loaded with 25 kg of weight as well as separate 2.5 kg weight stacks that help train the drivers’ arms.

Can you guess which team uses this machine for training?

Seeing as I had no need for this switch, at the time, it just sat in my office collecting dust. Once I started my structured media home wiring project I realized the 16 port Netgear could be quite useful, but after a few unsuccessful attempts at utilizing it I realized it was DOA. Here's the situation, when this switch is plugged in, an LED will signify the unit is on and working, however whenever an Ethernet cable is inserted into any of the available jacks, there is no LED activity or connectivity. I took to the world wide web and came across a few similar situations all of which indicated that my unit probably had a bad capacitor. To verify if this was indeed the culprit behind my non functioning switch I woul
