  • TheTrixs says:

    y are people having a go at you….the title said exactly what you were gonna do so why bother saying shit like poor video

  • nikkolei says:

    @stevenscottoddballz the problem is your internet browser…..try to use google chrome with adblocker.. trust me no more advertising in videos :D

  • stevenscottoddballz says:

    @nikkolei
    O.k., that was QUITE some time ago that I posted this. The NEW problem is the speed between clicking a link & when the page loads: about 45 to 60 SECONDS. If I’m watching a video, sometimes the video skips. If the page loads an advertisement, I have to wait between the changing & loading of the new advertisement before I can do anything.

    @stevenscottoddballz i think its your ISP that has a problem.

  • stevenscottoddballz says:

    I have a message in my System Tray by the icon that looks like 2 computers linked. {Interesting, since I don’t HAVE 2 computers. JUST one.} Hovering over the icon shows me the message:
    “Local Area Connection – Speed: 10.0 Mbps – Status: Limited or no connectivity”
    How do I fix this?

    You’ll need to enter the wireless settings into the laptop that is not connecting. It’s always a good idea to document your wireless settings and keep them in a safe place so you can refer to them when you want a new computer to connect to your router. What you need to know is the network name (SSID), encryption type, and password.

  • sunactc says:

    You probably mean a wireless network adapter, not a wireless router. The router is the piece of hardware that connects via a cable to your modem. Your laptop will use a wireless adapter to connect wirelessly to that . To check, you need to go to device manager (Right-click My Computer, go to properties, click Hardware tab, click Device Manager). Expand the Network Adapters section and look for anything that says “Wireless” or “802.11a/b/g”

  • sunactc says:

    I’m not sure what you are asking, but if you want to know how to use the command, just type “ipconfig /?” at the command prompt to get a list of command options.

  • sunactc says:

    Truth be told if you have an Internet connection to share between computers you’ll spend less time and money buying a router than you will making ICS work. Besides, if you use ICS one computer will depend on the other to get to the Internet, which means if one breaks then neither have Internet access.

  • sunactc says:

    DNS servers will be set automatically by your router. If you don’t have 1 DNS server then never fear, that’s probably how it was intended.

  • sunactc says:

    If we’re talking about a consumer-grade wired router (like a Linksys or D-Link you can pick up at Best Buy) you should be able to just plug the ethernet cable into the PC’s and the router and plug the internet connection from your modem into the Internet port on the router.

    A wireless router takes more setup. Each PC needs a wireless card, and you need to configure the same settings (SSID/network name and encryption type and password) on both the router and the computers.

    Reich is my last name… no Nazi connotations intended :) Thanks for the compliments though! I always thought I sounded like a nerdy Casey Kasem.

  • Brasik1 says:

    I don’t know about that word ‘Reich’, as Third Reich which still inspires horror in European minds. Lovely presentation and, unlike that other chap, your voice doesn’t send me to sleep! Just a tad too fast at some points but I’m sure you know already.

  • kukooart says:
