To enable MAC address filtering, you need to you know your router’s admin login, as this enables you to log in to the WiFi router console. Once logged in as an admin, you can configure your MAC address whitelists and blacklists.

To locate your router’s username and password, check the back of your router. It should be listed there. If, however, you don’t have easy access to your router or the credentials aren’t listed there, check the master list of router logins to find your system’s username and password. You can reset you’re router password if necessary.

Once you’re logged in, you will likely see connected devices in the admin console. Most modern routers display the physical address of devices there. Then, you can go into the router’s settings and enter the MAC addresses where they belong. Though each router will have a slightly different procedure for entering and finalizing MAC address filters, this is the general process that you’ll follow.

• To configure filtering on a Linksys router once you’ve reached the router’s settings, go to Wireless > Wireless MAC Filter.
• To configure filtering on a Netgear router once you’ve reached the router’s settings, go to Advanced > Security > Access Control.
• If you have a D-Link router, navigate to Advanced > Network Filter.

Again, the process for disabling media access control address filtering will vary by router or system. However, the general process for disabling MAC address filtering is as follows:

1. Sign into your router’s administrator page using your router’s username and password
2. Check the MAC filter settings and select Allow as the default mode
3. Select all devices from the list of exceptions, which is the whitelist
4. Delete the list.

Once you disable MAC filtering, your router will no longer sort traffic based on permitted and denied addresses.

To determine if your computer is effectively utilizing all CPU cores, you can use several methods depending on your operating system:

Windows:

1> Task Manager:

• Right-click on the taskbar and select “Task Manager” or press Ctrl * Shift * Esc
• * Go to the “Performance” tab
• * Under “CPU,” you should see a graph showing usage for each core. If all cores are active, you’ll see activity across multiple graphs (one per core)
• 2> Resource Monitor:
• * Open “Resource Monitor” by searching for it in the Start menu
• * Navigate to the “CPU” tab
• * Look at the “CPU Usage” section to see how much of each core is being utilized.
• macOS:
• 1> Activity Monitor:
• * Open “Activity Monitor” (usually found in Applications > Utilities)
• * Click on the “CPU” tab
• * You’ll see a graph displaying CPU usage. Each core is represented separately. If all cores are in use, you’ll see activity across multiple cores.
• Linux (using command-line tools):
• 1> htop:
• * Install htop if it’s not already installed (sudo apt install htop on Debian-based systems).
• * Launch htop from the terminal.
• * You’ll see a detailed view of CPU usage, including individual core usage.
• 2> top:
• * Run top in the terminal.
• * Press 1 (the number one) to display individual CPU core usage.
• Checking in all cases:
• * Activity Indicators: Most monitoring tools will show real-time activity for each core. If you see spikes or sustained usage across multiple cores, it indicates that your system is utilizing all available CPU cores.
• * CPU Load: A high overall CPU load (close to 100% across all cores) during intensive tasks like rendering, compiling, or running multiple applications simultaneously suggests that all cores are actively used.

By using these methods, you can effectively determine if your computer is utilizing all CPU cores and monitor how they are being utilized. This information is particularly useful for ensuring that your system is performing optimally under heavy computational loads.

Discord taps into Google’s own GIF search engine, Tenor, to offer up an endless collection of GIFs. These can be easily accessed and shared to any text conversation or Channel.

1. Open up a Direct Message thread or Text Channel. You’ll find all your Direct Message threads on the left side of the app’s home screen. Text Channels are visible on the left sidebar within a Server, preceded by the “#” symbol.

2. Click the GIF button in the message box at the bottom. In the Discord mobile (iOS, Android) app, you can tap the emoji icon and switch to the GIF tab.

3. Select one of the many pre-made categories from the resulting pop-up or simply enter what you’re looking for into the built-in search bar.

4. Click on any of the listed GIFs to instantly share them to the thread. You can also click the star icon in the top-right corner to add individual GIFs to your Favorites, displayed at the top of the GIF box.

You could, of course, share GIFs from anywhere else on the web as well. If you ever feel the need to do so, simply right-click the image, copy the image address, paste it into the message box, and hit enter.

If you have GIFs downloaded to your computer, you can upload these to a thread by double-clicking the plus (+) button inside the message box or clicking the button once and selecting Upload a File.

You don’t have to make do with the GIFs baked into Discord. A custom GIF is likely to get more traction within conversations. Imagine sharing a looping clip of your very own gameplay, for example, or a screen recording guiding your friends through the solution to a problem they’re facing.

Now, there are more than a few ways you can record your screen and export the clip as a GIF. If you’re looking to go from recording to sharing in the fewest steps.

Here’s how to record your screen to a GIF with Jumpshare.

1. Download the Jumpshare desktop app, install it, and sign up for an account if you don’t already have one.

2. Launch Jumpshare and click the GIF button along the top of the interface or hit the Record GIF shortcut (Alt + Shift + 3 on Windows and Command + Shift + 8 on Mac by default) at any time with Jumpshare running in the background.
