In message , Robert Moir writes Also consider that once you touch a computer, you'll "own" it and all its problems. If something totally unrelated happens to it 10 mins after you go out the door, you'll probably get the blame. I think Robert understates this. There's no "probably" about it -- you WILL get the blame. A good...

Can anyone tell me whether this device is ADSL2+ compatible. Ivechecked the Netgear spec and it cites ADSL but Ive done a googleproduct search and am finding hits for DG834GT and ADSL2+

Just starting to plan a small home wireless network... Based on personal experience, could anyone recommend a sound, reliable wireless PCI adaptor that I can install in a PC to be used both under Windows 98SE and GNU/Linux Ubuntu 6.06. I also need this to work with the all-in-one Netgear DG834GT wireless modem/router. I was thinking of going with the Netgear WG311 wireless network card.

Completely noo to all this and looking for advice. I am currently thinking of setting up a totally wireless home network centered around the Netgear DG834GT all-in-one modem/router/WAP/switch to connect 2 PCs, a laptop and wireless printer/scanner. But if the wireless connectivity should fail, say, in one of the PCs (e.g a faulty wireless PCI adaptor), then I guess I could slot in a...

" Nel" wrote in message ... I was asked a while ago to sort out a 'friend of a friend's' wireless network. Yesterday, I finally got round round to it. They had a new Belkin Wireless ADSL router and the original TalkTalk one which they had given up trying to get working themselves. After eliminating one after another...

My question is this: If I install a wireless PCI adaptor into my PC now, will I be able to use the same card to make a wired ethernet connection to my wireless modem/router. i.e can a wireless card be used in non-wireless mode? TIA, Ed

I don't have enough hair left to tear out any more..........maybe you can help me keep what little remains........ ;) I have a W2K desktop system with a Netgear DGB34G router. Connected via USB is an Epson RX520. I'm trying to get a laptop running Vista Home Premium to print with no success, although an XP laptop has no problems. The Vista laptop keeps asking for an updated printer driver,...

I have a DG834G V2 and it only covers part of my house. I am looking to upgrade, so wondered what would be the best option? 1. Fit something like this http://www.wirelesspro.co.uk/products/ANT-24-OM-9-DUCK/ to the existing setup. 2. Upgrade to the DG834PN and use the MIMO system with new adaptors. (£69.99 for router and adaptor, £28.50 PCMIA card) 3. Upgrade to the DG834N and have to fork out...

Hi I've recently set up broadband for my mother, and I'm a bit unsure about the download speed she's getting. She's with Newnet, on their 1gig a month for a tenner option - fine for her and no throttling afaik. Her router, a Netgear Rangemax 108mbps wireless, is syncing at 2816kbps, so I'd have expected a d/l speed of around 1800 kbps. She's only getting around 950 kbps

Does anyone know what CDHR.EXE is and why it keeps popping up on my system suddenly? This past few days its been appearing quite a lot.... Is it a virus? Thanks

Hi, Can anyone please help me, if I have a server with a gigabit card in it, and this then connects to several 10/100 switchs that are daisy chained, therefore limiting the network to 100meg, if I put in a gigabit switch between the server and the other 10/100 switches, then ran cables from that to each of the10/100 switchs, would I get 100meg on each switch or would it still be limited to...

Im looking for a XP desktop solution to display live network connection data. I only want a list of connected computers that is maybe updated every 30 seconds. An ideas? Thanks

Hi all, I have 2 laptops and a desktop which I use to connect to the internet wirelessly via a wireless router. The 2 laptops connect and work perfectly. The desktop wirelessly connects, works fine, but then randomly after a few hours although it still SAYS it is connected and an IPCONFIG still shows the correct IP info, I cannot ping the machine, and the machine cannot ping the router/other 2...

..COM, .ORG, .NET, ... - How about .WS for WebSite or Western Samoa (tiny island nation, deep in the South Pacific)? They had to convince an entire nation to trust them on what appeared to be an idea. It would be difficult, at best. The date was set for Mike and Alan to meet with the leading figures of Samoa, including the King and his Prime Minister. "I had to make certain the Samoans...

Is anyone currently using some web proxy software on their home network? I need to setup a web proxy to allow a remote site of mine to access the internet - only needs to be for a few days whilst we have our cisco kit configured. Any recommendations ... just need basic web proxy for half a dozen users for upto a week so one that comes with a full functional trial would be fine too - theres...

If these are set incorrectly in an ADSL router, would it explain why a connection can't be made? For example, I'm trying to set up a Netgear DG834G in Qatar (PPPoE, going by the settings in the current Speedtouch modem). The "autodetect" didn't come back after 10+ mins but it seemed to have the settings right (VPI/VCI 8/35 respectively for Qatar), however even once I put in the...

I need to extend the wifi range and have a spare WRT54GS router doing nothing. Both running DD-WRT and I have tried WDS many times with zero success so I just need to set up the second router as an AP to extend the range. Anyone know a good link to show me how do achive this? TIA cheers,

I've currently got a wireless ADSL router downstairs at the corner of the house where the BT socket comes in, in the hallway. Signal downstairs is OK, but upstairs it is rubbish. There are no other BT sockets in the house, other than the master socket in the hallway. Trying to think of an effective way of getting wireless across the whole house and thought if I could get a homeplug...

Netgear makes products that allow ethernet networking over the domestic mains supply. I got two of these: http://www.netgear.com/Products/PowerlineNetworking/PowerlineEthernetAdapters/XE103.aspx?detail=Specifications One for the router and the other for a PC. (You must have at least two units for the system to work). However, one of the units died after only seven days and I was wondering if...

I've got a mac with Windows XP 64 installed and i want to network it to a PC with Windows XP 32. I've bought a 'Sitecom' wired router and gone through the network setup wizard on each... but i cant see the files on the other computer (on both). The Sitecom people tell me it should work. Any ideas on whats wrong/how I should do this/or what type of router i should use?
