In message , Tx2 writes Any ideas? Lots, but only a couple relevant here... Group policy springs to mind, you can set up a logoff message IIRC but you can also remove the logoff button and give them only shutdown, restart and cancel if you so wish. Careful with GPs though, very careful. It's easy to lock...

Having a bit of a problem trying to access one of my two homebased PC's via RemotelyAnywhere ( http://www.remotelyanywhere.com/ ) using No-ip (http://www.no-ip.com/ ) . I can access my main PC (which is hooked up to a D-Link DGL 4300 router) but I'm having trouble accessing a wireless laptop which the router sees. With this router I have used: Advanced | Virtual Server | and used, for the...

Hi All, Forgive me if I'm in the wrong place, but I'd like some advice on putting together a file server for a home network.The intention is that this will be an always-on, lightweight (in terms of functionality), robust repository for all types of media: music and photos primarily, but I'm thinking about something reasonably future- proof so I guess it should be capable of video streaming. Due...

Hi, I am to order QWest DSL and construct home network, I have 2 laptop computers at home and I want the network to be wireless. I was thinking I need to buy DSL modem for DSL interface and a wireless router for the whole home wireless coverage. But I just realize that actually I can just use one wireless DSL modem, that should do the job, right? Maybe a seperate router have enhanced...

My laptop integrated Ethernet port having given up the ghost, I've resorted to using wireless. On XP, all is OK, generally, but on Linux, OpenSuse 10.2, it's been a battle. I'm using ndiswrapper 1.43, and eventually got the cardbus Linksys wpc54g working, although not 100% OK. Then I tried a couple of usb devices. The easiest to install was a Belkin F5D7050A. Each can be made to...

I've just bought a D-link DP-301P+ parallel print server. Everything seems to work fine with my HP 970cxi printer except for two things: 1) The ink statistics will not show - I'm not too bothered about this. 2) When any of the PCs on my network are first turned on and print to the printer (which is still 'off'), the printer refuses to power up. If then powered up by hand, it prints some...

I have just set up a wireless network at home between my desktop and laptop. Using a D-link adsl2+router (DSLG6424T). Everything is working as it should but I'm trying to secure it properly. The manual that came with it is thin on detail. I have change the default login password from admin to something else (this is for access to the router via a web browser 192.168.1.1), changed the SSID name...

I am trying to setup my camera so it shoots me my pictures to my email. But I am having trouble, no matter what I do, I can't get it to work, it says "unknown host" and "connect: can't route host". I think my ip address is right so if anyone knows, that would be great.

Hi I have a Netgear DG834G ADSL router/modem If I surf using HTTP to the external IP address I get the login prompt to log in to the router. This is not good for security but I cant seem to disable it, Any ideas ?

I have replaced my home network in order to be able to get the full benefit of the Virgin Media 20 mbps service (my old router only had a 10base WAN so I was only getting 7 mbps). I have three PC's on the network, all of which can surf the internet (at the 20 mbps rate) but they cannot "see" each other and use the printers etc, any body got any ideas ? Terry

I can't see any settings on the NIC preferences to increase

I have an older Access Point that only supports WEP. I've heard that if one routes any WiFi traffic over a VPN connection then that would nulify the vulnerability of the WEP protocol. I have a router (Vigor 2600) that has a built in VPN server, I have used this successfully for external VPN connections to my network but I cannot get a connection from within my LAN. It hangs on 'Verifying...
