Hiya, I am having boradband activated on 4th August and will be self-installing. Karoo will be my ISP (I have no choice as I do not live in BT land). Could anyone recommend which combined router/firewall/wireless/switch to use to connect my small network to the net (3 PC's). It would replace an existing 5 port 100 Mbps switch. I play online games (CS, BF1942 etc), do video conferencing (MS...

I would be grateful for comments from those whose ISP's are using the Brightmail antispam service. Here at BTO we are finding that it is extremely ineffective at filtering certain types of spam, and very slow at responding to obvious patterns of more or less identical spam with clearly obvious subject lines and repeated domains in the html content. We have been able to get virtually no...

Hi, My exchange is being upgraded to ADSL on the 22nd October and I need to start thinking about converting my ISDN setup. Due to BT saying "exchange unviable, unviable, still unviable" and nothing on the horizon I signed up for ISDN and will still have about 6 months on the contract come Oct 22nd. I know BT will waive the remaining term of the contract if you sign up

I don't 'need' a faster service, I just 'want' one. :) To be honest, the most important factor for me is the permanent connection. The speed isn't a big issue, except for the (all too frequent) occasions when I have multiple downloads going. Speed is one of those things that in computer terms you can never have too much of (like hard drive space), so seeing as how faster services are now...

I think my PC is sick, it often refuses to boot and it being a real nightmare. However today, for the second time, reinstalling AOL 8 seemed to fix the boot up problem (I only tried this as eventually when it did boot the broadband connection wasn't there). Anyone else found this or know why? (No AOL-bashing please - I know I'm a sucker already!) Tom

I've embarked on an experimental project which involves serving web-like content over TCP to remote users. I've been completely happy with plain dialup access for my ordinary net access, but realise that this will be insufficient if I plan to be able to serve several remote users concurrently. I will require additional bandwidth and will benefit from an always-on connection. I have two...

Hi, in the process of trying to find a cheap cable router, and when I search for details via Google (UK) I find pages of sites with different names all offering the cheapest deals on the web for cable routers. Strangely, when you click through for details they all point to Amazon. Does this indicate that Amazon is the cheapest (a couple of squid cheaper than Dabs on the router I am chasing -...

http://www.bulldogdsl.com/ Not sure how the above are rated, or if they can help you, but they might be a consideration for you to look at...? You could pop over to www.adslguide.org.uk and look at the list of ISP's and then compare them to each other. Also have a look in their forums. -- Regards

I have just signed up for ADSL and have asked BT to disconnect my 2nd phone line. No Problem until I asked if they could reconnect my extension to my main telephone number. Thay want over a £100 if I get a new extension or I can get an engineer at £120 for the first hour!! What can I do?

Hi, I already have Nildram ADSL and an established network, with a Solwise SAR705 modem/router and a D-Link DWL-1000AP. I was looking to add another wireless AP and started searching, and also noted from NG posts that AP/routers were much the same prices as an AP.

If you can't get wires based (BT) ADSL, is satellite based BB worth it? What's the cost, and the technical issues involved? Is it as fast, faster, or doesn't compete? A friend is asking me, and I would like to be able to answer him factually.
