    System Restore on Shutdown/Startup/Logout

    Our school is very hard up for cash so if there is a cheaper or free option for this that would be better. My colleague has told me that there are some open source options but I have never looked into it. We also want to know what the fastest and cheapest method for cloning a pc would be.

    System Restore on Shutdown/Startup/Logout

    Comcast Router/Modem

    Again I want thank you all for your help. As I said in the OP, I am currently using AT&T. It is only DSL however and we originally signed up for the 6 mbps package ($40/month) and they told us our location could not/would not support that speed so we actually get 3 mbps at the same price. The...

    Comcast Router/Modem

    Thank you all for your advice. Yes I am planning on getting the residential package for Comcast. I am currently using one of AT&T's 2-Wire Gateway modems which functions as my router as well since it has wireless capabilities. In terms of why I'm going with Comcast, AT&T has a really hard and...

    I'm considering moving over to comcast for my ISP because I'm paying AT&T $40/month for 3 Mb/s download speed and around .45 Mb/s upload speed. I have 3 questions: 1. Is this move a good idea? 2. Should I get a modem or router or both? 3. What is a good suggestion for a router? I...
