I am trying to use my Playstation 4 controller with my PC (which has HDMI out to my TV about 10-15 feet away). I bought the Kinivo BTD-400 and have horrible range from it. I contacted the manufacturer and they sent me a replacement, same issue. It can go across the room up to about 15 feet, but...

So the router worked perfectly as an access point, what didn't work was taking a CAT6 connection and then becoming a switch for a wired computer on the other side of my house. I removed all CAT cables and the wifi portion still worked, so to me clearly the wired part isn't working. I disabled...

Ok, I will definitely try option #1. I think I tried this briefly and then somehow couldn't get it working. I do believe the verizon router is required to work with their service... I find the TP-link menus are pretty confusing, so I tend to have a problem figuring out the exact setting to...

I've had a 50mbit FIOS connection since July of last year, and results have been so-so. With a huge number of wireless connections (~15) plus 4 wired connections, I seem to have to reboot their router at least once a week. Certain devices like my Nest thermostats, and Chromecast have been a...

Ok, any suggestion where to get it from? The Egg, Amazon, etc?

Any other suggestions? I might just grab something off of Amazon to make sure she doesn't have to wait 2-3 weeks :c/

Thanks for the recommendation. I was hoping for an i3 and a decent screen size, so this could fit the bill. Only downside is the 9 day build time... oof!

1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Office applications, printing/scanning. Looking for a laptop! 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included? $400-500 would be ideal... 3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state...

Ok, thanks. I'll order this cable and give it a shot. http://www.amazon.com/Mediabridge-ULTRA-HDMI-Cable-Foot/dp/B008DW9H56/

Quick and perhaps dumb question - can I output to my TV with just an HDMI cable, or will I need a separate cable to carry the audio signal? The PC has a GTX 660 video card, and is going into an Onkyo receiver. It is about 40 feet away when I consider wrapping it behind furniture, etc.

Ok, so all I need is a single HMDI to a VGA cable... nice. They sell one for a crisp $38. I'm sure I can get one for <$10

I think the Dell agent is an idiot. After 20 minutes I get the sense that they don't know what they are talking about, and are going to get me to clone the same desktop onto 2 monitors using a splitter... I was under the impression that you need a video card that can handle two different...

Almost positive without looking... they are really old. Edit: chatting with Dell now... looks like you can run a second VGA with the HDMI splitter cable!

Fair enough. I didn't see dual outputs for VGA or DVI - am I missing it somewhere? I was hoping to get a look at the back of the tower to see what was there, but they only have a single photo of the front.
