Your Tesco broadband router is a key piece of equipment when it comes to getting online. Without the router, you can’t connect your laptop or other device to the DSL service being channeled through your phone line. The router can disseminate data via wired connection or a wireless network. In either case, you are responsible for the care of your router and must pay to replace it if you cause damage. For this reason and many more, it’s important to know a little something about your Tesco broadband router before you connect it and start using Tesco Internet service. All new broadband customers receive the Wireless Technicolor 582N Pro.

Ethernet Ports

The router has four independent Ethernet ports. Ethernet ports are slightly wider than other ports such as telephone jacks, and the cables to which they belong are often brightly coloured. An Ethernet cable connects to your router port on one end, while the other end of the cord attaches to your laptop or desktop computer. Your DSL travels through this cord, supplying an online connection to your devices. You only need the Ethernet ports if you are using wired Internet. If you choose to use Tesco broadband wirelessly, you won’t need to use these ports or their corresponding cables.

Wireless Capabilities

The Tesco router is also Wi-Fi certified, so you can connect to the Internet wirelessly. A wireless network communicates over a signal, and will require your computer to have a network adapter card. You can use wireless Internet on a broad range of devices, including tablets and smartphones. The router supports Wi-Fi protected set up, which allows you to get online without the need to pair your device with the router. Your router will automatically choose the best wireless channel available in your area, so you don’t need to hassle with manually finding the right channel. You can use the router wirelessly for up to 15 devices at once.

Speed

Tesco promises that their current router has a new N specification which doubles the speeds of older G routers that were once used. While the speed you can achieve online depends on a variety of factors, this router will support fast browsing and also gives a wider range of signal, so you can still browse quickly from another room. Other factors that influence your speed include where you live and the size of the files and programs that you download.

Security Standards

The router given by Tesco has a built in firewall which is able to monitor the data that is being passed into your network and refuse harmful data. This can help you avoid viruses on your computer and other malware which might place you at risk. You can also password protect your wireless network, which is an added layer of security. With a network password, people in the vicinity will not be able to jump onto your wireless network using their own device. For instance, your neighbour may be able to see your network on his own network connections, but he won’t be able to sign on to the wireless network without the password.

Associated Costs

You are not charged to use the router, but there is a one-time 5 pound charge when the router is sent to your home. The fee is assigned to your first broadband bill. Because Tesco retains ownership of the router, you will be responsible for handing it back if you ever switch to a different broadband provider or cause it damage. Most routers can last for many years if treated properly. If your router becomes obsolete for any reason, Tesco will provide you with a new model that allows you to stay online.

Your Tesco router will work best when it is attached to the master phone line jack in your home – the router also serves as the modem, and when you use a phone jack that is not the master port your download speeds can suffer. Tesco also recommends using the provided filter when you attach the router to the phone line. This will help separate the data used over your landline and the data that is use for broadband Internet service. Your router must stay connected to your landline at all times, and the line must be actively working for your broadband to stay live.

There is little question that anger can be a strong motivator, pushing one to great lengths. Certainly one can achieve admirable goals while motivated by an inner rage. Some of the most famous people in the world have been motivated by a personal fury. But I would not classify such people as successful. I was once angry at the world for all the chaos, turmoil, hatred and crime that I observed. It was easy to remain that way for years, but I came to learn the truth about being motivated by anger.

Perhaps anger is good for the professional athlete; as far as physical exertion and athletic accomplishment are concerned, anger could be positive to a large extent. But winning the sports game is not the same as the lifelong success game.

There are lessons to be learned from being angry. Rage or fury is very often used as a substitute for confidence, or perhaps a replacement for insecurity or fear. But ultimately anger is a false motivator; although it can bring about some level of achievement, anger clouds judgment and skews perception. Anger makes one totally subjective and does not allow for the possibility of objectivity. Therefore, any goal achieved at the hand of anger, is not a success to be enjoyed in the long term. One cannot truly enjoy anything if angry.

A strong Abundant Life Coach will suggest that mental Preparation (having our emotional house in order) is a necessary step within sustained success. But like all mental/emotional barriers, we must realize and accept its existence in order to eliminate. Illumination leads to elimination. Anger is an enemy of love and therefore an enemy of success in life. To overcome anger is to remove one obstacle from a pathway to success.

The 3 most commonly used valuation methods are the Income, Market, & Asset approach. With the income approach, a business value is based upon the earnings the enterprise generates. Buyers are most concerned with the amount of earnings that the company produces should they acquire the business. The net ordinary income, utilized for tax reporting purposes, does not properly reflect the true earnings of the company based on the non-cash, discretionary & non-recurring items that are expensed by the business owner. Earnings are kept low to achieve the goal of reducing taxes. Therefore, to calculate the true earning capacity of the company, the P&L statements need to be adjusted during a valuation to determine SDE or EBITDA. Re-casting the financial statements will standardize (or normalize) the company earnings through the exclusion of discretionary, variable and non-recurring components, allowing an objective comparison to be made between two or more companies. By applying a multiple to the EBITDA or SDE amount, consistent with the industry sector and a weighting of the issues affecting the business, will derive the business value.

What is Sellers Discretionary Earnings (SDE)?
Sellers Discretionary Earnings is utilized for businesses with under $1mm in adjusted earnings. These businesses often have the owner managing the company and receiving a salary. With these small enterprises it is critical to determine what the owner benefit is as opposed to the earnings of the company. This is accomplished through a series of profit and loss statement adjustments termed add-backs that are made to the pre-tax company earnings. In some instances, there are negative add-backs as in the case with a business that owns real property (e.g. the building & land) where the owner is compensating himself a below market rent or a family employee working for the company who is receiving a below market salary. In both of these cases, an adjustment is made to normalize the expense to the current market value.

The most common adjustments used during the re-casting process are:
1. Add-back one owner’s total compensation
a. Salary
b. Payroll Taxes
c. Retirement Contributions e.g. 401K
d. Insurance
e. Perks (Health Club, etc)

2. Add-back interest expense

3. Add-back discretionary expenses
a. Donations
b. Personal Cell Phones
c. Travel, Meals, & Entertainment
d. Owners Vehicles (not used in business)

4. Add-back non-cash expenses
a. Depreciation
b. Amortization

5. Add-back Non-recurring expenses
a. Fines / Bank Penalties
b. Attorney fees (e.g. sale of business consultation)

6. Adjust Lease to Fair Market Value

What is Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation Amortization (EBITDA)?
EBITDA is used to define the earnings of the company for businesses with adjusted income greater than $1mm. Here, the owner/investor is typically not active in the direction or daily management of the business and will hire a general manager to perform that function. Therefore, the EBITDA calculation will differ from SDE as it incorporates the general managers salary in the earnings calculation as an expense. EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that is used to determine profitability and to make comparisons between companies and industries as it eliminates the impact of the financing and accounting decisions made. An easy way to determine EBITDA is to subtract the owners compensation and benefits from SDE. The EBITDA dollar amount will be lower than SDE but the multiple used in the valuation formula will be higher, often 2-2.5 times the SDE multiple. Therefore, as one would anticipate the FMV of the same business calculated using either method should be very close to each other. If not, an assessment as to why and which (or what other method(s)) must be undertaken.
