Hi all, We're pretty much stumped as to why we're having this problem. We've been with our ISP for nearly 2 years without this problem, and about last week suddenly 2 of the 5 desktop PCs on the network suddenly developed the local internet access issue. 3 of the 5 desktop PCs use...

Hello, I am having serious issues with my port forwarding. This is my long story made short: I used to have a modem which couldn't be port-forwarded, so I got a new one from my ISP. I called my ISP (I have ADSL internet connection) so they opened 2 ports, they did so successfully. The ports are...

I have had windows 7 installed from an OEM disk for about 6+ months. I have always had auto updates disabled. last night I shutdown the computer just to find 98 updates being installed. I was just a little disappointed, for a couple of reasons. one reason is it seems to take longer to boot after...

I installed these portions of Windows Live within my Win 8 Dev Preview. I am able to connect to, read my Hotmail mail, answer my mail, etc. I am having problems connecting to my ISP pop server to check that account, but since this is an early preview, and not my working OS, I am not real...

Paying by the Gigabyte and Getting Locked In The greatest fraud ever perpetrated against consumers may exist at the old offices of Enron, or maybe some Federal Reserve banks. But here in the United States, it has not been uncommon to see cellphone companies gouge customers under the excuse that...

Trying to get two computers running on one IP through a simple dynex switch. Can comp 2 mimic the ISP's address? Edit: Or could I manually assign the homegroup an IP for the ISP and split it from there like a router? Trying to do this without a router.

Belkin told the following will work but my trust is here. I run my isp cable to my modem>router> desktop and the laptop is connected wirelessly. I am going to visit a friend with the same isp - Can I use the same setup at her house(using my passsphrase) or should I run the ethernet cable...

My ISP lmits my download to almost nothing, except for three hours in the early morning. I have a monitor in my notification area that tells how many MB I have left (this is from the ISP), and during the day with nothing running my MB slowly drops. I installed NetBalancer, to see where all the...

Need a little help from an expert on Remote Assistance… I use windows remote assistance (RA) often to preclude the painfully grueling challenge of explaining computer stuff to elderly (and grossly inept) computer users. RA works great to show these users how to do something in a snap, but...

Hey there guys. So here's my problem : I've been experiencing in the last 5-6 months a progressive loss of internet speed. I've called my ISP tech support and they told me to do a reset to the modem for about 10s. It worked lol. For about 1 or 2 days -.- Then it went to it's same position...

Anyone else having problems with the forum not responding and getting time outs? Looks like it might be my ISP. It appears Road Runner is showing many areas of degradation..

Hello. I just got Windows 7 and already stomped into issues. I can see other PC's in the network. That's wouldn't be so bad if I didn't know they can see me too. I'm not sociopath or something but I prefer privacy. Now I think it's my ISP's fault. I'm connected to a LAN (local?) at all times and...

I have a Dell Studio 1555; Intel 2 Duo CPU, T6600 @2.20GHz, 4 GB RAM and it has worked great up until 3 days ago. There was an issue with our ISP being down this past Saturday. Once they got it back up and running, I used the internet for maybe 20 minutes and then got the first of many BSODs...
