    Wireless disconnection problems with new WAP

    One last bump. Had the cable people come out and check the lines which did show a weak signal, but I'm still confused as to why my wireless disconnections sometimes. Ill try a new channel and moving the AP to see if that helps.

    Wireless disconnection problems with new WAP

    Another bump. Still not sure what I should be looking for to fix this. Some days the wireless works fine while others I have trouble. I'm starting to suspect my laptop is also having trouble because it has cooling problems which will require me to reapply the CPU paste (which will be annoying)

    Wireless disconnection problems with new WAP

    InSSIDer shows me as being the only AP in my immediate vicinity on channel 1. I'll see if its the microwave causing the trouble but I'm trying to figure out why this has become so troublesome recently. We're in the process of getting rid of all 2.4Ghz phones in the house to see if that will...

    Wireless disconnection problems with new WAP

    I originally had problems staying connected with a few wireless devices in my house with a five year old TRENDnet WAP. I figured it was time to upgrade to 11N anyway, and upgraded to a TP-Link TLWA901ND. It worked great for a few weeks but now my laptop disconnects from the wireless every 15-60...

    Anybody know where I can find a replacement SN45GV2 mobo?

    Hi, my SN45 died a few months ago, and I suddenly got the urge to resurrect the box. Anybody know where I can find a replacement motherboard for it? It doesn't have to be the exact same one, I just want something that fits in the shuttle (have a lot of processors laying around)

    Is there a way I can set something up on my network so that when someone tries to open the vids I have on the HTTP, that they can buffer their vids and play them like youtube? Because my laptops on wireless don't always get a consistent connection, and if I could pause and buffer them to load...

    Best IT field to get a degree in?

    So I shouldn't get a networking type degree I should just look at Computer Science? Wouldn't a Business Information type degree fall into that spectrum?

    Right now for college, I am looking at some kind of Business Information Systems type course (like working with computer hardware and networking the most).

    Upgrade Video Card Or Wait?

    One of my system's mobo died, and I will be redoing it. I am going with a PCIE x16 mobo, so I will need a new video card among other things. My main system also runs PCIE x16, and I've been thinking of upgrading the video card in that system too. The main system already has a X800GTO, and I...

    Unable To Boot Two Separate Systems All of A Sudden

    I swapped the memory out and I also did a disk copy to a brand new disk. So those two are out. The last part I think it could be is video card or power supply, but I'm pretty sure its not he PS.

    Unable To Boot Two Separate Systems All of A Sudden

    My bad on the double post. The thing is giga, when I get to the screen where I would tell it to do a repair install, that option is not there like it used to be. It seems like I must do a reformat. I would not like to, but if I need to get my system back up, I'll just use my new disk I bought to...

    Unable To Boot Two Separate Systems All of A Sudden

    I think I have found a problem. I copied the Windows install from an older hard disk to a new one, and the new one is now the D: drive on the system #2. Would that prevent Windows from booting safe mode and regular Windows? I'm grasping at straws here, I want this shit fixed and its starting to...
